Huge one-day-only discount on Acer Predator gaming laptops at Amazon. Get this 15-inch Acer Predator Triton 500 Thin for $2,000. This Predator was only this price for one day last month. It's one of the best gaming laptops that performs without feeling like you're dragging a concrete slab in your backpack (one of our personal favorites with ray tracing).

This model of the Acer Predator Triton 500 features an Intel i7-8750H CPU, 16GB RAM, 512 SSD, and a Geforce RTX 2080 with Max-Q graphics card. This premium thin gaming laptop won't give you exactly the same performance as a desktop with the RTX 2080, but you'll be happy with the performance of a gaming laptop that weighs just 5 pounds. You'll be able to play most games comfortably at high 1080p settings with fairly solid frame rates. It also has ample USB ports in case you want to try VR.

The Predator features a bright 144Hz 1080p IPS G-Sync display with a 3ms response time. Personally, for $2,000, I would have liked at least a 1TB SSD, as a 512GB SSD fills up quickly; the PredatorSense software could be a bit easier to overclock and control fan speeds.
