You can grab the Acer Nitro V Gaming Laptop for $650 on Amazon, a solid $100 off its usual $750 price. We've been tracking this product for quite some time, and this is the lowest price we've seen. If you're in search of a solid gaming laptop that performs well for under $1,000, don't miss this Amazon deal.

Acer makes some of our favorite budget gaming models, so we expect this model to be sufficient for those looking for the basics that can conveniently move on the go whenever the need arises.

This laptop has a 15.6-inch FHD IPS display with a fast 165Hz refresh rate and a 16:9 aspect ratio. It also has an Intel Core i5-13420H processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 graphics, 8GB of RAM and 512GB of solid-state storage. While these aren't the most powerful specs on the market, they're pretty solid for the cost of this computer. 

There's also a full range of ports, including HDMI 2.1, a USB-C Thunderbolt 4 port and more, along with Wi-Fi 6 compatibility. You can also fine-tune your setup through the NitroSense utility app to adjust your fan speeds and more.

Why this deal matters

If you're looking to grab a budget gaming laptop, Acer is a solid brand. And right now, you can save an extra $100 on this Nitro model, bringing it to an all-time low. As this is a limited-time deal, it may be the right time to snag one if it's in your budget and you were already planning on buying a gaming laptop.
