A few years ago, it cost you at least several thousand nairas to buy a gaming laptop that was strong enough for a 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second. Fortunately, nowadays you no longer have to spend a fortune on a gaming laptop, this is partly because the necessary processors and GPUs are now also used in smartphones. Nowadays, it is no longer difficult to buy a reasonable gaming laptop under ₦500,000 naira and in this post, you’d find a Naijaknowhow’s compilation of the best budget gaming laptops in Nigeria.

Still, this laptop packs quite a punch with a GTX 1650 graphics card with 4GB video memory, 16GB RAM, an AMD Ryzen 5 processor and 512GB SSD storage. The laptop has a fairly standard design for a gaming laptop and has fairly large bezels around the screen. A big advantage of this laptop is that you can decide the power of the ventilation yourself, and the battery also lasts a long time for a gaming laptop. It won’t win any beauty prize, but you will be able to play just about any game on this laptop, just not on the highest settings. Play games at high FPS thanks to the screen with a refresh rate of 144hz.
