Whether you're looking for yourself or others, you can find some great gaming laptops at a discount this winter — which is good because PC gaming can get expensive fast.

A new gaming laptop lets you play your favorite titles on the go and also serves as a system you can use for work or web browsing. It's a great time to save on the best gaming laptop deals as Amazon, Best Buy, Newegg, Dell, and others are offering discounts.

While there are plenty of great deals out there with Intel, AMD, and Nvidia's latest mobile hardware, there may also be some older laptops, which you should definitely avoid. For instance, anything older than one generation is better off avoided.

If the deal doesn't hit the RAM or storage requirement, see if you can upgrade the RAM or storage down the line.

    Weird to see an image of an ASUS TUF model but no listing. And no ROG Strix G513/Strix 15? The pricepoint of the Ryzen models shame these things I'm seeing. I sense bias.

    Who buys the 3050 4GB models? You're better off with a 2060 6GB laptop for $700.

    And where exactly would you find a 2060 laptop for $700? At $700, you're normally seeing going to find a 1650.
