Best Buy's most recent sale has netted some great deals on gaming laptops; So many in fact, that I'm having trouble deciding which one is best right now.
There are two deals in particular that have caught my eye: this MSI Stealth 14 for $999 (was $1,499) and this Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 for $1,049 (was $1,599).
Both gaming laptops are at least $500 off right now, feature speedy RTX 4060 graphics cards, and come in bag-friendly 14-inch forms. Simply put, both are fantastic options if you're looking for a stylish machine that won't weigh you down too much.
Which is the best? Well, it's close. First, let's take a look at each model in its entirety, including the components each features:

What is the best buy right now?
So, we've got two gaming laptop deals here at record-breaking Black Friday-level prices. Of the two, I'd say Asus has the more comprehensive range of specs with its Ryzen 9 chipset and 1440p display, but the MSI has the advantage of a 1TB SSD out of the box. The Asus' 512GB SSD may be enough, but you'll probably want to upgrade at some point if you plan to have a large library of games installed at once. If you're happy with upgrading the SSD (a very easy install), then Asus could be a great all-in-one option for you.
That said, both laptops will perform similarly in most games thanks to the RTX 4060 graphics card, which is a respectable GPU for 1080p gaming; Depending on the game, you can also get decent performance at 1440p, although only the Asus display supports this higher resolution.
