Gaming laptop with RTX 3050Ti, 17.3" FHD IPS 120Hz, i7-11800H, 16GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, Gateway $499. (Microcenter In-Store)

+10 Deal Score
12,713 Views
(Microcenter In-Store Only) Lowest price by far for a new laptop with RTX 3050Ti, 17" IPS display, 16 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD.

The Gateway brand concerns me, so I would only buy this with an extended warranty.

Gateway is Back!
I used to have a gateway fx laptop back then by the original company, to see it is back is outstanding! I purchased this laptop some time ago and it preforms like a pro! I highly recommend purchasing this brand again to anyone who is looking.

Has Many Needed Ports but lacks in a manual!
I just recently purchased this, so it's way to soon for a complete review. I like the fact that it has plenty of memory and storage & PORTS unlike so many others.
I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT IT DIDN'T COME WITH A COMPLETE USER'S MANUAL AND I DIDN'T FIND IT UNDER SUPPORT. THE QUICK GUIDE IS NOT ENOUGH OF A GUIDE. I CAN NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE AT THIS TIME.

This Laptop is exactly what I was looking for
I love the bigger size of this unit. I had struggled to find a modern i7 with 16gb RAM and 1TB SSD with a Geforce RTX. This was a great value, and the graphics are beautiful so far. I cannot wait to see Diablo IV on it!

For an additional $75 savings, my local Microcenter has this item open box for $424.96. Does not contain original box, but has full manufacturer remaining warranty.

For a 17.3" laptop with dGPU, 1TB SSD, and 16GB RAM, I think $499 is a very good price. It won't play Cities Skylines 2 or Alan Wake 2, but nothing will... 😂

Yes, very good. It's smart to get an extended warranty imo.

That's what I will be doing. nod

The 4GB of VRAM is the deal killer... But the price is spicy... tempting... Err!

I've got a very similar specced laptop with a 3050ti and 32gb RAM. I've been pleasantly surprised with what I can run and how well I can run it. Definitely won't run either Alan Wake 2 or Cities Skyline 2 but I've found that it will run most everything I've thrown at it from the past generation well at 1080. Definitely no 1440p or new graphic intensive games but prior gen games seem to do well such as RDR2.

1) it's a gateway
2) it might be hard to find a store that has it in stock. my local microcenter doesn't have any
