Autonomous ErgoChair Ultra 2 review

Secretlab's new Atlas chair is cheaper, slimmer than the Titan Evo and I've been sitting comfortably in it for the past couple days

Secretlab's CEO is getting tough on copycat chairs and doesn't feel pressure to adopt AI: 'If we were owned by outside investors, you can bet that AI will be somehow jammed down our throats'

I was roasted by a physician for sitting weird but they gave me some great tips for healthier gaming

Corsair's new and supposedly affordable seat continues 'the move away from traditional gaming chair style'

From Ultramarines to Batman and Minecraft creepers, there's a dazzling selection of designs for our best gaming chair pick on discount in Secretlab's mega sale

Thunder X3 Lab-X review

Logitech G316 X (tactile) gaming keyboard review

With a huge 31% Prime Day discount, this Asus ROG gaming keyboard is a great deal for anyone wanting a fast and feature-rich button basher

This gaming keyboard is a class act, and it's waiting for you this Prime Day with its top hat askew and its monocle popped

Our pick for the best budget keyboard packs in magnetic switches and an 8K polling rate for only $32 this Prime Day

This lubed-up optical gaming keyboard has been my daily driver for two years, and it beats out boards three times its price at just $80

Melgeek Real81 review

I was genuinely surprised by the discounted price of Logitech's Genshin Impact-themed TKL gaming keyboard, thanks to a 56% price cut at Amazon

Thanks to a substantial 27% discount, this ROG Falchion gaming keyboard is a seriously tempting deal for anyone aiming for an all-white theme

MSI's new Strike Alloy has almost every gaming keyboard buzzword thrown at it, with TMR, 8k, and rapid trigger, and you can even use it underwater

The gaming mouse I use everyday weighs only 55 grams, enjoys a 100-hour battery, and can be yours for just $70

If you're looking for a performance-first gaming mouse for less, the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 is ready for you this Prime Day

For just $70, this MMO mouse keeps all of my macros within thumb's reach while also feeding my streaming career delusions of grandeur

This half price gaming mouse will feel right at home on the desk of anyone who prefers substance over style

You probably haven't heard of this gaming mouse, but it's just as high-quality as the big brand ones and still costs only $50 this Prime Day

Price drop: This gaming mouse is ridiculously light, capable and currently its lowest price ever for Prime Day

For as little as $32, this retro-styled gaming mouse enjoys up to 8K polling, a 100-hour battery, and a strong argument for charging docks

I've been using this vertical mouse from Razer ever since a physician told me off and it's currently at its lowest price ever on Amazon

It's all the gaming mouse you'll ever need: Razer's DeathAdder V3 Pro is now under $67 in the Prime Day sales

Amazon Prime Day gaming monitor deals

There's never been a better time to buy a gaming monitor, thanks to the Prime Day sales

This 32-inch IPS gaming monitor from MSI for under $350 is where it's at for affordable 4K gaming

It's fine, I didn't want a good credit score anyway. Who needs a 4K OLED gaming monitor with a nice discount? Not me, no sir

This Gigabyte gaming monitor is our best reviewed OLED of the year so far, and it just got even better with a $145 discount right before Amazon Prime Day

'Bananas, isn't it?': This monitor runs at 5K and 180 Hz for only $700 this Prime Day

Counter-Striking on this 400 Hz monitor over the Prime Day sales has had me in awe and it's now under $300

For barely over $200, one of these two 34-inch ultrawide panels from KTC is the budget gaming monitor I'd buy this Prime Day

This 320 Hz Alienware monitor that I reviewed is still one of the best Prime Day upgrades for anyone into competitive FPS games

An RTX 5070 gaming PC for under $1,350 is not what I expected to see after Prime Day

Steam Machine preorder emails are in the wild, and it finally feels real: Valve is actually gonna release this thing in 2026

One gaming laptop rules them all for price versus performance this Prime Day, and it's this 32 GB RTX 5070 Ti machine for $1,599

With nearly $1000 off, I'm surprised this RTX 5080 gaming laptop also includes 32 GB of RAM and 2 TB of storage

White hardware often comes at a premium, but this crisp and clean RTX 5070 gaming PC won't break the bank at $1,400 this Prime Day

Amazon Prime Day graphics card deals

Cheap graphics card deals this week

Update: This RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB is now down to $330, and it's still the only 8 GB graphics card I'd buy this Prime Day

Believe it or not, you can buy a graphics card for less than its MSRP—and you don't need to be an Amazon Prime member to bag one

I hoped for Prime Day graphics card deals, and actually Newegg has delivered near-MSRP deals on my favorite AMD GPU, the RX 9070

This smart lamp changed my gaming setup for the better and it's finally below $100 this Cyber Monday, just don't pick the wrong model

I didn't know I needed dedicated photography lights until this $44 set turned up, but now I'm a convert

I own over 10 smart lights, here are the three I'd actually buy in the early Amazon Prime Day sales

I may not need a full-blown Logitech streaming light but I'm mighty tempted now that it's 27% off in this early Prime Day deal

As if I needed any more RGB lights, this Govee x Evangelion light kit we gave a 91% is still $60 off for Cyber Monday

I find two key lights are much better than one for evenly lighting a stream or shoot, and here's a set from Neewer that's nearly buy one, get one free for Black Friday

Govee AI Sync Box Kit 2 review

Memory crisis heads to court: Class-action lawsuit calls Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron DRAM market 'oligopolists', alleging anticompetitive behavior

The RAM crisis comes for Apple: Mac and iPad prices jacked up by hundreds as company says 'We have never seen a component price increase this much, this quickly'

You can't have a gaming PC without DRAM, so here are the cheapest DDR4 and DDR5 memory kits I've found in the Prime Day sales

Grab 32 GB of Corsair DDR5-6000 RAM for $288 when bundled with this Gigabyte X870 AM5 motherboard—a decent saving when similar kits are $400+

SK hynix claims it will be able to triple its memory chip output by 2034, roughly 10 years sooner than first projected

'The thing that gives me hope is there is an enormous amount of capacity being built' - AMD's head of Ryzen and Radeon is pinning hopes of an end to the memory crisis on a supply ramp into 2028

Sticking two fingers up at the economy, Biwin's new Origin Code memory sticks are as extreme as you could imagine, with up to 256 GB of DDR5-8000 CL42

Cooler Master and G.Skill team up to bring you actively cooled DRAM kits, answering that incredibly distant call for even more expensive memory

Gigabyte borrows space industry and data center tech, along with all the relevant buzzwords, for its 40th anniversary motherboards

Twenty years ago, copper was king for PC enthusiasts so Asus has brought it back for its ROG anniversary. Well, sort of

Report says motherboard manufacturers are in crisis as builders aren't building new rigs as much anymore

Gigabyte's latest Intel motherboard is a little bit sideways, and it's all about reaching 10,400 MT/s with a megabucks DRAM kit

Looks like DDR3 motherboards are back on the menu, boys, though only to keep older PCs going a bit longer during the RAMpocalypse

Modder uses Claude AI to code new BIOS that gets obscure all P-core Intel Bartlett Lake CPUs running on a Z790 motherboard

If Gigabyte's original X870E X3D Wood motherboard didn't do it for you, how about this moody 'Dark Wood' respin?

Asus ROG Crosshair X870E Glacial review

Intel has published a whole host of security vulnerabilities, with mitigations rolling out, but attackers will need local access to actually do anything

The biggest upgrade I did last year was setting up a Wi-Fi 7 mesh network and with this huge Prime Day deal, you can too

'The most boring protocol on the internet is also, quietly, one of the most abusable': Doom has been broken down into 1,964 DNS text records and can be run via a PowerShell script

Asus says it's confident in its 'strong product security' after FCC foreign-made router ban, also *checks notes* fixes major security hole in its routers

The FCC says foreign routers 'pose an unacceptable risk' and now require special approval to be sold in the US

The best gaming routers 2026: the network data drivers I'd trust with my digital life

Out of all the new hardware that has passed through my hands in 2025, nothing has made an impact like a certain Wi-Fi 7 router has

The best PC upgrade I did this year was switching everything to Wi-Fi 7 and now you can too with these Cyber Monday deals

The internet as we know it emerged out of the Protocol Wars, which is as nerdy as it sounds but also somehow involved the Pentagon

If you have one of these old Asus routers, update its firmware as it may have a critical vulnerability that 'may allow remote attackers to gain unauthorized access'

This is by far the prettiest Phanteks PC case I've ever built in, and it's at its lowest ever price
