RTX 5080 gaming laptop deals haven’t been looking too healthy as of late. The high-end rigs have taken the year’s component shortages hard, with MSRPs scaling up the price ladder and the regular sale prices we’d grown accustomed to disappearing from the shelves. HP seems to have a surplus of older HP Omen Max<\/a> machines in its warehouse this week, though.<\/p>\n The RTX 5080 configuration of the best gaming laptop<\/a> I’ve tested has taken a tumble all the way down to $2,299.99 (was $3,799.99)<\/strong><\/a> in a sale that makes me feel a year younger already. There was a time when these machines settled at between $2,000 and $2,500 when discounts were applied (depending on whether you opted for an OLED or IPS display), but prices have been stuck closer to $3,000 for a few months now.<\/p>\n
