More than a decade ago, gaming laptops were significantly different from what we call a gaming laptop today. The major changes occurred in the size of the laptops and the components within one such machine. Also, companies had to reduce the prices of their products primarily because of the big competition. Simply, in the past few years, a lot of progress has been made, so today we have machines that we can easily afford, and they will provide you with good gaming experience.
Today, we decided to introduce the top 7 gaming laptops that you can get for about $1,000 and which will allow you to enjoy the latest video games in 1080p resolution.
