Alienware's m15 R5 is one of the best gaming laptops money can buy. The laptop in this deal packs a 15.6-inch (1920 x 1080) 165Hz display with a 3ms response time. Powering the machine is a 3.2-GHz AMD Ryzen R7 5800H 8-core CPU coupled with 16GB of RAM,  Rounding out its specs sheet is Nvidia's GeForce RTX 3060 GPU with 6GB of graphics memory and a 256GB SSD.

Although we didn't test this R5 model, in our Alienware m15 R4 review, we were floored by its awesome performance and graphics. We gave it an overall rating of 4 out of 5 stars and our Editor's Choice award stamp of approval. 

We expect the laptop in this deal to be on par with its predecessor performance-wise. Aesthetically, the m15 R5 sports Alienware's new Legend industrial design with thin display bezels. With a weight of 5.3 pounds and measuring 14 x 10.7 x 0.8 -inches, it's on par with the m15 R4 (5.3 pounds, 14.2 x 10.9 x 0.7~0.8 inches).

Alienware laptop deals are only as good as stock permits, so we recommend you act fast.
