3. HP Omen

First things first: the HP Omen looks phenomenal. Angles, lights—it has a unique style to it. It does have outdated graphics to go with its eye-catching exterior. But, as a mid-range option, this gaming laptop is enough to provide a casual gamer his/her work and play requirements. Legit gamers will also love this, but maybe not so much just for unbeatably cool looks.

The Asus ROG G751JY is a tank. It’s big, heavy, and packs one hell of a punch. It has the best components jammed in a premium design. Strangely enough, its huge bulk has makes very little noise. A gamer should consider this one if its cons do not make it a dealbreaker.

5. Origin EON15-X

Definitely one of the best in the world right now. The Origin EON15-X has great value considering its hardware can beat some other even more expensive laptops. It has a relatively small 15.6 monitor, but with that power behind it, it’s a clear win for many gamers.
