I've been building PCs for 20 years, and some of my favorite tools and ties are way cheaper this Prime Day
Of course, I'm not building any PCs now, thanks to the RAM shortage...
I'm a huge fan of PC building. And perhaps this year has not been ... the best for that hobby, to put it mildly, but some of these Prime Day PC gaming deals are certainly helping.
So, if you find yourself the happy owner of a freshly scored piece of hardware, or maybe even an entire PC build, you're going to need more than just that. It's not all plug and play, at least not every time.
Here are all the best Prime Day PC gaming deals we've curated for you.
You'll need all sorts of bits and bobs, or, to be more specific, accessories. Over the years, I've built myself quite the kit of random accessories that either help you build a PC, maintain a PC, or just fix one of the annoying things about desktops (which aren't many, but hey, we fix what we can).
The return on investment with these things is tremendous, I'll say that. You buy them once and use them over and over and over (and over).
The best thing is that a lot of my favorite random drawer fillers are now on sale during Prime Day, although not for much longer. The deals are wrapping up, and we're in the home stretch, so pick them up while you can and make your life easier for years to come.
The deals
So, there you have it, a roundup of all my favorite PC-adjacent accessories. Some you'll use to build the PC, others to clean it. And some will just come in handy when you least expect it. I have all of this stuff at home, and trust me when I say that it's made my life easier on more than one occasion.
Grab them while savings still last, as Prime Day PC gaming deals are coming to an end later today.

Monica started her gaming journey playing Super Mario Bros on the SNES, but she quickly switched over to a PC and never looked back. These days, her gaming habits are all over the place, ranging from Pokémon and Spelunky 2 to World of Warcraft and Elden Ring. She built her first rig nearly two decades ago, and now, when she's not elbow-deep inside a PC case, she's probably getting paid to rant about the mess that is the GPU market. Outside of the endless battle between AMD and Nvidia, she writes about CPUs, gaming laptops, software, and peripherals. Her work has appeared in Digital Trends, TechRadar, Laptop Mag, SlashGear, Tom's Hardware, WePC, and more.
