Best Amazon Prime Day PC gaming deals

1. HP Victus 16 | RTX 4070 | Core i7 13700H | 16-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSD | $1,199 at Walmart
The Victus range isn't the HP brand that comes to mind when you think gaming laptop, but it's the affordable side of the business which is still able to pack a decent punch for the price. This RTX 4070-powered machine is the cheapest we've found toting Nvidia's third-tier mobile GPU, but it is a 120 W version, not the full 140 W monty. That will still deliver at the 1080p res of this screen and will work comfortably under this relatively slim 16-inch chassis. The rest of the spec—16 GB DDR5 and 1 TB SSD—are exactly what you'd hope for at this end of the market, too. A really good price for a seriously solid machine.

2. Razer Blade 14 | RTX 4070 | Ryzen 9 7940HS | 14-inch | 2560 x 1600 | 240 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD | $2,699.99 $1,699.99 at Best Buy (save $1,000)
14 inches and Razer's Blade engineering is a killer combo. But it's horribly expensive. Normally, that is. Thanks to Amazon Prime Day, Best Buy is getting in on the deal action and this RTX 4070 equipped model is actually cheaper than the RTX 4060 model we featured earlier. But you get the same AMD CPU, the same 1440p display, the same 16GB of memory and the same 1TB SSD. You get the idea, it's basically the same except for the superior Nvidia GPU and for less money. Boom.

3. Yeyian Yumi  | Core i5 12400F | Nvidia RTX 4060 | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $1,199 $779 at Newegg (save $420)
The Yumi is a bit of a classic when it comes to gaming PC deals, as it's always there or thereabouts. At the moment this is the cheapest RTX 4060-based PC we've found, and comes with a supporting spec that is absolutely solid, even if it's not the latest and greatest. The combo of Alder Lake Core i5 and DDR4 memory means you still get the capacity, and a healthy core count, but without the expense of the very latest hybrid Intel chips or pricier DDR5 memory. And gaming performance will vary very little.

4. Team Group MP44L | 2TB | NVMe | PCIe 4.0 | 4,800 MB/s read | 4,400 MB/s write | $139.99 $99.99 at Newegg (save $40)
There's no DRAM to boost sustained performance and the SLC cache isn't especially big, either. But the speed is good enough for most workloads and when 1 TB of storage costs this much, who cares that it's not flash or fancy? Not us, that's for sure.

5. HP Victus 15 | RTX 4050 | Ryzen 5 8645HS | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 8 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD | $979 $599 at Walmart (save $380)
Let's be upfront about this, nobody wants a laptop with just 8 GB of RAM in 2024. But when you're talking about a gaming notebook that costs just $600, but with a decent RTX 40-series GPU inside it, I can swallow it. Especially when you can easily upgrade the RAM with just a wee screwdriver in-hand. And 16 GB of fast dual-channel DDR5 is just $50-odd right now. The RTX 4050 is just a 75 W variant, so not the outright fastest, but will still definitely do a job at 1080p, and for this money, that's all you can ask.

6. Zotac RTX 4060 | 8 GB GDDR6 | 3,072 shaders | 2,475 MHz boost | $299.99 $274.99 at Newegg (save $25 with promo code FANDUA5739)
If you must have Ada Lovelace, Nvidia's latest gaming architecture, the cheapest way in is this RTX 4060. Faster than the RTX 3060 but the price suggests it should have been better. You do get the full DLSS 3.5 suite, though, and it's pretty decent at encoding video for streaming. Nevertheless, we prefer AMD's RX 7600 or last-gen RX 6700. Use promo code FANDUA5739 for the full discount.

7. Corsair TC100 Relaxed | Fabric | $249.99 $238.99 at Newegg (save $11)
I know it's not the greatest discount ever but, as one of the best gaming chairs that's already a great buy at full price, it's well worth a look. Especially when you consider you're getting a super comfortable gaming chair with space to sit cross legged, and one that doesn't have silly go-faster stripe racing aesthetic.

Price check: Amazon $249.99

8. Acer Nitro XV271U M3bmiiprx | 27-inch | 180Hz | 1440p | 0.5 ms G2G resposne | IPS | $289.99 $169.99 at Amazon (save $120)

This Acer monitor is a steal for all you prospective competitive gamers, hitting a high refresh rate and low response time sweet spot (0.5-1 ms gray-to-gray). It's the same price as the Odyssey G5 below but is better for those of you who prefer an IPS panel to a VA.

Price check: Newegg $281.99

9. Secretlab Titan Evo | 'Signatures' designs | Magnetic cushions | $549 $519 at Secretlab (save $30)
The Titan Evo is our favorite gaming chair, and has been for the longest time. It's the benchmark by which we judge all other gaming chairs—it's comfortable, supportive, and easy to assemble. The holy trinity. Buying direct from Secretlab is the only way to pick up this chair at this price right now.

10. Zotac RTX 4070 Ti Super | 16 GB GDDR6X | 8,448 shaders | 2,610 MHz boost | $779.99 $759.99 at Newegg (save $20 with promo code FANDUA5745)
The RTX 4070 Ti Super might be relatively new to the market, but we're finally seeing discounts on what is a very performant card. This Zotac model is as solid as they come with a tri-fan cooler, and with the power of DLSS 3 makes for a mighty addition to any gaming rig. Use promo code FANDUA5745 at checkout for the full discount.

Steam Deck (LCD) | 512GB SSD | $449 at Steam
Okay, the Steam Deck may have had an OLED refresh but the original version is still the archetype of what a mobile PC gaming device should be. It's just as powerful as the most recent model so all those Steam Deck compatible games should run well. It's the OG PC gaming handheld, and it still demands respect.

Asus ROG Ally | AMD Z1 Extreme | 7-inch 1080p | 120 Hz | 16GB RAM | 512GB SSD | $649.99 $549.99 at Best Buy (save $100)
The most powerful version of one of the best PC gaming handhelds is back at a discounted price. The Asus Ally surprised us at launch with its relatively low MSRP (for a premium Asus product), and now it's even cheaper. Has the time come for you to get in on some handheld gaming action?

Lenovo Legion Go | AMD Z1 Extreme | 8.8-inch 1080p | 144 Hz | 16GB RAM | 512GB SSD | $699.99 $599.99 at  (save $100)
If detachable controllers are your thing, the Legion Go comes with a sweet, 8.8-inch, 2560 x 1600p panel so you can dock it and lean back a little. It's chunky and a little over the top, screen-wise, when it comes to games that require more high-fidelity, but it's a great little machine for storming through your indie game backlog on the go.

HP Victus 15 | RTX 4050 | Ryzen 5 8645HS | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 8 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD | $979 $599 at Walmart (save $380)
Let's be upfront about this, nobody wants a laptop with just 8 GB of RAM in 2024. But when you're talking about a gaming notebook that costs just $600, but with a decent RTX 40-series GPU inside it, I can swallow it. Especially when you can easily upgrade the RAM with just a wee screwdriver in-hand. And 16 GB of fast dual-channel DDR5 is just $50-odd right now. The RTX 4050 is just a 75 W variant, so not the outright fastest, but will still definitely do a job at 1080p, and for this money, that's all you can ask.

Acer Nitro V | RTX 4060 | Core i7 13620H | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD | $1,099.99 $849.99 at Best Buy (save $250)
This is the cheapest RTX 4060 gaming laptop we've found over Prime Day so far, and it looks like a pretty solid buy, too. Laptop GPUs can be tough to parse in terms of their power and therefore performance, but I'm pretty confident this is a 75 W RTX 4060, which is on par with the significantly more expensive Gigabyte G5 we've been recommending for an age. My only real concern here is the meager 512 GB SSD, when 1 TB feels like a modern minimum for gamers. But the chassis is easy to open and comes with a spare M.2 SSD slot making that a simple problem to fix, and a relatively cheap one, too.

Dell G15 | RTX 4060 | Ryzen 7 7840HS | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 165 Hz | 16 GB DDR5-4800 | 512 GB SSD | $999.97 $949.99 at Amazon (save $49.98)
Dell's angular chassis definitely feels like it's had some Alienware influence on it, but it is quite a bezel-happy thing. Still, you are getting a decent spec for a decent sub-$1,000 price. That includes an RTX 4060 that will certainly do a job with the 1080p display. But it's a slick 165 Hz panel, and you're getting a full 16GB of dual-channel DDR5, the mighty AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS CPU, though only a  512 GB SSD. Still, this is a lot of laptop for not a huge chunk of cash.

Gigabyte G5 | RTX 4060 | Core i7 12650H | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16GB DDR4 | 1TB SSD | $969 at Amazon
The ol' Gigabyte G5 has been a classic when it comes to budget gaming laptops for a long while now, and just when you thought it had disappeared it's back with better specs and a still sub-$1,000 price tag. As we discovered when we reviewed the Core i5 version of the G5, it's a great little gaming laptop, and with the extra storage and slightly better CPU this is a quality machine for the money. If you're happy with just a 512GB SSD (or have a bigger one ready to drop in) you could save a little more cash and go for the 512GB $922 version.

Price check: Newegg $1,124.99

Lenovo Legion Slim 5 | RTX 4060 | Ryzen 5 7640HS | 16-inch | 1200p | 144 Hz | 16GB DDR5 | 512GB SSD | $1,349.99 $969 at Amazon (save $380.99)
This is an amazing price for a 140W RTX 4060 gaming laptop. Sure the screen is a little large for a relatively small 1200p resolution in terms of pixel pitch, but in game you'll get a great level of performance out of the GPU. The SSD also isn't very large, but these are minor quibbles when the rest of the system is so good. It's a great price for a great laptop.

Price check: Newegg $1,234.99 | Best Buy $1,349.99

Acer Nitro 16 | RTX 4070 | Ryzen 7 7735HS | 16-inch | 1600p | 165 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD | $1,199.99 $1,129.99 at Newegg (save $70)
Forget an RTX 4060 laptop at this price point, you can secure yourself an RTX 4070 for the same money. Not only does this machine come with a bigger GPU than most for the money, the rest of this laptop is awesome, too. A fantastic Ryzen 7040-series CPU is paired with 16 GB of DDR5 and a 1600p screen. Only downside is that 512 GB SSD, though you could swap it out for something bigger.

Asus TUF F15 | RTX 4070 | Core i7 13620H | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5-4800 | 1TB SSD | $1,399.99 $1,149.99 at Best Buy (save $250)
This is a gaming laptop deal that makes it tough to recommend RTX 4060 machines for anything near to a grand. With a genuine RTX 4070 GPU in a system for this much you're got a lot of gaming power for a great price. We did see a 12th Gen version for $980 around Black Friday last year, so there is precedent, but we've not seen a similarly specced system down around this price since.

HP Victus 16 | RTX 4070 | Core i7 13700H | 16-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSD | $1,199 at Walmart
The Victus range isn't the HP brand that comes to mind when you think gaming laptop, but it's the affordable side of the business which is still able to pack a decent punch for the price. This RTX 4070-powered machine is the cheapest we've found toting Nvidia's third-tier mobile GPU, but it is a 120 W version, not the full 140 W monty.

Gigabyte Aorus 15 | RTX 4070 | Core i7 13700H | 16-inch | 1440p | 160 Hz | 16GB DDR5 | 1TB SSD | $1,399.99 $1,249.99 at Newegg (save $150)
Last year's Aorus 15 is still a very good mid-range gaming laptop. It's not as overtly gamer-aggressive in styling as previous Aorus machines, and yet it's still got all the gaming goods you would want from a 15-incher. The 165 Hz, 1440p panel comes with an impressively thin bezel and compliments the 140 W RTX 4070 that Gigabyte is packing inside it. The classic 16GB / 1TB memory/storage combo is plenty good enough to support the 14-core Core i7 chip at its heart, too.

Price check: Amazon $1,249.99

HP Omen Transcend 14 | RTX 4060 | Core Ultra 7 155H | 14-inch | 120 Hz | 2880 x 1800 | OLED | 512GB SSD | 16GB DDR5-7500 | $1,599.99 $1,199.99 at HP (save $400)
This lovely 14-incher is pretty expensive for an RTX 4060 but it's still the best compact gaming laptop around. You get an excellent OLED panel as standard and a 65W GPU that will still deliver a quality gaming experience. The 512GB SSD is a bit small, but you can configure the machine with a 1TB drive if you're willing to spend a bit more. Shame the battery life isn't so good, but that's small gaming laptops for you

Gigabyte Aorus 17H | RTX 4070 | Core i7 13700H | 17.3-inch | 1440p | 240 Hz | 16GB DDR5-4800 | 1TB SSD | $1,749 $1,529.99 at Amazon (save $219.01)
This is a big laptop that, for once, hasn't packed with the most power-hungry components. That Core i7 is easier to keep cool than an i9 and it's a more suitable match for the 140W RTX 4070 alongside. It is $200 more than the Asus TUF above but you're getting a much nicer display.

Gigabyte Aorus 17H | RTX 4080 | Core i7 13700H | 17.3-inch | 1080p | 360 Hz | 16GB DDR5-4800 | 1TB SSD | $1,849 $1,769.99 at Newegg (save $79.01)
$1,800 for a laptop with a 1080p screen? Ignore that for the moment and note that you're getting a decent CPU, a 150W RTX 4080, and a nice amount of storage. Then focus on the fact that the screen is enormous (for a laptop) and super-fast, and what you're looking at is something that's idle for e-sports and competitive shooter fans. Gigabyte's control app isn't the best, though.

Razer Blade 14 | RTX 4070 | Ryzen 9 7940HS | 14-inch | 2560 x 1600 | 240 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD | $2,699.99 $1,699.99 at Best Buy (save $1.000)
14 inches and Razer's Blade engineering is a killer combo. But it's horribly expensive. Normally, that is. Thanks to Amazon Prime Day, Best Buy is getting in on the deal action and this RTX 4070 equipped model is actually cheaper than the RTX 4060 model we featured earlier. But you get the same AMD CPU, the same 1440p display, the same 16GB of memory and the same 1TB SSD. You get the idea, it's basically the same except for the superior Nvidia GPU and for less money. Boom.

Lenovo Legion Pro 7i | RTX 4080 | Core i9 13900HX | 16-inch | 1600p | 240 Hz | 32GB DDR5-5600 | 1TB SSD | $2,799 $2,049 at B&H Photo (save $750)
Let's be honest, at this point, this isn't a deal on the best RTX 4080 laptop I've tested, this is just the price that it is. It's effectively been on offer at B&H at this level for a year now, but it's a fantastic notebook, offering performance that can often match and sometimes beat an RTX 4090-based system (see our review). There's a high-performance CPU to back it up, a decent, bright 1600p screen, and a fair amount of storage. All with a discount.

Razer Blade 16 | RTX 4080 | Core i9 13950HX | 16-inch | QHD+ | 240 Hz | 32 GB DDR5-5600 | 1 TB SSD | $3,599.99 $2,599.99 at Amazon (save $1,000)
There's no escaping Razer's premium pricing, though you can ease it a little with a deal like this. This is last year's model though you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference in many ways. It comes with an RTX 4080 mobile chip and the Core i9 13950HX—more or less the best spec you should reasonably want inside a gaming laptop today.

NXS gaming desktop | AMD Ryzen 5 5600G | 16 GB DDR4-3600 | 512 GB NVMe SSD | $489 at Newegg
You can game on this machine to a certain extent—the integrated Vega GPU on the Ryzen chip will certainly support 720p gaming at lower settings. But we're listing it here as a good base from which to add your own graphics card for a quick new gaming PC on a tight budget. The AMD CPU is a good six-core, 12-thread job, and the 16 GB RAM will run everything you need.

Yeyian Yumi  | Ryzen 5 5600X | Nvidia RTX 4060 | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $1,199 $799 at Newegg (save $400)
The Yumi is a bit of a classic when it comes to gaming PC deals, as it's always there or thereabouts. At the moment this is the cheapest RTX 4060-based PC we've found, and comes with a supporting spec that is absolutely solid, even if it's not the latest and greatest. The combination of DDR4 RAM and a previous gen Ryzen 5 might not be top-end, but this machine will still deliver great performance for under a grand.

Ipason gaming desktop | Ryzen 5 5600 | Radeon RX 7600 | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $1,399 $849 at Newegg (save $550)
If you don't want to get busy with a screwdriver, Ipason has a budget offering with a built-in upgrade over its $489 5600G-sporting PC, this time with an RX 7600 GPU at its heart. That offers sometimes better than RTX 4060 gaming performance, and the full system comes with a solid back-up spec, too. The Ryzen 5 5600 might not be the latest and greatest but it's still very capable as a gaming CPU, and that 1 TB SSD gives you a decent amount of space for a few big games and all your files.

iBuyPower TraceMesh | RTX 4060 | Ryzen 7 5700 | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $999 $889 at Walmart (save $110)
We've been into the Yeyian Yumi for its CPU/GPU combo, but this ups the ante with a full eight-core/16-thread chip at its heart to complement the RTX 4060 GPU, which you might prefer to the RX 7600 in the Ipason above. The RAM and SSD are fine for a sub-$900 PC, too.

ABS Cyclone Aqua | Core i5 13400F | GeForce RTX 4060 Ti | 32 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $1,099.99 $929.99 at Newegg (save $170)
It's a last-gen Intel CPU but the 13400F is the best budget gaming processor you can get. It's an ideal match for the RTX 4060 Ti, and the rest of the specs are nicely balanced, too. Sure it would be nice to have DDR5 system memory, but 32 GB will ensure no game is going to be left wanting more. For the price, there's very little to complain about.

ABS Cyclone Aqua  | Intel Core i5 13700F | RTX 4070 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD | $1,699 $1,199.99 at Newegg (save $500)
The all-important CPU/GPU combo is strong with this one, what with Intel's Core i5 13700F being a stupendous gaming chip and the OG RTX 4070 still making for a great mid-range GPU. The SSD speeds aren't the greatest, but you could always add in something cheap and speedy from our cheap SSD deals. Plenty of fast RAM too, which is nice to see at this price.

ABS Orkan Ruby | Ryzen 7 7700X | RTX 4070 Super | 32GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD | $1,699.99 $1,399.99 at Newegg (save $300)
The Ryzen 7 7700X is a powerful gaming chip, and this PC gets you on AMD's AM5 platform for a very reasonable sum. Combined with 32 GB of fast DDR5 and the RTX 4070 Super, which is a decent bit faster than the standard RTX 4070, this machine makes a whole lot of sense as an upper mid-range monster with specs to spare.

Skytech King | Ryzen 7 7800X3D | Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti Super | 32GB DDR5-5200 | 1TB SSD | $2,199.99 $1,879.99 at Newegg (save $320 with Newegg+ membership and promo code FTTPDUA5268)
The 7800X3D is quite simply the best gaming CPU we've tested, although it must be said it gets beaten out as an all-rounder chip by some of Intel's offerings. Still, if high framerates are your main concern, this beastly CPU in combination with an RTX 4070 Ti Super and 32 GB of DDR5 should scream through games with ease.

ABS Vortex-X Ruby | Ryzen 7 7700X | RTX 4080 Super | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD | $2,399 $1,999.99 at Newegg (save $400)
It's been a little while since we've seen an RTX 4080 Super-equipped machine at $2,000, but this system strikes as a very well-balanced and powerful set of components. The 7700X is a very speedy gaming CPU, and combined with 32 GB of fast DDR5 and that beastly GPU this PC should fly through even the most demanding of games. As is often the case, however, you'll probably want to add in some sizeable storage when you get the chance.

Cooler Master TD5 Pro | Core i7 14700KF | RX 7900 XTX| 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1TB SSD | $2,299.99 $2,079.99 at Newegg (save $220)
The case might look a bit old-school from the front but it's what's inside that matters. Fortunately, it's all good, with a fast 20-core, 28-thread CPU, AMD's best gaming GPU with 24 GB of VRAM, plenty of fast DDR5 RAM, and a decent-sized SSD (though, you'll soon want to stick a larger drive in). The motherboard supports overclocking and all of the cooling stuff is Cooler Master's own gear, so you'll know it will be up to the job.

ABS Kaze Aqua | Core i9 13900K | RTX 4090 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 2 TB SSD | $3,699 $2,799.99 at Newegg (save $900)
RTX 4090 machines are still hugely expensive, but this is the cheapest well-specced version we've seen in a while. You might still have to pay a pretty penny, but what you're getting here is the fastest gaming GPU you can currently buy in conjunction with a mega-fast i9 13900K and a healthy dose of DDR5. 2 TB of storage, too, which should give you plenty of room for a load of games and files.
