SAVE $170: The Acer Nitro V 15 gaming laptop (Intel Core i5-13420H, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is on sale for $599.99 at Acer, down from $769.99. That's a discount of 22%.


We're still caught in the depths of winter with little to do to keep our hands and minds busy. That might be why February is the perfect time to invest in a new gaming laptop and work through your backlog before you're in the mood to go touch some grass and get some Vitamin D this spring. And there's a great deal on an iteration of a gaming laptop that's a Mashable favorite.

As of Feb. 10, you can get the Acer Nitro V 15 gaming laptop on sale for $599.99. That's a discount of $170, or 22%.

This budget gaming laptop (in some different, more powerful specs) won a Mashable Choice Award in 2023. Mashable's Tech Editor Kimberly Gedeon gave the version with 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD a stellar 4.7 rating and thought it was especially good value for its under-$1,000 price.

You can grab this iteration at Acer for under $600, however, it only comes with 8GB RAM, so keep in mind it's likely best to use for lighter gameplay. If you're more into games like Fortnite, Minecraft, and The Sims, this is a great option, but games like Cyberpunk 2077 or Baldur's Gate 3 could lose their luster. Gedeon also dinged the V 15 for its loud fans, "mid" display, and "meh" battery life — but you can't ask for the moon at this price.
