Acer is selling a recertified Ryzen laptop with RX 560X graphics for $430 today

The best gaming laptops have one thing in common—a discrete GPU. Typically that's not something you find in the budget space, though Acer is selling a its Nitro 5 laptop with a Radeon RX 560X tucked inside for only $429.99 today.

This is a recertified machine, but it's coming direct from Acer (through Ebay) rather than a third-party seller. It comes with a 90-day warranty. That's enough time to give it a proper burn-in.
