Best Buy has major price cuts across new and open-box (excellent) ASUS gaming laptops

Following on from Memorial Day, cheap gaming laptops have been appearing quite frequently as of late. Best Buy, in particular, has been offering record-low prices across new models as well as huge discounts on gaming laptops out of the box, something that is well worth thinking about considering the extra savings that can be made.

For instance, the retailer has an ASUS ROG Zephyrus in excellent condition at a price of $674.99. As the laptop is usually priced at an MSRP of $1,399.99, this is a massive saving of $725 cutting the price by more than half. Best Buy assures that the laptop's condition "looks brand new" and "includes all the original parts/accessories". The only big difference is that it might not come with the packaging.

Alternatively, you can pick up the same great ASUS laptop in brand-new condition for $899.99, which is a discount of $500 (35%). It comes installed with an AMD Ryzen 7 processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card, 512GB SSD, 16GB DDR4 memory as well as Windows 11. The screen is 14 inches with the colouring being Moonlight White. It's one of the best cheap gaming laptop deals we've seen for a while, so take advantage while stock lasts.
