When shopping for a new gaming laptop, I always recommend waiting for a big sale. This allows you to cram more performance hardware inside without overspending, making your frames faster and your wallet heavier.

Black Friday deals are in full swing this week, and I've spotted a huge discount on MSI's 16-inch Vector gaming laptop with a Ryzen 9 CPU and RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU.

Full access to NVIDIA's DLSS 4 tools — including Multi Frame Generation — comes standard.

More power for less money — every PC gamer's dream come true

When buying a new gaming laptop, you always want to carefully balance the price-to-performance ratio. Spend too little, and you might end up with a laptop that can't meet the demands of your favorite games. Spend too much, and you might end up with an overkill system and an empty wallet.

This 16-inch MSI Vector A16 is perhaps the perfect PC for an upper mid-range experience. PC gaming veterans will find that the NVIDIA GPU, AMD CPU, and QHD display with 240Hz refresh rate can easily keep up with modern games, and newcomers to the PC gaming scene can get a lot more performance right from the start.

With this deal, you can essentially get an RTX 5070 Ti laptop for the same price that you'd normally spend on a system with an RTX 5060. It's hard to beat that.

Because there's one of NVIDIA's latest RTX 5000 Blackwell GPUs inside, the laptop grants full access to DLSS 4 upscaling techniques, including Multi Frame Generation. If you want to see frame rates double, triple, or quadruple with a click of a button, this is the way to go.

The 16-inch form factor's larger cooling system helps prevent any thermal throttling, and it remains far more portable than an 18-inch laptop. There's also plenty of space for ports, including dual USB4, dual USB-A 3.2 (Gen 2), an SD card reader, 2.5Gb Ethernet, and HDMI 2.1.

Black Friday is generally the last big hurrah of deals before the holidays, and this $700 discount was too good not to mention. I'm not exactly sure how long it will last, but I do know that Walmart has both Amazon ($1,419.99) and Best Buy ($1,499.99) beat by a significant margin.
