Acer's RTX 5070-powered Nitro V16 gaming laptop price cut to $1249.99 — you have 24 hours to make the most of this Best Buy limited-time deal

If you've been looking at buying parts for a new PC build, or even a shiny new prebuilt PC, the market has been looking quite grim for a little while now, thanks to the AI crunch pushing up all the prices for normal consumers and enthusiasts. One area that has remained relatively stable, though, depending on your RAM and SSD selection, is laptops. Many manufacturers have managed to absorb some of the memory price hikes and not pass those on to customers. How long this will hold for is anyone's guess, but it's not going to be forever. In a limited-time sale at Best Buy, you can pick up a well-priced RTX 5070 gaming laptop. The Acer Nitro V 16-inch gaming laptop is just $1,249.99, shaving $50 off the $1,299.99 list price. This deal expires tomorrow, so check out the deal and see if it is of interest, but be wary of the cut-off.
