Best Buy just launched an awesome early Black Friday Doorbuster deal that drops HP’s 15.6-inch Victus gaming laptop down to just $430, a massive price cut compared to its usual $800 list price. You need to be a My Best Buy Plus/Total member to snag this deal right now, but it will be available to all shoppers tonight at 10 PM PT / 1 AM ET–as long as it doesn’t sell out before then. This HP Victus laptop is one of four early Black Friday Doorbusters up for grabs at Best Buy through November 10.
This specific model runs on an AMD Ryzen 5-7535HS processor, AMD Radeon RX 6550M graphics card, and 8GB of DDR5 memory, plus a 512GB SSD for installing games and storing your files.
This HP Victus is a solid budget choice for casual gaming or as a gift for younger PC gamers who are getting started with the hobby, especially while it’s only $430. The Ryzen 5 CPU is a mid-range processor, whereas the GPU and RAM are entry-level components best suited for less graphically intensive games. Many indie games and older AAA titles should work just fine, but don’t expect great performance with newer AAA hits like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. We mention Black Ops specifically, because it’s featured in the product images for this laptop.
We’ve seen similar HP Victus gaming laptops go on sale for around $500-$550 during big sales events like Prime Day, but it’s very rare to see an entry-level gaming laptop for this low of a price.
This HP Victus gaming laptop discount is not the only early Black Friday Door Buster deal. You can also pick up Samsung’s giant 75-inch Crystal UHD 4K smart TV for $550 (down from $750), and LG’s 45-inch curved OLED UltraGear gaming monitor, which offers a 1440p resolution and 240Hz refresh rate with support for FreeSync, Nvidia G-Sync, and HDR400, for just $1,100 (normally $1,700). Like the HP Victus deal, these discounts are available through November 10, or until they sell out.
Best Buy Early Black Friday Door Buster Deals (November 8 – 10)
While Best Buy’s Doorbuster deals are worth checking out, they’re not the only early discounts to expect. Target’s Early Black Friday three-day sale runs through November 9, and Walmart’s first round of deals go live on November 11–and Walmart+ members can access those offers up to five hours early. Even more Black Friday deals will go live throughout the month, so be sure to keep an eye on GameSpot’s deals coverage for all the latest discounts.
