650 USD? Even if you're buying used I'd say good luck. You'd be looking 800 for a used laptop and maybe 1100 for a new one if you want an SSD and GTX 1050.

Have you considered an eGPU (external)? Buying a gaming laptop at this pricepoint will be severely suffering build quality.


You could buy a decent ultrabook for that price with a thunderbolt port, save further and buy an eGPU enclosure and a GPU for it at your pricepoint. Then you'd be able to upgrade the GPU down the line to whatever your heart desires.

My rig:

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 3.6Ghz, OC'ed to 4.2Ghz all core @ 1.25v + Corsair H60 120mm AIO

MB: Gigabyte B450 I Aorus Pro WiFi

RAM: Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB (2x16GB) 3600mhz CL16 (1-to-1 Infinity Fabric enabled)

GPU: Gigabyte RTX 2080 Super

*bought for $200 CAD off a friend who needed an RTX 3080, price was my reward.

CASE: InWinn A1 Plus in White with included 600w gold sfx PSU and included custom length cables

DISPLAY: 3x 20" AOC 1080p 60hz 4ms ,  32" RCA 1080p/60hz TV mounted above, all on a single arm.

 

Storage: C : 1TB WD Blue NVMe      D : 2TB Barracuda      E: 240GB Kingston V300 (scratch drive)

NAS: 240GB Kingston A400 + 6x 10+ year old 700GB Barracuda drives in my old FX8350+8GB DDR3 system

 

Logitech G15 1st Gen + Logitech G602 Wireless

Steam Controller +  Elite Series 2 controller + Logitech G29 Racing Wheel + Wingman Extreme Digital 3D Flight Stick

Sennheiser HD 4.40 Headphones + Pixel Buds 2 + Logitech Z213 2.1 Speakers

 

My Girlfriends Weeb-Ass Rig:

Razer Blade Pro 17 2020

10th Gen i7 10875H 8c/16t @5.1ghz 

17.3" 1080p 300Hz 100% sRGB, factory calibrated, 6mm bezel

RTX 2070 Max-Q 8GB

512GB generic NVMe

16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200Mhz

70.5 Whr Battery

Razer Huntsman Quartz, Razer Balistic Quartz, Razer Kraken Quartz Kitty Heaphones

*deep breath*

Razer Raptor 27" monitor, IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

If you can raise your budget go for this

 

for 800 dollars you can get an i7 and 1060 which is a heck of a deal

Walmart's op laptops are doing badly so they lowered the price to the point where they are actually a really good good deal

799? Damn, it just reminds me of how bad the laptop prices are in the UK. 

That's a pretty good deal though, if @jmtreport can stretch the budget then it's definitely a great option.
