If you need a lightweight laptop with some gaming chops, last year’s model of the Asus TUF Gaming A14 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is currently marked down to just $900 at Walmart.
This budget-friendly laptop was already a good choice at its original price, and is even more appealing when it's discounted to under $1,000.
This gaming laptop is a particularly good choice if you're concerned about size and weight.
Our reviewer found it was able to manage almost 10 hours of battery life just doing normal work, but only a couple hours when gaming, which is to be expected for a slim gaming laptop.
You get a great screen, solid GPU, and a slim, lightweight chassis, and make only a few compromises to get under $1,000.
