Thanksgiving Trip Laptop?

Hey guys lol
I didnt think I would really ever want a gaming laptop but I was thinking about getting one in time for my Thanksgiving trip this Wednesday because I'm dumb and last minute, but I've hardly ever done much research into gaming laptops so I was hoping some people could point me in kind of the right direction with it
My current build has an Intel i5 6500, AMD RX 480, and 16 GB of RAM so I'd like to obviously find something with power like that but I can't go into the thousands range really so I can accept the possibility of that not happening, especially with how graphics card prices have changed since I initially built it (and i probably dont need that much ram lmao)
1 TB storage Would be Good but again idk what I'm going to have to sacrifice to fit the price range, its not really a big deal if I have to use external drives or anything I guess,,
The computer's main purpose is just to load up with a couple of games and run them when im on vacation, and when im not on vacation to just be a school computer with a game or two I can play during downtime.

I KNOW I should probably wait until black friday to buy anything but here I am anyway
