Cyber Monday gaming PC deals 2024: The last few available deals

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.

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.

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

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.
