Gaming laptops are a great way to play PC games without being tied down to a dedicated gaming desktop However, they are expensive, so deals on gaming notebooks should not be overlooked

For example, you can get the Lenovo Legion Y540 gaming laptop for $899 at Walmart That's $400 off the regular price of $1,299

The Lenovo Legion Y540 may now have a one-generation processor and graphics card, but the specs offered (9th generation Intel Core i7-9750H processor, 16GB RAM, 512G SSD storage, Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 GPU) are more than enough to run the latest games at high 1080p settings on a 156-inch display

The thin bezel makes the display nearly indestructible, and whether you're playing a timeless indie classic or an overwhelming blockbuster, you're sure to stand out from the crowd when playing games on this machine

For laptop gamers, cooling a gaming machine is always a concern However, the included Legion Coldfront technology utilizes four heat-dissipating holes for improved airflow, so the Y540 actually won't get too hot when used on the lap

These make it possible to get many gaming laptops for under $1,000
