5 Best Gaming Laptops With RGB

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: Intel Core i7-12800HX
• GPU / Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti
• RAM / Memory: 16GB DDR5
• Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD
• Display: 15.6″ OLED QHD 240Hz

It might not have the best GPU or the biggest screen, but the MSI Raider GE67Hx matches its RGB splendor with a beautiful OLED display. That’s its main advantage against other gaming laptops with RGB.

And take note, this OLED display is also in QHD or 1440p with a 240Hz refresh rate, meaning it can also count as a competitive eSports machine. With an RTX 3070 Ti and a 12th Gen i7 processor, it’s well-equipped for that kind of challenge.

Moreover, the price is now reasonable despite the OLED display since it’s technically an outgoing generation (though it’s still a superb option).

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: Intel Core i9-13900HX (13th Gen)
• GPU / Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080
• RAM / Memory: 32 GB DDR5
• Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD
• Display: 16″ 2560 x 1600 240 Hz IPS

When it comes to lighting up the room, the Lenovo Legion Pro 7 and its other brothers in the “Legion 7” lineup are undisputed champions. There’s no shortage of lighting here, the whole base comes with RGB LEDs, giving the laptop an ethereal look especially if placed on top of a reflective black surface.

And to make itself worthy of all that blindingly beautiful RGB, it comes equipped with the latest and the greatest when it comes to laptop gaming hardware. The 13th Gen Intel CPU and the RTX 4080 along with the 32GB of DDR5 RAM ought to make jaws drop; all that’s left is for the RGB lighting to make eyes pop. Figuratively speaking, of course.

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX
• GPU / Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080
• RAM / Memory: 16 GB DDR4
• Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD
• Display: 15.6″ 1920×1080 300Hz IPS Display

Sure enough, Asus isn’t backing down from the RGBattle. Its ROG lineup is well-known for its copious amounts of RGB lighting and enthusiast gamer stuff. So the ROG Strix Scar rightfully comes equipped with lighting that can rival that of the Lenovo Legion 7.

Granted, the intensity of the RGB lighting is more muted here and not as radiant as the ones from Lenovo. But it’s easy enough to appreciate. The specs are also decent with the RTX 3080 leading in the forefront and despite being just 1080p, the refresh rate is worthy of eSports contenders.

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: AMD Ryzen R9 5900HX
• GPU / Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070
• RAM / Memory: 32 GB DDR4
• Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD
• Display: 15.6″ 1920×1080 360Hz IPS Display

Alienware and its M15 lineup took a different approach to RGB lighting. It’s all business at the front and party in the back with the glowing Alienware logo and the oblong RGB strip situated at the rear of the laptop.

You might be thinking this is not ideal since you won’t see the RGB while using the laptop but lighting positions like these have their uses. For one, they provide a bit of bias lighting to the adjacent wall or background so that your eyes don’t become to strained under dim light.

And besides, it’s great for showing off to the people in front of you. Specs-wise, it’s good enough and the price is well-justified with an RTX 3070 and an eSports display.

Specs:

• CPU / Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 5980HX
• GPU / Graphics Card: AMD Radeon RX 6800M
• RAM / Memory: 16 GB DDR4
• Storage: 512GB NVMe SSD
• Display: 15.6″ 165Hz QHD (2560 x 1440)

For those of you who only have a mid-range budget but still want your best shot at RGB lighting, then look no further than this model of the Asus ROG Strix G15. Thanks to the AMD bundle, it’s more affordable compared to its Intel and Nvidia counterparts.

This particular Strix has about the same lighting and RGB capabilities as its more elegant Strix Scar 15 cousin. The screen is even better since its display is QHD, giving the Radeon RX 6800M plenty to work with at the most reasonable price point.
