Happy Friday all. Deals made this week run the gamut from laptops and graphics cards to soundbars. For starters, we have a standout sale on the HP Envy x360 13-inch convertible laptop with a gorgeous OLED display. Normally, this configuration costs $1,049.99, but it’s been discounted to $699.99 at Best Buy. This is the lowest price we have ever seen for this model, which is definitely worth your attention.
This flexible 2-in-1 laptop features an 11th Gen Intel Core i7 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 512GB of onboard storage. It’s not the most powerful laptop around, but it’s more than enough for most applications. Plus, if you need a versatile, mobile machine that’s especially great for watching movies and TV shows, its 1080p OLED display is hard to beat. The Envy x360 has a pair of USB-A ports and a single Thunderbolt 4 port for connecting the laptop to an external monitor or fast SSD. It also has a microSD card slot which provides an additional possibility for data transfer, but it can also provide the laptop with additional storage if you need extra space.
It’s not something we typically feature on Verge Deals due to their quick entry and sellout, but we thought this deal on the Gigabyte Radeon RX6600 GPU was worth highlighting. Not only is this card readily available, but you can currently purchase it for less than its original price of $399.99. Amazon has this graphics card available for a modest discount of $369.99.
The Gigabyte model of the RX 6600 offers 8 GB of VRAM and a base clock speed of 2,044 MHz. While specs like these aren’t able to handle 4K rendering, they’re perfectly suited for playing games at 1440p with trade-offs or playing titles at 1080p with faster frame rates. This model of the RX 6600 also adopts a triple-fan design which, provided you have room in your case, can provide a bit more headroom for overclocking.
If you’re looking to complete your collection and don’t mind physical games, GameStop is currently offering a buy two, get one free sale on all used games. This promotion is exactly what it says on the box: get one free game with the purchase of two other games of equal or greater value. Events like these are always a great opportunity to grab games you might have slept a little on, but you can even pick up recently released titles here. Some of the highlights available here include Ring of Elden, Infinite Haloand Forza Horizon 5. What’s even better is that most of these titles are available well below their original price.
Woot has discounted the JBL Bar 5.1 soundbar to its lowest price yet. Normally, this 40-inch soundbar costs $599.99, but it’s currently on sale for just $369.99 at Woot. In addition to Dolby Pro Logic 2 surround sound, this soundbar also comes with a wireless subwoofer. In terms of connectivity, the soundbar has a single HDMI input and output port, as well as an optical and USB hookup. It also supports Bluetooth connectivity, but Apple users should note that it only supports native AirPlay, not AirPlay 2.
Matching its lowest price ever, you can also find the LG SNC75 soundbar on Woot for $449.99, half its original price of $899.99. This 41-inch soundbar has three front-facing speakers and a pair that fire upwards, plus a wireless subwoofer. The SNC75 has connections for HDMI, optical audio and USB inputs and supports 4K passthrough with Dolby Vision and HDR10 support. The soundbar can also connect to a variety of devices via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
