Forget an RTX 4060 laptop at this price point, you can secure yourself an RTX 4070 for the same money. Not only does this machine come with a bigger GPU than most for the money, the rest of this laptop is awesome, too. A fantastic Ryzen 7040-series CPU is paired with 16 GB of DDR5 and a 1600p screen. Only downside is that 512 GB SSD, though you could swap it out for something bigger.
This Nitro 16 comes equipped with a Ryzen 7 7735HS processor, an eight-core/16-thread processor with heaps of performance. It's paired with 16 GB of DDR5 RAM. So far, so good. In combination with the RTX 4070 mobile GPU at its core, this laptop should take good advantage of its 2560 x 1600 screen—that's a 16:10 aspect ratio for more viewing space—and 165 Hz refresh rate.
If you're not the type to tinker then it's not much more money to swap the Nitro 16 for the Acer Predator 14, available at Amazon for. This features the same RTX 4070 GPU except a Core i7 13700H processor. It's also equipped with a 1600p screen, 16 GB DDR5 and a 1 TB SSD.It's not the prettiest gaming laptop you'll ever see but underneath the cheap-looking exterior is a pile of really nice hardware. That Intel CPU has 14 cores, 20 threads, and the GPU is a 140W RTX 4070.
I'd personally go with the Nitro 16 or Predator 14 given the choice, but the more options, the merrier.
