Cyber Monday gaming PC deals will be here before you know it, so it's important to get prepared. Black Friday and Cyber Monday can be a great opportunity for you to get into this typically expensive type of gaming for a little less than usual. Based on Prime Day in 2024, we could see some truly excellent prices this December, and we're here to guide you through the deals period so you can be sure you're getting a good deal.

Cyber Monday gaming PC deals follow straight on from Black Friday PC deals, and often, we see the same deals extended throughout both events. The good news is that we've already seen some excellent gaming PC deals in 2024, which bodes well for deals season. There's currently excellent value to be had in buying a pre-built gaming PC, especially compared to building from scratch. Particularly if you're buying your first-ever gaming PC, this is perfect for you, because you get solid parts for your money and a platform you can use to learn more about upgrading, if you want to.

We track the deals on gaming PCs and their parts throughout the year, and when we get to this time of year, we're laser-focused on finding you the best gaming hardware for the most reasonable prices. As we get further toward the event, we'll be keeping this page up to date with the latest buying advice. We've answered some FAQs down below, outlined what you should expect when this year's biggest digital sales come calling, and even saved a list of last year's best offers.

FAQ

When will Cyber Monday Gaming PC deals begin?

Cyber Monday 2024 falls on Monday, December 2. Black Friday and Cyber Monday fall particularly late in the month his year, meaning Cyber Monday is actually a December event, less than a month before Christmas. If I were you, though, I'd be keeping an eye on Prime Day sales in October, and then Black Friday offers. Black Friday in particular has begun blending into Cyber Monday every year, and the deals start earlier each time. Expect deals to start popping up in the middle of November.

Where will the best Cyber Monday gaming PC deals be?

We generally find that Amazon, being the world's largest online retailer, tends to have a good selection of Cyber Monday gaming PC deals to choose from, with Dell holding some of the deeper discounts on its line of Alienware PCs as well. That's not to count out the likes of Newegg and eBuyer, which have offered some stellar savings on prebuilt systems in the past, too. Here are some important retailers to keep an eye on during the week of Black Friday and into Cyber Monday.

US:

Amazon:
Some of the fairest prices on prebuilt gaming PCs online
Dell: A handful of deals on the Alienware Aurora range
Best Buy: Competitive rates on all major PC brands
Walmart: Cheap prices on entry-level PC configurations
Newegg: Great savings on prebuilt gaming rigs

UK:

Amazon:
Deals and low rates on major gaming PC brands
Currys: Few deals, but offers a wide variety of prebuilt systems
eBuyer: Save on select systems and brands
Overclockers UK: Mostly stocks high-end configurations at good prices
Very: Regular discounts available on PC Specialist machines

Should I wait until Cyber Monday to buy a gaming PC?

Given that Cyber Monday happens right after Black Friday, I personally wouldn't recommend waiting specifically for Cyber Monday gaming PC deals. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are competitive for shoppers, and we'd always bet on the early birds to catch the worms. Weirdly, some of the best deals last year started before the Friday, so keep your eyes peeled from the 20th onwards.

Cyber Monday gaming PC deals: What to expect

Cyber Monday PC deals should be quite promising in 2024. After the lackluster demand for gaming PCs and parts in 2024, it feels like manufacturers have been rolling up their sleeves this year to create interest in upgrading to new-generation motherboards. DDR5 RAM has been more alluring than ever, thanks to a massive range of processors on the shelves that support it, and pre-built gaming PCs are such great value as well.

Since we saw similar things during July's Prime Day event, we'd expect RTX 4060 gaming PCs with DDR5 RAM inside them to cost around $800 during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. This should, in theory, bring the mid-rangers like RTX 4070 / AMD Radeon RX 7800XT PCs down to the $1,200 level and below, especially since Nvidia's "Super" range supplies more options too. If you're going to go for an enthusiast-level PC, make sure you're getting great parts for the money.

CPUs are expected to be super cheap this November and December since Intel and AMD both have three generations of DDR5 chips available and for both sides, they function on the same motherboards. That gives people so many options to choose from, and with each brand essentially competing with itself, there are bound to be some great prices out there.

SSDs and RAM will hopefully see some discounts too, especially since prices of both have remained pretty stubborn this year. DDR5 is definitely more affordable than it's been, but the true value might be in buying a whole rig if you're yet to make the leap to the DDR5 age.

For some expected prices for pre-built systems, check out the handy reference points below.

Save £100 - Here's a chance to save £100 and get an RTX 4070 Ti, and a 12th Gen Intel Core i7. Annoyingly, this has DDR4 in it, which is a shame since the rig itself should be DDR5 compatible. Nonetheless, this isn't a bad deal.

Save £98 - Normally, we wouldn't advise paying the same price for an RTX 3060 as you would for an RTX 4060, but since this one has 12GB VRAM and is down to a record low, it's worth considering over other entry-level cards.

Ever since playing Journey at the age of 15, I’ve been desperate to cover video games for a living. After graduating from Edinburgh Napier University with a degree in Journalism, I contributed to the Scottish Games Network and completed an Editorial Internship over at Expert Reviews. Besides that, I’ve been managing my own YouTube channel and Podcast for the last 7 years. It’s been a long road, but all that experience somehow landed me a dream job covering gaming hardware. I’m a self-confessing PlayStation fanboy, but my experience covering the larger business and developer side of the whole industry has given me a strong knowledge of all platforms. When I’m not testing out every peripheral I can get my hands on, I’m probably either playing tennis or dissecting game design for an upcoming video essay. Now, I better stop myself here before I get talking about my favourite games like HUNT: Showdown, Dishonored, and Towerfall Ascension. Location: UK Remote
