I saw newer gaming laptops with Nvidia RTX 50 series GPUs get quite cheap during last week’s October Prime Day sales (think $899.99 to $1,049.99 for RTX 5060 models). But as of mid-October, Walmart’s managed to scrounge up an even cheaper option.

The Acer Nitro V 16 AI with a GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card, 16GB of memory, and 512GB of storage is now on sale for just $699, or $200 off its usual sticker price — a 22% savings. I’ve never seen an RTX 50 series gaming laptop dip so low before; this pushes it into Chromebook price territory.

We tested a $999 Nitro V 15 gaming laptop with RTX 4050 graphics back in 2023 and thought it offered great performance for the price. This updated 16-inch model has a newer AMD Ryzen 5 240 processor, a better 1080p webcam, a higher-res 1920 x 1200 display with a 180Hz refresh rate, and a cleaner, more subdued look.

The Nitro V 16 AI also comes with an MUX Switch that shuts off its dedicated GPU and enables its integrated graphics, which is really nice to have if you want to use it like a normal Windows laptop for non-gaming tasks. I don’t expect it to be a battery life champ, but you should get a little more juice out of it this way.

The Nitro V 16 doesn’t sport any RGB lighting — just amber backlighting under its keyboard — but that’s hardly surprising at this price point.
