Up to $500 off RTX 50-series OLED gaming laptops is the best deal I've seen yet, but you'll want to act fast to save
The summer solstice is right around the corner, and with temperatures rising I'm seeing prices fall on gaming laptops at retailers around the world.
I keep an eye on that kind of stuff because I write about laptops for a living here at Tom's Guide, which is how I just discovered that the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i with RTX 5090 is $3,599 at B&H. That's a great deal on this OLED-equipped gaming laptop, and one of the best discounts I've seen yet on a gaming laptop with a top-of-the-line Nvidia Geforce RTX 5090 laptop graphics card.
This Lenovo Legion Pro 7i is a top-of-the-line gaming laptop thanks to its high-end Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, an Intel Core i9-275HX CPU, 32GB of RAM and 2TB of storage. That's more than enough power to make all your favorite games run beautifully on the eye-catching 16-inch 1600p 240Hz OLED display.
I've seen this laptop on sale at B&H before, but I've never seen the best-in-class RTX 5090 model priced so low.
But let's be real—even with $500 off, this laptop costs a pretty penny. Luckily, B&H is also running significant discounts on the same laptop with slightly less powerful Nvidia GPUs onboard. So if you don't have ~$3.5k to drop on a top-of-the-line gaming laptop , you can get the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i w/ RTX 5080 for $2,999 at B&H, which is $500 off.
This is effectively the same laptop with a slightly weaker GeForce RTX 5080 GPU that makes it $500 cheaper before you add in the $500 discount). Other than the GPU change it's effectively ientical to the other models on sale, packing an Intel Core i9-275HX CPU, 32GB of RAM and 2TB of storage driving the same 16-inch 1600p 240Hz OLED display.
Last but certainly not least, you can get a weaker model of the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i for $2,399 at B&H with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti onboard
This is the cheapest model of this laptop you can get, but it's no slouch thanks to its Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU complementing the usual Intel Core i9-275HX CPU, 32GB of RAM and 2TB of storage.
I've never seen such a wide selection of good discounts on a great gaming laptop, so now feels like a good time to pull the trigger if you've been shopping for one of the best gaming laptops around.
As you can read in our Lenovo Legion Pro 7i review, this eye-catching 16-inch gaming laptop is a sleek, powerful machine that feels premium. And while the high-end RTX 5090 model still costs a pretty penny even after the savings, you can be confident it will run even the best PC games beautifully on the vibrant 240Hz OLED display.
But don't feel pressured to spend $3k or more on one of these beasts just because they're on deep discount. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti just launched a few months ago, and frankly it's more than capable of running almost any game you like at good to great framerates—you just might need to play with the graphics settings and fine-tune Nvidia's DLSS upscaling tech to get the ideal gaming experience.
And when you're done gaming, the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i remains a capable, mutli-purpose Windows 11 laptop that's also useful for audio/video editing and other demanding tasks. And of course, images and video look lovely on the 16-inch (2560 x 1600) 240Hz OLED HDR-capable display with Dolby Vision support.
Plus, the plentitude of ports, Wi-Fi 7 support and comfy keyboard make this a great laptop for getting work done. Just be careful if you lug it to the coffee shop—like most gaming laptops, you can expect battery life to be a handful of hours when writing and maybe an hour or two when gaming.
But that's par for the course when buying gaming laptops, and since this Lenovo 16-incher weighs over six pounds you probably won't feel like carrying it around much anyway. This thing is built to live on a desk or coffee table most of the time, and for my money it's one of the best gaming laptop deals I've seen so far this year.

Quantum computing stock price slips after 3rd double-digit pop in June
Quantum computing stock price slips after 3rd double-digit pop in June originally appeared on TheStreet. Updated 3:01 pm EST to reflect stock price on June 17. Thought crypto was wild? Quantum computing stocks keep turning heads with surging gains. It's been a crazy few months for the quantum computing space, to say the least. Earlier this year, skeptics, including Mad Money's Jim Cramer, called out the 'gamification' of quantum stocks, brushing off the rallies as short-lived hype. 💵💰Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter💰💵 Subsequently, we saw many pure-play names that 10x'd in late 2024 and early 2025, cooling off sharply. Still, the bullishness around the industry held up well. In recent weeks, though, the sentiment has shifted sharply, with fresh interest from lawmakers and tech leaders. Between Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang changing his tune on quantum and a flurry of legislative moves in Washington, the signs suggest that it's not just theory anymore. Hence, the vibe's now mostly bullish, and the business specifics are starting to matter a lot more. Case in point? One eponymous quantum player quietly crushing it, without obsessing over qubits or cryogenics. Quantum computing has been one of the hottest investing trends over the past year—and for good late 2019, Google's Sycamore processors stunned us all by achieving 'quantum supremacy,' solving a task in minutes that would have taken classical supercomputers millennia. Then, it took things up a notch or two again late last year, showing its Willow chip with 105 qubits and below-threshold error correction. That chip nailed a Random Circuit Sampling task in under five minutes, a feat today's fastest supercomputers wouldn't crack in 10²⁵ years. Since then, multiple pure-play businesses in the niche have sprung up, vying for a lucrative bellwether position. Companies like Rigetti have taken qubit counts (a core building block of quantum tech) into the hundreds. Similarly, firms like D-Wave have commercialized quantum annealing systems for optimization tasks, with their share prices going parabolic. A big part of the sentiment shift is the much-hyped quantum-AI marriage. Earlier this month, we saw Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang hailing quantum computing as the next 'inflection point'. Also, he talked up the potential of quantum processors in AI workflows to speed up machine-learning training and complex simulations. Unsurprisingly, the sector's expected to rake in serious moolah. More On Quantum Computing: Nvidia CEO sends blunt 7-word message on quantum computing Surprising tech giant aims to lead quantum computing revolution Veteran analyst who predicted quantum computing stocks rally unveils IonQ stock price target According to Grand View Research, the global quantum computing space is set to grow from $1.42 billion in 2024 to $4.24 billion by 2030 (a 21.2% CAGR). Meanwhile, GlobeNewswire projects a steeper 31.6% CAGR, pushing the market from $1.79 billion in 2025 to over $7 billion by 2030. Quantum Computing () stock price fell 7% on June 17 after notching a 27% gain on June 16, closing at $21.22. The gain marked the stock's third double-digit jump and second 25%-plus surge since the start of the company announced the shipment of its first commercial entangled-photon module to a leading Korean research institute. Unlike most of its peers, which are still pre-revenue, the announcement of its first order could be a sign of things to come. To put things in perspective, Quantum Computing stock has been a big outperformer, clocking an eye-watering 3,152% gain last year, comfortably ahead of its peers. In the past month alone, Quantum Computing stock surged 77%, once again outperforming the competition. Rigetti, D-Wave, and IonQ stocks were up 3.2%, 25%, and 12%, respectively, over the same period. What gives Quantum Computing stock the edge? For starters, its shipment to a Korean research institute shows that it's already building the backbone for quantum communication. Unlike its peers, which continue tinkering with cryogenics and error correction, it stands out with its photonics-based gear, which works at room temperature and integrates efficiently into existing fiber networks. Also, its Arizona foundry is pumping out thin-film lithium niobate chips for everything from telecom to sensing, with repeat customer orders stacking up. Hence, its catalog leans practical, not theoretical, and while its peers move forward on proprietary qubit platforms, Quantum Computing is positioning itself as the go-to enabler in the computing stock price slips after 3rd double-digit pop in June first appeared on TheStreet on Jun 17, 2025 This story was originally reported by TheStreet on Jun 17, 2025, where it first appeared.

AI ‘Factories' Are Hungry for Power. Expect ‘Gigawatt-Scale' Growth.
Did you know that artificial intelligence works in 'factories?' It does, but without an artificial lunchbox and an artificial hardhat. Factories are what AI chip maker Nvidia and electrical infrastructure supplier Schneider Electric call the data centers where ChatGPT or Alphabet's Gemini learn to answer users' questions and then help teenagers summarize The Odyssey. BofA Securities forecasts data-center spending will grow 12% a year on average for the coming few years, hitting more than $400 billion by 2028.

Is Nvidia Competing With Its GPU Cloud Partners?
Nvidia Headquarters in Santa Clara, CA. Nvidia recently announced two new cloud initiatives. First, the company announced DGX Cloud Lepton, designed to connect artificial intelligence developers with Nvidia's wide network of cloud providers. Second, Nvidia announced a new cloud service, the Industrial AI Cloud, intended to provide AI services to manufacturing companies in Europe. While these moves pit Nvidia against its cloud partners, the larger cloud service providers (CSPs) chose to compete with Nvidia using their in-house developed GPU alternatives. Google has the TPU, Amazon has Trainium, Microsoft has Maia, etc. (Nvidia is a client of Cambrian-AI Research.) Turn about is fair play, and Nvidia is helping its cloud partners sell AI services that keep their GPUs running at high utilization, maximizing profit, while also helping developers access a broader inventory of rare and expensive GPUs. Much to the consternation of its cloud partners, Nvidia launched the new DGX Cloud Lepton service at Computex this year, and has already garnered a healthy suite of CSPs to agree to join the service. While Oracle and Google have yet to sign up publicly for Lepton, Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure have done so. They see the benefits of having their clouds accessible and promoted by Nvidia. The smaller GPU cloud players have also joined the party, including CoreWeave, Crusoe, Firmus, Foxconn, GMI Cloud, Lambda, Yotta Data Services, Nebius, Nscale, Firebird, Fluidstack, Hydra Host, Scaleway, Together AI, Mistral AI, SoftBank Corp. These providers offer both on-demand and long-term GPU access, supporting a wide range of AI development and deployment needs. Other CSPs won't want to miss the train, and will likely join soon. At the Paris GTC, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced that Nvidia and Deutsche Telekom were building an AI Cloud for European manufacturing companies. The Industrial Cloud will provide access to state-of-the-art AI infrastructure and Nvidia's rich portfolio of software. Support will be available for CAD, CAE, Omniverse, Robotics, and Autonomous Vehicles. The cloud is fully configured to support Nvidia's optimized enterprise AI software portfolio, and should be open for business in early 2026. Nvidia's Industrial Cloud for Europe represents a major step in building sovereign, AI-powered infrastructure for the continent's industrial sector. By providing secure, high-performance compute resources and a robust AI software ecosystem, the initiative aims to propel European manufacturing into the next era of digital innovation Nvidia is partnering with Deutche Telekom to build the first Industrial AI Cloud for European ... More manufacturing companies. The Industrial Cloud will be powered by 10,000 Nvidia GPUs, including the latest DGX B200 systems and RTX PRO servers, making it one of the largest industrial AI deployments in Germany. Think of this as a manufacturing-focussed sovereign data center managed and operated by Deutsche Telekom, ensuring data sovereignty and compliance with European regulations, addressing concerns about dependency on non-European cloud providers. The lack of NVL72 racks tells us that Nvidia expects customers to fine-tune and serve AI inferencing, not create new foundation models. Users will have access to Nvidia's CUDA-X libraries and workloads accelerated by Nvidia GPUs and Omniverse, supporting a wide range of industrial applications such as simulation, digital twins, robotics, design, engineering, and factory planning. The cloud will also support applications from leading industrial software providers including Siemens, Ansys, Cadence, and Rescale, enabling advanced manufacturing workflows for companies such as BMW, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, and Schaeffle. First, it says that Nvidia isn't afraid to compete with its cloud partners in its quest to provide access to state-of-the-art AI infrastructure to its end users. As we noted, the larger CSPs chose to develop competing AI accelerators, so they should not be surprised. Second, in reality Lepton doesn't compete with CSPs; it provides aggregated access to their massive arrays of Nvidia GPUs, not a cloud that is owned and operated by Nvidia. And the Industrial Cloud is filling a gap left by the CSPs to provide focussed and sovereign resources for the European manufacturing base. Customers will love it, and so will the ISVs whose software has been optimized to run on Nvidia GPUs.
