For an optimal gaming experience, gamers should seek out laptops with responsive screens and an ample number of ports for their accessories. A comprehensive guide to purchasing a gaming laptop by my colleague Devindra Hardawar explores the various factors to consider, including CPUs, GPUs, minimum specifications, and more. Our current top pick for the best gaming laptop is the Razer Blade 15 Advanced, equipped with an Intel Core i7 processor and an NVIDIA RTX 3070 graphics card, priced at $2,500.
The Blade 15 Advanced offers a 15-inch quad HD screen with a refresh rate of 240Hz, and different configurations are available, including Full HD 360Hz and 4K 144Hz versions. The Blade series stands out as one of the most refined gaming laptops on the market.
For budget-conscious gamers, the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 remains a solid option, although it was dethroned as our favorite model due to a $600 price increase from its 2022 refresh. Despite its elevated cost, it still boasts an impressive display, spacious trackpad, and ample ports in a thin profile.
