Best Buy is currently offering the Acer Predator Triton 300 SE i7/16GB/512GB/RTX 3060 Gaming Laptop for $999.99 shipped. Normally going for $1,600, this 38% discount or solid $600 price drop marks a return to the all-time low we’ve seen this model fall to. For comparison, Acer directly still offers this model at $1,600. Coming equipped with the, now previous generation, i7-12700H processor featuring 14 cores, it is able to cut through any game or application. The graphics horsepower is brought by the RTX 3060 GPU to drive the 14-inch 1920×1200 165Hz IPS display. It also comes with the latest spec 16GB DDR5 RAM and 512TB of PCIe Gen 4×4 SSD storage to have fast access to all your games. Rounding out this laptop is the power connector, an HDMI 2.1 output, dual USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports, a Thunderbolt 4 USB-C port, and a headset port. Head below for more.
On a tighter budget? Check out the Acer Nitro 5 i7/8GB/512GB/RTX 3050 Ti Gaming Laptop for $740 instead. Here you’ll be using the 11th gen Intel i7 processor with RTX 3050 Ti graphics, which is a step down from the 3060 present with the Acer option above. The screen is slightly larger at 15.6-inches and has a similar 1080p 144Hz resolution and refresh rate. The total amount of RAM available here is also cut down to 8GB though that is still plenty for most modern games to run well. Wi-Fi 6 support is also present here. One unique feature of the Nitro 5 that isn’t in many laptops is the Alexa Show Mode which allows you to use the machine as a Show-like device when you’re not busy playing games.
