It's pretty amazing how quickly laptops have progressed from expensive, but ultimately underpowered, to the modern versions. Higher-end laptops have desktop-grade GPUs in them, so the tradeoff between power and portability is smaller and smaller. Prices, too, are at a point now where buying a laptop as a matter of convenience can land you a good machine at a great price.
With the insane cryptocurrency mining bubble right now, GPU prices are through the roof, so if you're after a gaming rig at a not-insane price, a laptop is a great place to start. Whether you just want something for work, school, or to replace a desktop, it's a great time to pick up a laptop. We'll be updating this list throughout the year with the best deals, so make sure to keep checking back.
Dell New Latitude 5590 for $1269
