Deal | Gateway Creator 15.6 with Ryzen 5 4600H and GeForce GTX 1650 graphics is as fast as the Dell XPS 15, costs almost half the price at $600 USD

Coinciding with the Gateway 14 deal yesterday is the larger and faster Gateway Creator 15.6. As its name suggests, the Gateway Creator targets video editors or gamers on tight budgets with its faster hardware.

Users are getting a fairly powerful laptop for the $600 USD sale price. Most notably, the configuration comes with a Ryzen 5 4600H CPU to be as fast or even faster than more expensive laptops running on the Core i7-10750H or Core i7-10875H. The 1080p 120 Hz display and GeForce GTX 1650 graphics will also allow for smooth browsing and 1080p gaming at lower settings.

The main disadvantage to the deal is the low 8 GB of system RAM. Fortunately, there is a free SODIMM slot for expansion which is highly recommended for heavy multi-taskers. Users also shouldn't expect very accurate colors meaning more serious graphics editors might want to look elsewhere.
