Deal: The MSI GP66 Leopard RTX 3080 gaming laptop is now on sale for a limited time

Since desktop components like GPUs are still incredibly hard to find at a reasonable price these days, many gamers may choose to buy a powerful gaming laptop instead. Prospective gaming notebook buyers who are still on the lookout for a deal on a very capable RTX 3080 machine should therefore check out the latest sale on a high-end MSI GP66 Leopard configuration, which is apparently only valid today.

This 15-inch gaming laptop with an Intel Core i7-11800H, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 with 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM and 16GB of DDR4 memory is currently sold on Newegg for US$1,899. An additional US$100 mail-in rebate brings that price down even further to a very intriguing US$1,799. This deal, which also includes a free copy of Dying Light 2, appears to match the lowest price yet on this top-end configuration of the MSI GP66 Leopard gaming laptop 11UH-032.

We put a slightly different configuration of this gaming notebook through its paces in our comprehensive review and were particularly impressed by its great adaptive cooling system, the fast 1TB NVMe SSD and good CPU and GPU performance, which turned out to be extremely competitive in this price category. We also tested the fast 240 Hz IPS display of the MSI GP66 Leopard in a separate review and found that it delivered quick response times despite lacking a bit of brightness. Overall, this deal on an RTX 3080 gaming notebook is absolutely worth a look, especially at its discounted sales price of well under US$2,000.
