This RTX 3050-equipped MSI gaming laptop is ridiculously cheap right now

Are you in the market for a budget gaming laptop? Well, today is a great day to get one. Right now, Microsoft via eBay is selling the 15.6-inch MSI Katana GF66 for $628. That’s $472 off of the MSRP.

This laptop is packing an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050, which should reliably deliver 1080p gaming performance. You can expect to hit 60 frames-per-second on resource intensive games at high or medium settings. As for the CPU, it’s the Intel “Tiger Lake” Core i5-11400H, which has six cores, twelve threads, and a boost to 4.5GHz. For RA, you get 8GB and onboard storage is 512GB. The operating system is Windows 10 Home, but it’s likely Windows 11 ready.

We’re not sure how long it’ll last at this price, but if you’re on the lookout for a solid budget gaming rig, then this laptop is well worth considering.
