When it comes to measuring the value for money of a gaming laptop, the key metric is how much power-per-pound a manufacturer stuffs into a sleek chassis. For this Gigabyte G5, the answer is “a lot.”

Up top, you have a spacious trackpad and keyboard for gameplay, alongside a gorgeous 1080p display with a 144Hz refresh rate and powerful Nahimic 3 virtual 7.1 surround sound tech.

But what about under the hood? There’s an Intel Core i5-10500H processor with a speed up to 4.5GHz, alongside a beefy GeForce RTX 3060 GPU with 6GB GDDR6. Multitasking is handled with 16GB DDR4 and the 512GB NVMe SSD is both spacious and allows for super-fast load times.

With a £100 price cut, that makes for some serious value. So, whether you’re an enthusiast looking for a portable upgrade or a first-timer with some savings built up, this is a great option.
