The Acer Nitro 5 comes in both 17.3- and 15.6-inch sizes. A 17-inch laptop is a rarity with entry-level gaming laptops; most sub-$1,000 gaming laptops have 15.6-inch displays, and the Acer's larger screen lets you sink in and get lost in whatever world you're playing in.
The Aspire 7 isn't a "gaming" laptop but is a great option if you're looking for a home office laptop that's also good for gaming. Along with an Nvidia GTX 1650 graphics card and a 10th-gen Intel Core i5 processor, you get a good 15.6-inch full-HD display and a bevy of ports for $800.

Trump Signs Spending Bill, Pandemic Aid Package | Voice of America - English
With the clock ticking toward a potential U.S. government shutdown, President Donald Trump Sunday signed a $2.3 trillion funding measure that includes $900 billion for coronavirus relief and $1.4 trillion for government funding through next September.
