Why Buy:
- 144Hz refresh rate
- NVDIA RTX 3050 Ti

It’s amazing what a budget gaming laptop can get you these days. It opens up a whole world of modern gaming options, even at a relatively low price. This ASUS TUF is a great example. It has mid-range parts at a budget price, but it will be able to handle any game you through at it (provided you’re willing to scale the graphics back a little bit). For guts this machine has an Intel i5 processor and an NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti. That will be able to handle any modern game at relatively good graphics, but you won’t be ray tracing or gaming in 4K. That’s alright though, since the screen itself can only display 1080p resolution. It does have an impressive 144p refresh rate, so motion will feel smooth and fluid.
