Intel® Gamer Days are here (from August 28th until September 4th) and Best Buy Canada is kicking them off in a big way! During Intel Gamer Days you’ll find great deals on PC Gaming laptops, components, and on amazing PC Gaming accessories. Get ready to learn about some amazing gaming computers powered by Intel 10th gen processors then find out how to enter: you might win the gaming laptop of your dreams!

Are you ready to gain a competitive edge with a new HP gaming laptop

What makes you a competitive gamer? Hours and hours of game play certainly contributes to a great player. But that only goes so far. What about with a new game, like the new Marvel Avengers PC game coming out in early September? Everyone will be playing it for the first time (the experience will even be new for the precious few like our gaming reviewers who played the beta earlier this summer). Playing a new game, designed to capitalize on the newest processors like the Intel i7 CML-H processors in many of today’s newest and fastest gaming laptops, is another way to have a competitive edge over the competition.

That competitive edge is available, right out of the box, with the new HP OMEN laptop we are giving away as the Grand Prize of this contest. It has that Intel i7 processor I just mentioned, 16 GB of RAM, 512 GB of storage, an Nvidia GeForce GTX1650Ti 4GB graphics card and more. Stunning to look at but even better to play games on. Yes you can do many things better on this computer than on most other computers (video editing, business applications … the list goes on) but gaming is one of the most demanding tasks for any computer, and this HP laptop will take your game to places you didn’t think possible.

Intel Gamer Days bring you savings on many gaming laptops

This contest is a celebration of this amazing event that Intel is putting on. You’ll find lot of gaming laptops from many manufactures like HP (as mentioned above), Acer, Dell, and MSI at incredible savings during the event. In addition, with every gaming laptop purchased, you’ll get a free copy of the new Marvel Avengers PC game (game code will be provided once the game launches on September 4th). As such, we wanted to demonstrate how great it is with a range of great gaming computer prizes.

There are 3 amazing second prizes available as well. Each has the same great Intel I7 processor I already mentioned and fantastic components to ensure your gaming gets a whole new competitive edge.

Dell G3 15.6″ Gaming Laptop – Black (Intel Core i7-10750H/512GB SSD/16GB RAM/RTX 2060/Windows 10)
Acer Nitro 5 15.6″ Gaming Laptop – Black (Intel Core i7-10750H/512GB SSD/16GB RAM/NVIDIA GTX 1650Ti)
MSI GS66 Stealth 15.6″ Gaming Laptop – Black (Intel i7-10750H/1TB SSD/16GB RAM/GeForce RTX2060)

This is definitely a prize lineup assembled to make a gaming statement! Do you want to be a part of this event? Then read carefully the sections below so you don’t miss this unique opportunity.

  11. 1.
    Something that really gives me an edge at this moment is my laptop graphics card and my internet connection. I feel like when I am playing FPS games the internet connection online is extremely important and a lot of the time I come ahead because of that.

    2.
    I really want to add a really good gaming monitor to my current setup. I am thinking something like the Asus 165 HZ 1 ms one at the moment. I’m not sure which one but definitely need one.

  12. My sons competitive edge is he is positivity. He’s 11 years old and is pretty good at gaming…… his Asus gaming laptop broke and hasn’t really complained about not having it. He always encourages and plays with his friends who are not as good as him. Way to go Adam. Positivity is his edge!!!!

  17. Paying Attention To My Friends And Streamers Gives Me A Competitive Edge.The product on Best Buy Canada’s PC Gaming page that I would you like to add to my gaming setup is a gaming desktop computer: ASUS Strix GT15 Gaming PC – Star Black (Intel Core i7-10700KF/2TB HDD/512GB SSD/16GB RAM/RTX 2070 SUPER)

  19. My competitive edge is through experience and being able to keep my cool in stressful or difficult games. My gaming gear could use a better chair, I really like the look of the ‘My Style Collection Ace Ergonomic Faux Leather Gaming Chair – Red/Black’.

    2. I’d add HP OMEN 15.6″ Gaming Laptop – Black (Intel i7-10750H/1TB SSD/16GB RAM/GeForce RTX 2060) since I don’t have a “gaming setup”.

  22. What gives me a competitive advantage is my aggressive and unorthodox playing style. I’m not afraid to push and peek the enemy when others would hide and wait. This allows me to get the drop on them and usually end up winning the trade.

    One product I would like to add to my gaming setup is actually a new PC as I am long overdue for an upgrade.

    One product that caught my attention is ASUS Strix GT15 Gaming PC – Star Black (Intel Core i7-10700KF/2TB HDD/512GB SSD/16GB RAM/RTX 2070 SUPER)

  23. 1)What gives you a competitive edge: perhaps it’s something about your gaming style, or some technology you can’t live without?
    – Actually, both. One is critical thinking and time management (I use most when I play strategy games). Second is the technology that creates competitive PC performances to make games and other applications to run as smooth as possible, such as new GPU, CPU, monitor, etc.
    2) Which product on Best Buy Canada’s PC Gaming page would you like to add to your current gaming setup?
    – I’m hoping to get a new mouse soon, like Corsair Scimitar.

  24. Comfortable keyboard and mouse. If the keyboard is better, my hands don’t get as sore and it’s easier to type faster. A comfortable mouse also reduces hand strain.

    I would love to get some decent headphones for music production to prevent long term ear damage from constantly wearing earbuds. Maybe SteelSeries Arctis 1 Wireless Gaming Headset for PC – Black.

    Or a nice keyboard like Logitech Wireless Wave Laser Keyboard & Mouse Combo (MK550)!

    Thank you for reading this!

  25. What gives you a competitive edge: Having a responsive computer system with large clear pair of monitors I find helps me to compete and stay competitively on top.

    Which product on Best Buy Canada’s PC Gaming page would you like to add to your current gaming setup? There are so many items on the Best Buy Canada’s PC Gaming page that I would love to add to my current gaming setup such as the Acer Nitro Gaming PC (Intel Core Ci7-9700/1TB HDD/256GB SSD/16GB RAM/GeForce GTX 1660 Ti) Model Number: N50-600-EB19 Web Code: 13985813 as my current system is a bit slower and the discount of $200 sure helps.

  26. New gamer so I’m very keen to learn
    PulseLabz Guardian Ergonomic Executive Desk Office Gaming Chair – Black, might as well be comfortable!

  27. My competitive edge comes from my monitor. Crystal clear and beautiful.

    I’d love to add the ASUS ROG Strix G15
    15.6″ Gaming Laptop ( or any laptop) to my set up so I can use it for school. I’d also love to start upgrading my outdated pc.

  28. 1) actually enjoying the game
    2) this breast: Samsung Odyssey G9 49″ DQHD 240Hz 1ms GTG Curved VA LED G-Sync Gaming Monitor

  29. Been gaming for as long as I can remember. Experience is the greatest advantage.
    Would love to try out the Omen. Thanks for the offer and good luck ro all.

  30. 1, i play to have fun, helps stay relaxed and focused

    2. a Corsair Scimitar PRO RGB 16000 DPI Optical Gaming Mouse would be a fine addition to my collection! and be a good replacement for my cheap $5 mouse i have now lol

  31. I think what makes me better at competitive games is just playing a whole bunch until I get good. Practice makes perfect.
    I would love to add a new monitor to my desk, the Asus rog Strix 27″ (XG279Q).

  32. 1. My ability to to stay calm and collected
    2. Would love to have ASUS TUF 24″ FHD 144Hz 1ms GTG IPS LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor

  33. I have no edge. I’m genuinely terrible at most games. Perhaps people take enough pity on me to let me win. Is that an advantage? I think so.

    The NETGEAR Nighthawk may help a bit considering I live in the middle of nowhere….

  34. To be able to game more often having a mobile gaming set up would give me a competitive edge, and I’m still looking to add a asus 4K curved monitor to my current set up.

  35. My competitive edge is that I’m a quick learner. It doesn’t take me long to get comfortable with a new game.
    I would like to add the Brassex Milo Fabric Gaming Chair to my set-up. It has a tilt and recline feature that I would love in a new chair.

  36. My edge is my patience. I may not have the twitch reflexes but I can wait for the right moment when I don’t need them. Like a sloth.

    I’d like the Razer Kraken Gaming Headset with Microphone, voice comms are really important to coordinate a team.

  37. 1. When it comes to gaming, in order to be competitive in most fps shooters and even 3rd person, a keyboard and mouse is always my go to choice.

    2. I’ve always been into racing games on the PC, so I would love to add the Logitech G920 racing wheel to my gaming setup to provide me with a competitive edge in sim racing games.

  38. Patience is virtue! I absolutely love to arm myself with a sniper with a long-range scope, get myself to a pretty secure place, and absolutely wreck others’ days.
    I’m gaming on an old laptop now and would love to switch to the full PC gaming experience. I would love an ASUS Strix Gaming PC – Black (AMD Ryzen 7 3700X/2TB HDD/512GB SSD/16GB RAM/GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER) from BestBuy!!!

  39. When I play, i tend to pay attention to details and get the best gear possible early on. I think that despite a good system, my Logitech mouse is my best companion that is precise and doesn’t strain my hand on the hours I put while playing.

    To match my awesome Asus Rog Strix laptop I purchased from BestBuy earlier this year – an ASUS Rog Strix 27″ ultra HD 144Hz monitor would greatly improve my setup.

  40. Being willing to learn. Which can be done in so many different ways such as: taking advice and watching others, researching, making mistakes and practicing. At least for me everything seems to come in time, as long as I’m willing to take the time to learn. Just in the middle of updating my gaming station and a new mechanical keyboard such as the Corsair K70 RGB in silver that would just be the cherry on top! 😉

  41. Keeping in mind that I am playing to have fun makes me less nervous in competative games.
    I always wanted to have one of these
    Sennheiser GSP 500 Gaming Headset With Microphone (507261) – Black/Red

  42. My competitive edge is my determination. The Acer 27″ 1080p HD 75Hz 1ms GTG TN LED Gaming Monitor (GF276 Abmipx) would be a fabulous addition to my current gaming setup.

  43. My competitive edge come from studying metas and a lot of practice. 🙂
    An upgrade to my gaming set up would defiantly include the a beefcake like – Alienware Aurora R9 Gaming PC – Lunar Light (Intel Ci7-9700/1TB HDD/256GB SSD/16GB RAM/RTX 2070 Super)

  44. I like a fast system and I think that gives me the edge. I would like the ASUS ROG Strix SCAR II GL504GW-DS74 15.6” Gaming Laptop

  45. honestly practice practice practice. Whether it be game sense for shooters like rainbow six siege or valorant, or the aim, or chill games such as the division 2, it all comes down to experience for me.
    My dream Gaming laptop right now is the ASUS ROG Strix G15 15.6″ Gaming Laptop . i dont have a battle station yet so i want to start of with mid tier gaming machine. I have been working really hard on saving up for it. But of course, COVID-19 will be delaying this. but i have faith. 🙂

  46. Patience! With 2 Xbox’s, a ps4, laptop, cellphones and smart tv connected to Netflix we go through a LOT of data. I would love to add an HP OMEN 15 Gaming laptop to the arsenal!

  47. My competitive edge is my ability to focus and not lose concentration. I would like to add the Nanoleaf Light Panels to my current gaming setup.

  48. My edge is patience – for the longest time I put up with just 10mbps download speed in a household of 4 gamers! 🙁 We now have 25mbps which is still ugly internet which is why I tend to play less esports and FPS games and stick to strategy. Aside from a piece of the new gpus coming out a gaming monitor would help me enjoy games more for their creativity and style despite my internet. Something like this would work: ASUS 27″ 1440p WQHD 155Hz IPS LED G-Sync Gaming Monitor (VG27AQ)
