CES: BEST NEW GAMERS

● Acer Nitro 5

The 2021 Nitro 5 comes in 15in and 17in variants, and you can pay as little as $750 for the base model or treble that if you spec it up to a Ryzen 5000 series CPU and Nvidia RTX 3080 graphics. from $750 / acer.com

● Asus ROG Flow X13

A Stuff CES Most Wanted pick, this sleek 13-incher looks more business than Battlefield, but it’s definitely here for a good time. We’re especially keen on the optional EGPU add-on. from $3000 / asus.com

● Lenovo Legion 7

Lo! Lenovo’s latest lovely Legion laptop also sports a Ryzen 5000 and up to an RTX 3080 GPU… but we’re more interested in its 16in 1440p display, which has a tall-ish 16:10 aspect ratio. from $1670 / lenovo.com
