Best Cyber Monday PC gaming deals in Australia for 2024: Cyber Monday may be over, but the deals remain
We're curating and picking the best ones right here.
Cyber Monday is over, and with that, deals season is semi-officially over until Boxing Day. Nevertheless, it's hugely unlikely the deals will end now: if you've still got some Christmas shopping to mop up, or have had second thoughts about abstaining from PC gaming purchases, there's still plenty out there in sale land.
I've been covering Black Friday and Cyber Monday for years now, so I know that Cyber Monday generally doesn't end at midnight. Indeed, most of the Black Friday deals we saw last week will get a second lease on life this week, albeit sans the more remarkable deals.
So we'll continue to keep a close eye on all the best PC gaming related deals over the coming hours and days. Without further ado:
Where are the best Cyber Monday PC gaming deals?
Amazon - deals on anything from gaming laptops to 4K screens
Dell - save big on Alienware and Dell PCs and monitors
MSI - Great deals on MSI laptops plus bonus Black Friday hardware and accessories
Lenovo - savings on Legion gaming laptops and desktops

Secretlab - save up to AU$330 on some of the best gaming chairs

Cyber Monday 2024 gaming laptop & handheld deals in Australia
Up to 38% off
Lenovo has kickstarted its Black Friday business earlier this year, and one of the highlights is big discounts on its Lenovo Slim 5 Gen 9 gaming lappies, specifically those wielding AMD chips. To enjoy these discounts you need to use the eCoupon BFCM24 at checkout. Free shipping applies to both models.
Legion Slim 5 | Ryzen 7 8845HS | RTX 4060 | 16GB RAM | 512GB SSD | WQXGA | AU$2,999 AU$1,899
Legion Slim 5 | Ryzen 7 8845HS | RTX 4070 | 32GB RAM | 1TB SSD | WQXGA | AU$3,799 AU$2,499
Lenovo LOQ 15.6-inch | Core i5 | 16GB | RTX 4050 | 512GB SSD: was AU$2,039 now AU$1,299 from Lenovo
Save AU$740
If you're after an affordable gaming laptop that'll run most games smoothly at 1080p with silky smooth framerates, this is a great price. It doesn't have the smallest form factor going, but its looks nevertheless mean it can double as a work laptop too. You're not buying this for power: you're buying it for an affordable option to dive into games, albeit not at their highest settings.
Save AU$750
This is a great saving on a big mid-range 15.6 inch gaming laptop. The 1080p display boasts a smooth 144Hz refresh rate which, in concert with the i7-13620H CPU and 4060 GPU, will run modern games brilliantly in FHD. If these specs aren't what you're looking for, there's more MSI Cyborg deals are available at JB.
MSI Claw A1M handheld gaming PC: from AU$899, save up to AU$550
When it arrived earlier this year, one of the common complaints about MSI's Claw was that it was priced too high, but for Black Friday MSI AU's drastically slashing the price of the three models on sale locally, with the standout to us being the fastest and largest of the three, which is AU$600 off:
• Core Ultra 7 | 16GB RAM | 1TB SSD: was AU$1,499 now AU$899 (save AU$600)
The other two models carry smaller discounts:
• Core Ultra 7 | 16GB RAM | 512GB SSD: was AU$1,399 now AU$899 (save AU$450)
• Core Ultra 5 | 16GB RAM | 1TB SSD: was AU$1,299 now AU$899 (save AU$300)
These deals are available at a wide selection of AU retailers – simply scroll down and click on the model you're interested in on this MSI info page.
Cyber Monday 2024 gaming monitor deals in Australia
Save AU$648.50
This "stunning" QD-OLED panel is extremely tempting with 29% of the RRP carved off. It's a big generous 32 inch affair with a whopping 240Hz refresh rate and DisplayHDR 400. We rated this very highly in our review, and it currently tops our list of the best gaming monitors.
Save AU$415
At first glance, the RRP for the 27 inch 1440p gaming monitor might seem astoundingly steep. Hold your horses though, because this one's for the refresh rate junkies: it boasts a (some would claim exorbitantly) high 360Hz refresh rate, for those who want that. Definitely someone thing competitive players to consider. For this price, use the coupon code DNCPAU10.
If you want the 4K equivalent, which as a result comes in at a slightly lower 240Hz refresh rate, that's currently AU$1,281.05, down from AU$1,889.
Cyber Monday 2024 VR deals in Australia
Save AU$250
The Meta Quest 3 tops our list of the best VR headset, and this bundle deal is exceptionally good: some competitors are selling this 512GB model for AU$100 more without Batman: Arkham Shadow bundled in. This third iteration of Zuck's VR headset vastly improves over its predecessor (which mind you, is our second favourite headset—Valve can you fix this please?).
Cyber Monday 2024 gaming headset deals in Australia
Save AU$240.67
The RRP on this set of wireless gaming cans is absolutely bonkers, but this discount brings it down to something way more affordable, albeit a tad higher than the AU$479 we saw it go for on Black Friday. Our review was very enthusiastic, noting its "impressive connectivity, fast charging, hot-swappable batteries and great adjustability". Needless to say its sound quality is bleeding edge premium as well. Not many people need a headset this expensive (even with the discount) but if you're in the market, now's the time.
Save AU$92.11
The battery in this 2.4Hz wireless Turtle Beach headset can accommodate over 48 hours of wireless gaming, which is pretty impressive. Meanwhile, you can get 8.5 hours of playtime from a 15 minute charge. Inside there's 50mm drivers for booming audio, Spatial Audio support and a flip-to-mute mic. Good for PC, but will play nice with whatever consoles you have too, plus the Steam Deck.
save AU$82
While not as cheap as it was during Black Friday proper, this is still a good price for a wireless gaming headset with Dolby Audio 7.1. Best of all, it has both wireless and Bluetooth connectivity, making it very versatile. It's an over-air affair with an omni-directional mic, and compatibility across not only PC but all the consoles. It's also available in black for a few dollars more.
Save AU$142.96
This was down to AU$261 during Black Friday, but this less-substantial discount is still attractive if you want this set of cans. For the price you're getting a respected high-level headset which we praised for its good battery life, decent audience and comfort. In our 72/100 review we criticised its price and "unspectacular" mic, but perhaps those shortcomings are a little easier to bear with this whopping price cut. Available in Black and Magenta.
Cyber Monday 2024 gaming controller deals in Australia
Save AU$105
This beauty used to be our favourite drift-free hall effect gamepad before it was dethroned by the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro. I still love this controller and use it daily, especially due to its super-tactile microswitches. The onboard display is more useful than you'd think, and while the RGB is a little superfluous, it feels extremely good in the hands. Read my 90 / 100 review if you're unconvinced.
Save AU$74.12
This isn't the lowest price we've seen on this SCUF pad (that'd be AU$279.20) but it's still a decent chunk off a rather exorbitant RRP. It's all about customisation, and it's right up there on our list of best controllers for PC gamers thanks to its remappable back paddles, instant triggers, and solid build. This discount is only available for the grey controller; other colours are also discounted, though not by quite as much.
Save AU$30.95
It's not at all rare for this Xbox pad to go on sale during sales events, though the same price never applies to all colours. White is the cheapest so far for Black Friday, so if you need a new controller it's well worth biting, especially if you're wanting something that'll work across both desktop and Steam Deck.
Save AU$37.28
You're not playing fighting games on a keyboard, are you? I mean, that's fine if you are, but a controller is immeasurably better for this genre, and if you want to go all-in, a fight stick is even better. This 8BitDo board, sporting a fairly familiar colour palette, supports both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz connectivity for Nintendo Switch and Windows PCs.
Cyber Monday 2024 gaming keyboard deals in Australia
Save AU$100
If you want your keyboard to take up as little space as possible, this is a wireless 65 percenter with low profile optical switches. Small doesn't mean discreet though, so rest assured there's plenty of RGB on this thing. The ROG Falchion RX is the favourite low profile keyboard in our best gaming keyboard list, ticking just about every must-have box including great switches, a sturdy build, and plenty of connectivity options. This is the lowest price yet for this highly regarded model.
Cyber Monday 2024 gaming mouse deals in Australia
Save AU$84.87
Not as good as its AU$139 price during Black Friday, but still good. This mouse will come in handy to anyone who likes more complex games with lotsa commands. It has 16 programmable buttons and an impressive 150 hour battery life, with both wireless and Bluetooth connectivity (it comes packaged with a wireless dongle). You can even slide the 12 side bottoms along the right hand side of the mouse for perfect comfort.
Save AU$48.94
Glorious is hardly a household name but this is a mouse we can recommend: In Katie's review it's described as "the lightest RGB mouse around", and it better be, with all those holes. The ambidextrous affair is "optimized for competitive gaming", and has a 1000hz polling rate. It was down to AU$54 during Prime Day, and may drop further for Black Friday, but for now this is a great discount if you're keen on this model.
Cyber Monday 2024 component deals in Australia
Save AU$167.05
Samsung's 990 Pro 2TB internal solid state drive has received a big discount on Amazon, making a payload of storage a lot more affordable. With one of these, you could easily install Stalker 2 up to 12 times, which is great albeit pointless. This PCIe Gen4 M.2 2280 affair has read/write speeds up to 7450/6900 MB/s, so it's a very tidy fit for gaming. If you want even more space, how about:
4TB: AU$729 AU$667.95
