Want a Cyber Monday gaming laptop? Gaming, productivity, editing, ray tracing. You've come to the right place: the Alienware m15 R3 from Dell is just the thing to make all of this possible, with an RTX 2070 graphics card, 32GB of memory, and an 8-core CPU, all for $650 off the list price. If you like what you see, you'll love what you get.

The Alienware m15 R3, which is $1,599.99 in the Dell store, has a full-size RTX 2070 with 8GB of memory, which is not the shiny new RTX 30 series cards we keep banging on about, but these mobile versions have yet to be announced. For now, the RTX 2070 remains one of the absolute best mobile GPUs money can buy.

The RTX 2070 is paired with a 15.6" 1080p screen, which would be fine except for the high resolution of 300Hz.

To make good use of this, you need a decent CPU. One that can not only keep up with the GPU at high frame rates, but also provide enough power for productivity and content creation tasks. That's where the 8-core Core i7 10875H comes in (and 32GB of DDR4 memory). [The Core i7 10875H boost clock is 5.1 GHz, which is very fast for a processor today, whether mobile or desktop. To ensure efficient and cool operation, Dell offers HyperEfficient Voltage Regulation and Cryo-Tech Cooling technology. Our previous experience with this cooling solution (inside a large m17 laptop) found it to run a bit hot, but it seems to get every drop of performance out of the silicon.

It also runs in a relatively small space. Unlike some of the behemoths, the Alienware m15 R3 is housed in Alienware's relatively new and very sleek chassis.

This laptop is only available in "Lunar Light," which is basically a pretty light gray. If this color is not to your liking, you can add the dBrand Cyberpunk 2077 skin for an additional $59.99.
