This RX 9060 XT gaming PC is here to put an end to such thoughts, because for just $850 you're getting a build with a current-gen GPU that trades blows with the RTX 5060 Ti. Sure, you're getting an older CPU and 1 TB SSD, but this is a seriously great entry into PC gaming. You can upgrade everything else and keep that 9060 XT in there down the line if you need to start using this rig for productivity tasks.Key specs: Ryzen 5 5600X | RX 9060 XT 8 GB | 32 GB DDR4 | 1 TB SSDView Deal 1440pSave $627.

It's a VA panel, which is good for contrasts but loses out to an IPS in a few ways, but it's around $10 cheaper than a competitive IPS.

You might be better off saving more money and buying a 16 GB version, though. It doesn't have more shaders or higher clock speeds, but the extra VRAM should come in handy in the future.Key specs: 2048 shaders | 3130 MHz boost | 8 GB GDDR6RX 9060 XT 8 GB price check: Amazon $269.99 | Best Buy $269.99 | Newegg $279.99 | B&H Photo $379.99View Deal RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB MSRP: $379Save $56.999.

You're probably better off saving a bit more money and waiting for an affordable 16 GB model, though.

It might be an 85 W variant, but DLSS 4 and Nvidia's AI doohickies should make up a fair bit of the difference when pushing that 1600p panel. 32 GB of DDR5 is nice to see, and it looks like there's plenty of upgrade potential here too, should you wish to up the RAM or cram in a bigger SSD.Key specs: RTX 5070 | Ryzen AI 7 350 | 16-inch | 1600p | 165 Hz | 32 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD |Price check: Best Buy $1,399.99View Deal Save $801.2411.

That's a graphics card that holds its own against Nvidia's mid-range RTX 5070, and it has 16 GB of VRAM to boot. You're only getting 16 GB of memory, which you might want to upgrade before too long, and ditto the storage, but you're getting something approaching high-end performance for under $1,000 here, which is fantastic.Key specs: Core i5 14400F | RX 9070 | 16 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSDView Deal Back to top ^ Black Friday gaming PC deals Best gaming PC 2025All our current recommendations1.

Then, when you're ready to upgrade, all you'll have to do is slap a discrete GPU in somewhere down the line (maybe an RTX 5060 or RX 9060 XT) and you'll have a PC capable of some full-fat 1080p and 1440p gaming.Key specs: Ryzen 5 5600GT | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSDView Deal Save $50Zotac Mek | RTX 5050: was $799.99 now $749.99 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼The cheapest RTX 50-series graphics card is now with us, and it's giving gamers a genuine option around $800. To be clear, this is a GPU with fewer cores than the RTX 4060, but the benefit is you get to use Multi Frame Gen. Latency will be poor if you start at a low frame rate—so don't get trying to max out your settings in most modern titles—but if you start off with your frame rate above, say, 60, you should be on solid ground. For a cheap cost, this is a decent entry into PC gaming, just don't expect the world. It also has a lovely fish tank chassis, which is nice to see in this price bracket.Key specs: Ryzen 5 5500 | RTX 5050 | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSDView Deal Save $100ABS Cyclone Aqua | Arc B580: was $899.99 now $799.99 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼This build is for those who don't mind throwing at least a little caution to the wind by opting for the GPU underdog, Intel. Why would you do that? Well, apart from doing us all a service in helping bolster competition, you're also getting some raw raster horsepower for a very good price. It's not quite as powerful as the RTX 5060 overall, but it has more VRAM, and with this build you're getting a very reasonable CPU and 32 GB of RAM. Just beware that Intel GPUs aren't quite as well-supported by as many games as Nvidia and AMD ones.Key specs: Core i5 13400F | Arc B580 | 32 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSDView Deal Save $250Cobratype Canebrake Elite | RX 9060 XT 8 GB: was $1,099.99 now $849.99 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼Who said you can't get decent gaming performance for cheap in 2025?

Sure, you're only getting DDR4 RAM and 1 TB of storage, but these things are common at the sub-$1,000 price point. DDR4 should serve you fine with this budget build, and storage can be upgraded easily. It's a great way to get started PC gaming with a friendly price tag.

The RX 9060 XT is very capable for a budget card, even this version with 8 GB of VRAM. But we're dealing with an older platform with the DDR4 RAM and 5000-series Ryzen CPU. It'll get you by doing some lite to moderate gaming at 1080p and 1440p, and that Cooler Master chassis is a big selling point as you're getting a dinky little build, which usually means slapping a SFF tax on top.Key specs: Ryzen 7 5700X | RX 9060 XT 8 GB | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSDView Deal Save $110MSI Codex R2C | RTX 5060: was $999 now $889 at BHPhotoRead moreRead less▼This is a great entry into current-gen PC gaming for a reasonable price. It cuts few corners, too, with a pretty recent CPU and some fast DDR5 RAM. 32 GB would be better, but 16 GB is a good start, and you have a platform that you can upgrade from, here, too. The RTX 5060 in this machine should be capable of churning out frames at 1080p and even 1440p in many cases, especially with that fancy new Multi Frame Gen enabled.

The CPU might be a little old now and it might be running DDR4 RAM, but that'll power the RX 9060 XT at the heart of this build just fine. Crucially, that's the version with 16 GB of VRAM, so you shouldn't have to worry about any video memory bottlenecks.Key specs: Ryzen 7 5700X | RX 9060 XT 16 GB | 32 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSDView Deal Save $801.24Skytech Shadow | RX 9070: was $1,799.99 now $998.75 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼A gaming PC with an RX 9070 in is an absolutely amazing deal at this price.

The RTX 5070 at the heart of this PC might not offer quite the same raw performance as its AMD-flavored competitors, but it does get Multi Frame Gen and is a great overclocker.

And this is all-AMD, too, as it's also rocking an X3D chip. Admittedly that's the previous-gen Ryzen 7 7800X3D, but it's not too long ago that this was the best CPU for gaming, and even now it's not too far behind.Key specs: Ryzen 7 7800X3D | RX 9070 XT | 32 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSDView Deal Save $830ABS Eurus Aqua | RTX 5070 Ti: was $2,699.99 now $1,869.99 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼This isn't the absolute cheapst RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC around right now, but this isn't your average rig.

Combine that with the X3D chip you're getting—our favorite of the previous generation—and you have a truly great high-end build. There's a newer X3D chip in the CyberPowerPC build above, but if you prefer the brand or chassis here, you won't be losing out a ton.

It's an 80 W variant of Nvidia's second-from-bottom GPU, but given this machine has a 1080p screen, that shouldn't be too much of an issue. The SSD is small, and you're stuck with DDR4 RAM, but it's about as cheap as RTX 5060 machines go right now if you're budget won't stretch beyond this point.Key specs: RTX 5060 | Core i7 13620H | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR4 | 512 GB SSDPrice check: Best Buy $1,369.99View Deal Save $270Acer Nitro V 16 AI | RTX 5050: was $899 now $629 at WalmartRead moreRead less▼This is a pretty appealing price for a capable 16-inch gaming laptop with a modern GPU. Sure, it's an RTX 5050, which needs to be affordable to be worthwhile, but this Acer Nitro V 16 AI is certainly that. It has a good screen for the money, too. A 180 Hz, 1200p IPS.

This one's got a decent set of components for the price, including an 85 W variant of the RTX 5060. That puts it on the lower-powered side of things, as we found in our review, but at least it can take advantage of Multi Frame Gen and DLSS 4. Plus, a 1200p screen is a good match for this particular GPU, and its 165 Hz refresh rate is plenty nippy. It might not be mega-powered, but it's got the sort of specs that make it a very well-rounded laptop for all sorts of tasks, especially as you're getting 32 GB of RAM and a good-sized SSD thrown into the bargain.Key specs: RTX 5060 | Core i7 13620H | 16-inch | 1200p | 165 Hz | 32 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD |Price check: Amazon $1,235.32View Deal Save $90Lenovo Legion 5 | RTX 5060: was $1,189.99 now $1,099.99 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼Boo, boo to the 512 GB SSD. Still, it's one of the easiest things to upgrade on any gaming laptop, and this one provides you with a lovely OLED display, which is rare to see on a laptop at this price. The RTX 5060 might be one of Nvidia's lower-stack mobile GPUs, but DLSS and Frame Gen will be the great equaliser here to make the most of that 1600p panel. Lenovo makes some excellent gaming laptops, and this one gives you a fair bit of bang for your buck for the money.Key specs: RTX 5060 | Ryzen 7 260 | 15.1-inch | 1600p | 165 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD |Price check: Lenovo $1,099.99View Deal Acer Predator Helios Neo 14 | RTX 4070: $1,259.99 at AmazonRead moreRead less▼With a 110 W version of the older, yet still very capable RTX 4070, with wee Acer has plenty of grunt about it, and that 120 Hz refresh 1600p panel will make a really crisp screen for a 14-inch laptop. You're also getting a full 1 TB SSD alongside your 16 GB of soldered memory (no upgrades happening there) and a decent Meteor Lake CPU at its heart. It's one of Intel's more efficient chips, with six Performance and eight Efficient cores, which ought to help with the battery life of this portable machine.Key specs: RTX 4070 | Core Ultra 7 155H | 14-inch | 1600p | 120 Hz | 16 GB LPDDR5X | 1 TB SSD |View Deal Gigabyte Gaming A16 | RTX 5070: $1,349.99 at AmazonRead moreRead less▼Another Gigabyte gaming lappy, another good price. We've been very impressed by the design of this laptop, and while the RTX 5060 variant is a touch underpowered (although a good machine if you can find it for the right price), this 85 W RTX 5070-equipped machine is much more like it, even with the juice turned down a little. Like the RTX 5060 version above, you get a six Performance core, four Efficient Intel chip, 32 GB of DDR5, and a decently-sized SSD thrown into the bargain.

It might be an 85 W variant, but DLSS 4 and Nvidia's AI doohickies should make up a fair bit of the difference when pushing that 1600p panel. 32 GB of DDR5 is nice to see, and it looks like there's plenty of upgrade potential here too, should you wish to up the RAM or cram in a bigger SSD.Key specs: RTX 5070 | Ryzen AI 7 350 | 16-inch | 1600p | 165 Hz | 32 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD |Price check: Best Buy $1,399.99View Deal Save $475Asus TUF A18 | RTX 5070: was $1,924.99 now $1,449.99 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼If you prefer your gaming laptops on the larger side, how about this Asus TUF A18? It's got a massive 18-inch 1600p 240 Hz panel, which should make your games look absolutely brilliant. It's got a 115 W variant of the RTX 5070, which is a pretty good mobile GPU but will still need a DLSS helping hand to make the most of that display.

What's an RTX 5060 gaming laptop doing here at this price? Well, this is a super-slim and portable 14-inch lappy, and while the hardware inside isn't the most powerful you can get for the cash, the fact you can easily slip it in a shoulder bag is pretty impressive. Dollars to donuts its a low-wattage RTX 5060 variant, and the 1800p panel means you'll absolutely need to make use of DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation to make the most of its 120 Hz refresh rate, but still—hyper portable laptops come with caveats, and this is still a good machine for the price.

Our Dave tested the Vector 16 HX AI for weeks, and came away very impressed with the RTX 5080 version, and the RTX 5070 Ti version promises much of the same. The 1200p IPS screen is a good match for the GPU and CPU, which is of 20-core Intel stock, and while I'd like to see more RAM, it's a very easy upgrade to perform. I'd also like to see a bigger SSD. Still, for under $1,500, this one has to go in prime position, as an SSD is an easy thing to upgrade at a later date.Key specs: RTX 5070 Ti | Core Ultra 7 255HX | 16-inch | 1200p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD |Price check: Best Buy $1,799.99 (1 TB SSD variant)View Deal Save $200MSI Vector 16 HX AI | RTX 5080: was $2,199.99 now $1,999.99 at NeweggRead moreRead less▼I know, I know, it's still a lot of cash. But the truth is, it's difficult to find most RTX 5080 laptops for anything close to $2,000 right now, so this one actually represents pretty stunning value. Our Dave has been playing with this particular model recently and likes the value proposition you get when you take into account that mega GPU, although it is a bit of a hairdryer on full whack. Still, stick it in Balanced mode and the noise is much more reasonable, and it still performs about as well as the other RTX 5080 machines we've tested.

I've asked him, and everything. It's incredibly portable, gorgeous to behold, and pretty much the most desirable lappy on the planet right now. How's that for a deal?
