Image: AcerAcer’s Nitro V is one of the most popular gaming laptops around because it’s a great deal — so much so that it’s consistently the best seller in its category on Amazon.
But right now, you can get one of these bad boys for an even better price of just $606.39 after discounts on eBay. Snatch it quick if you’re in the market because this deal is going to go fast.
Two things to know before you check out: first, this is a refurbished laptop. But it isn’t your usual roll-of-the-dice-when-buying-refurbished piece of hardware! This one is sold directly by Acer (via the company’s official eBay account) and it comes with a two-year Allstate warranty included in the price. That’s about as good as it gets for a refurb deal.
Second, you’ll need to apply a coupon code (as spotted by users on SlickDeals) to get the full discount off its $757.99 list price. Apply the FALL20OFF promo code (that’s a zero in 20, followed by a capital O in OFF) when you check out to get an extra discount, bringing the price down to $606.39 with free shipping. Sweet.
With an Intel Core i7-12650H processor, an Nvidia RTX 4050 graphics card, and 16GB of RAM, this laptop should be able to deliver medium settings for 3D games at the 15-inch screen’s 1080p resolution and maximum 144Hz refresh rate. Storage is a little pokey at 512GB, but since the Nitro V is big and roomy, you can upgrade both the storage and the RAM with cheap off-the-shelf components and a screwdriver.
It’s a great machine for college students and gamers on a budget, so long as you don’t mind hauling it around with a power cord for when the battery runs out. Again, this deal is unlikely to last too long since eBay listings are stock-limited, so grab one while you can.
