The school year may have just barely ended for most, but retailers are moving fast to kick off back-to-school sales early. That includes Best Buy, which has just launched a huge sale on laptops, featuring price cuts of up to $500 on dozens of devices – from cheap Chromebooks to powerful Copilot Plus AI machines.

But one way you can lighten the load is to just start with a gaming laptop, which packs in everything you need to get started in PC gaming without all the extra pieces. Of course, gaming laptops can be expensive, too, but plenty of budget options also exist.

This 13.8-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop packs a Snapdragon X Plus CPU, which is ideal for school, work and everything in between. Along with its drastic performance boost and longer battery life thanks to the chip, it comes with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD — all to power its Copilot+ features. The $120 discount makes it all the sweeter.

Finally, we’ve got some monitor deals. There’s a saving of just $30 on the 34-inch AW3425DW monitor, which is a QLED panel, but it’s not much of a deal, we admit. On the other hand, you can save $300 on the 27-inch AW2725DF which has an OLED panel and a refresh rate of 360Hz. That brings it down to $599.99.
