Best Black Friday PC gaming deals 2025: The best discounts on the best gaming gear

This is a great price for all you SFF (small form factor) lovers. You're getting an older and not very powerful CPU, and only 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, but for a cheap, portable gaming system these should serve just fine alongside the RTX 5060. Usually you have to pay the SFF tax for a mini PC, so it's great to see such a low price on this one. Don't expect miracles with this hardware, but for some light gaming and a small physical footprint, look no further.

This is pretty much the cheapest RTX 5070 Ti laptop you can find in the UK right now, and definitely the best deal overall on something with Nvidia's mid-to-high-end-straddling GPU. It's a well-balanced customer, what with an eight-core 16-thread AMD chip at its heart, 32 GB of RAM, and a 180 Hz 1600p display. It's only a 115 W variant of the RTX 5070 Ti, but that should still make for a mighty mobile chip. It's quite the deal, given the components inside—although I'd imagine the chassis isn't all that given Nitro models previous.

The RTX 5070 is a good deal faster than its predecessor, the RTX 4070, and it's priced very similarly. Other 5070 models are more expensive than this one, so don't waste your money on them. This one will do everything you need, and it's well under Nvidia's MSRP.

It's pretty wild what you can get these days for a relatively small sum of money. This is a 27-inch monitor for roughly the same price as some smaller 24-inch panels, and it still rocks an IPS display, 1 ms response time, and a 165 Hz refresh rate. Fantastic for gaming on a budget.

With more entry-level RTX 50-series graphics cards on the market, we're seeing builds like this pop up, which should offer decent current-gen gaming performance without breaking the bank. The RTX 5060 Ti in this is paired with a previous-gen Intel CPU that has 6 P-Cores, which should be more than enough for mainstream gaming. Just bear in mind you're only getting 16 GB of DDR4 RAM here. It'll almost certainly be worth upgrading to 32 GB of fast DDR4 RAM when you can.

Key specs: Core i5 14400F | RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB | 16 GB DDR4 | 1 TB SSD

At this price point, it makes sense to opt for an RTX 5070 or RX 9070 gaming PC. This build in particular is pretty well-rounded for a circa £1,600-£,1700 rig. The Ryzen 5 7600 is more than adequate for gaming today (though don't expect miracles), and 32 GB of DDR5 memory and 2 TB of storage is the sweet spot for midrange and even high-end gaming PCs.

Key specs: Ryzen 5 5600 | RTX 5070 | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD

The RX 9070 XT is AMD's top-end GPU offering right now, and with it you're getting RTX 5070 Ti-competing performance. That means high-end mainstream gaming at 1440p. Combined with a decent mid-range current-gen CPU you're getting a powerful setup, here. You'll probably want to double up that RAM and storage capacity before too long, though.

Key specs: Ryzen 5 9600X | RX 9070 XT | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD

This Horizon build is like the one above, except it packs in a current-gen Ryzen 5 CPU and an RTX 5070 Ti, which is not insubstantially better than the RTX 5070. This is definitively high-end territory, and you're getting it for just over £2,000, which isn't bad in the current (admittedly pretty poor) market.

Key specs: Ryzen 5 9600X | RTX 5070 Ti | 32 GB DDR5 | 2 TB SSD

Unless you're willing to pay a significant extra premium for an X3D chip, this is about as ideal an RTX 5080 gaming PC you can get. It's got a decent eight-core CPU and 32 GB of fast DDR5 RAM, so the RTX 5080 shouldn't be bottlenecked at all. And that means great high-end performance at 1440p and 4K, even if you don't enable Multi Frame Gen (MFG).

Key specs: Ryzen 7 9700X | RTX 5080 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 2 TB SSD

You might be able to find an RTX 5080 rig for a little cheaper than this, but it's unlikely you'll find one rocking a Ryzen 7 9800X3D alongside it for so cheap. That's the best CPU paired with the second-most-powerful RTX 50-series graphics card. And you're getting 32 GB of fast RAM here, too, though you'll probably want to upgrade that storage before long.

Key specs: Ryzen 7 9800X3D | RTX 5080 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD

Most RTX 5060 machines have yet to be hit by the heavy deals stick in the UK, but this one has a decent smattering of specs for a low price. It's a 75 W variant of the RTX 5060, which isn't exactly turbocharged, but with some DLSS help, it shouldn't have much trouble with a 1080p display, and the refresh rate is nice and speedy to make the most of Multi Frame Generation, too. Plus, a 1 TB SSD in a budget gaming laptop: Heavens be praised!

Lenovo gaming laptops often make for excellent machines, and this one looks to be no exception. It's got that familiar "take it to a meeting without laughter" chassis design, a 115 W RTX 5070, and a punchy 14-core (six Performance, eight Efficient) Intel chip, in combination with a generous amount of RAM and a decent-sized SSD. And the cherry on top? A speedy OLED display, all for an excellent price. I'd be more than happy to rock one of these as my main gaming machine, and so would you, I'd wager.

If you like your gaming laptops on the larger side, this Asus TUF 18-inch model is well worth a look. It's got a decently powerful eight-core, 16-thread AMD CPU, a 115 W RTX 5070, and a sizable screen that should show off your games with aplomb. Sure, it's only 1200p, but that's the sweet spot for keeping your frame rates high without too much DLSS help, and your digital adventures should look lovely regardless.

Key specs: RTX 5070 | Ryzen 7 260 | 18-inch | 1200p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD |

This HP lappy has a seriously chonky CPU, in combination with a 140 W RTX 5070 and 32 GB of RAM, making it a very well-balanced setup. Sure, it's only got a 1200p screen, but that means the GPU should have little issue pumping out plenty of frames, and it all comes wrapped in a very stylish chassis design, too.

We've been very impressed by the RTX 5080 version of this particular laptop for the value proposition it provides, and the RTX 5070 Ti variant is unlikely to be a slouch, either. While most RTX 50-series lappys are still priced into the stratosphere, this 16-inch machine is a fantastic price for the components you end up receiving. That's apart from the SSD, unfortunately, which is far too small. Still, sticking a 1 TB drive in a laptop is one of the easier hardware tasks you can perform, and the rest of the components are pretty stellar for the cash.

Key specs: RTX 5070 Ti | Core Ultra 7 255HX | 16-inch | 1600p | 240 Hz | 32 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD

RTX 5080 machines are still eye-wateringly expensive for the most part, but we're big fans of this Vector lappy, especially because of the price. It might not have the prettiest chassis, but it's as fast as a very, very fast thing for a fair bit cheaper than most of the competition—with a speedy 240 Hz IPS panel thrown into the bargain, too. That makes it a genuine value proposition in a laptop market filled with extremely pricey equivalents. A smart buy right now, no doubt, although I'd stick a touch more RAM in it for cheap to really bring it up to mega spec.

Intel's budget B570 is only a fraction slower than its last-gen range-topper Arc A770, so at this price, it's well worth considering. The drivers are in a much better state than they were at launch, though there are still a few games that cause problems. When it's all working fine, though, you're getting a lot of GPU for the money.

As the budget baby of AMD's last-gen RDNA 3 family, you might think the RX 7600 isn't worth considering. However, there are plenty of games where it's faster than the RTX 5050, and that's why it's still a valid choice now. It's not a very exciting graphics card, but it does its job well enough.

RX 7600 Price check: Laptops Direct £210.97 | Scan £239.99 | Overclockers £248.99

Although it can be really fast in some games, the B580 isn't as consistent as AMD and Nvidia's offerings. It's priced very competitively, though, so it's still worth considering, especially if you're on a tight budget and want more than 8 GB of VRAM.

Nvidia's newest member of the RTX 50-series family isn't going to win many awards. Roughly on par with an RTX 4060 (sometimes slower, sometimes faster), it's only worth considering if you must have DLSS 4. You're better off just paying a bit more and getting an RX 9060 XT or RTX 5060.

RTX 5050 price check: Scan £223.99 | Laptops Direct £229.97 | Overclockers £248.99

The RTX 5060 isn't massively faster than its predecessor, the RTX 4060, but having full support for DLSS 4 is a big plus. Stocks are decent, so you should have no problem picking one up at the MSRP, but you're better off saving more money and buying an RX 9060 XT or RTX 5060 Ti.

Nvidia's RTX 5060 has superior upscaling and frame generation technologies, but AMD's little RX 9060 XT has it beat on raw GPU power, including ray tracing. You're probably better off saving more money and buying a 16 GB version, though, for when games start demanding more memory.

RX 9060 XT 8 GB price check: Amazon £269.99 | Currys £269.99 | Scan £269.99 | Laptops Direct £299.97

The 16 GB version of the RX 9060 XT isn't quite as fast as the RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB card when ray tracing is involved, but outside of that, it's generally on par. You don't get as good an upscaling and frame generation system as with the Nvidia GPU, though. It is much cheaper, which counts for a lot these days.

RX 9060 XT 16 GB price check: Overclockers £329.99 | Amazon £339.98 | Currys £349.99 | Laptops Direct £369.97

The 8 GB version of the new RTX 5060 Ti is a lot cheaper than the 16 GB one, and while the extra VRAM will be useful in the future, it's certainly not worth paying £60 more for it. This is a great little GPU for the money.

RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB price check: Scan £329.99 | Amazon £334.99 | Currys £349 | Laptops Direct £352.97

While the specs suggest it should only be a little faster than the 4060 Ti, the use of super-speedy GDDR7 gives the RTX 5060 Ti a surprisingly healthy boost. Not worth buying if you already have an RTX 40-series card, but it's a decent upgrade if you have a much older GPU.

The RX 9070 is a really solid mid-range graphics card, provided you can get one at a sensible price. Fortunately, this deal is under MSRP, making it a very tempting deal. The only problem is that the RTX 5070 is cheaper still, and it's not that much slower than the 9070.

RX 9070 price check: Scan £514.99 | Amazon £548.97 | Laptops Direct £548.97

The RX 9070 XT is AMD's best graphics card in recent years, so naturally, it's hugely popular, resulting in high prices. However, this one is only a little over MSRP and seriously undercuts the RTX 5070 Ti. Although the 9070 XT isn't as strong when ray tracing is involved, it gives Nvidia's GPU a good run for the money everywhere else.

At its £729 MSRP, the RTX 5070 Ti is an expensive but superb graphics card, so it's an even better card when it's cheaper. If you think of it as being like an RTX 4080 with DLSS 4 support and great overclocking ability, you'll see why it's worth the money. The only problem is that the RX 9070 XT is a lot cheaper.

RTX 5070 Ti price check: Laptops Direct £757.97 | Amazon £743.94 | Currys £779.99 | Scan £799.99

At this price, it's below the launch MSRP, but it's arguably still not worth the money, as the RTX 5080 isn't that much faster than the RTX 4080 it replaces. You do get the full DLSS 4 suite, including Multi Frame Generation, but you might be better off waiting for a bigger price drop.

If you really must have the most powerful gaming graphics card money can buy, then you're going to need an awful lot of money. You'll need a high-end CPU and PSU to go with it, but if you're happy to spend this kind of money on a graphics card, it probably won't matter.

Traditionally, we'd recommend against buying a 24-inch gaming monitor. That's a pretty slim window through which to try to game. However, if you're really desperate for something incredibly affordable, this monitor's low price tag of just £70 is tough to ignore. But seriously, do check out a 27-inch option if you can spare a little more budget. It's a VA panel, too, rather than the TN you sometimes see at this price.

LG makes some of our favourite gaming monitors, and this 4K IPS panel is part of its UltraGear line, of which we are very much fans. The 144 Hz refresh rate might not be the fastest, but it's still plenty speedy for most, and otherwise, this panel has near-flawless specs for the cash. Okay, it's not an OLED, but it's one of the best IPS around.

What a difference a letter makes... especially when it comes to gaming monitors. The code names given to monitors are often impenetrable, but the difference between this MAG 321UP and the MAG321UPX is that this one has a 165 Hz refresh instead of 240 Hz. That's the only difference between this and the more expensive one. If you're not concerned about the refresh rate difference (and do you have the hardware to hit a matching 240 fps otherwise?), then this is where the smart OLED money is spent.

It's packed with features like the legendary ClearCast Noise-cancelling microphone, Dual Wireless connection, and a 20-hour-plus battery life, but the real rub here is getting a great-sounding SteelSeries wireless headset for a heavily discounted price.

This one's for all you low-profile lovers out there. The Falchion RX Low Profile is a smashing little keyboard—and I do say "little" because it uses a 60% layout, although thankfully it keeps the arrow keys. The keys you do get are fantastic, though: pre-lubed and smooth as butter. The board even comes with volume controls along the top.

This is the absolute best gaming keyboard overall, and right now it's at a cracking price. You're getting excellent typing feel, stellar gaming performance, sound dampening that actually works, and a build quality that stands well above most of the competition. All for one of the best prices we've seen this keyboard going for.

The Huntsman V2 gets all the Razer goodies into one desk-dominating package with Razer Chroma lighting, doubleshot PBT keycaps and Analog Optical mechanical switches. The magnetic wrist rest is removable, and it even features a handy dial in the top right corner that can be programmed in a multitude of ways. A big chunk of a fully-featured gaming keyboard, for a much-discounted price.

Perfect as a starter or low-budget option with a list of useful features like 6 programmable buttons, Lightsync RGB effects and a ton of customisation via Logitech's G Hub software, this mouse proves that you don't need to go fancy to get a great gaming peripheral.

This is a big discount on a tried and tested Logitech gaming mouse, with an astonishing amount of customisation potential. The G502 Hero uses the Hero 25K sensor for accuracy, 11 customisable buttons with onboard memory, and even comes with five removable weights to adjust the feel for even the pickiest of competitive gamers. The two main buttons use mechanical switch tensioning to make every click feel satisfying, and the programmable RGB lighting finishes off this comprehensive package of gaming mouse goodness.

The SteelSeries Aerox 3 might be lightweight with its honeycombed design, but it's certainly not light on features. With a 200-hour battery life, dual connectivity, and AquaBarrier protection to ensure water, dust and dirt resistance, this is a mouse designed to take some abuse and keep on trucking. And with a £50 discount, it's well worth considering next to the other options here.

This gaming controller remains our top budget pick for good reason, and this deal makes the case for it even sounder. In our review, James was particularly impressed by just how much GameSir cram into this affordable package, highlighting the controller's Hall Effect sticks and 2.4 GHz connectivity. It'd be nice if that package also included a USB-C charging cable, but still. The build quality can't stand shoulder to shoulder with Elite controllers, but for something both light in the hands and light on price, it's tough to argue against.

This is a nice saving on a great MSI motherboard that's perfect for a budget AM4 Ryzen gaming build. You don't get many USB ports on the rear panel and there are only two M.2 slots, but the wealth of PCIe slots means you can have more ports and storage with expansion cards.

Key specs: AM4 socket | 4x PCIe slots | 2x M.2 slots | 6x USB rear ports | WiFi 6E

There are cheaper Intel motherboards but this MSI is packed with lots of PCIe expansion and M.2 storage slots. It would be nicer to have more USB ports on the rear IO but for the money, you're getting a really solid motherboard for any 12th, 13th, or 14th Gen Intel processor.

Key specs: LGA1700 socket | 4x PCIe slots | 4x M.2 slots | 8x USB rear ports | WiFi 6E

Super pricey and the lack of 2.5G LAN ports is a bit disappointing, when the cheaper GE800 has them. But for sheer wireless performance, the RS700S is hard to beat (read our review). Best suited for those who don't really want a wired network or a router with in-your-face looks.
