It’s time to wade into the thick of it once again. Amazon has just kicked off its next major Prime event, Big Deal Days, running from October 6–7. Though that’s not the only discount derby in town. We’re seeing discounts on components, peripherals, monitors, chairs and more across all the major tech retailers.
I am personally curating the deals on this page. I’ve been testing hardware for about ten years now, and over that time I’ve covered many sales events just like this one. So, I know what to look for, and I also get it when people say, ‘hey, that’s not a deal, it was X% cheaper last year!’ I know, I was there.
Prices are high right now—it sucks—but that’s all the more reason to try to save some money on the stuff you really need.
My personal Prime Day picks
RX 9070 GRE | 12 GB: $549.99
The RX 9070 GRE is the only graphics card still surviving at MSRP. Sure, the MSRP is a bit higher than it should be, but it’s nowhere near as inflated as pretty much every other graphics card on the planet. I’d love to see this sub-MSRP this October Prime Day, but I’ve just gone through our graphics card deals hub, and I’m just happy the GRE is still around at this price, to say the least.
Key specs: 3072 shaders | 2920 MHz boost | 12 GB GDDR6
RX 9070 GRE price check: Amazon $569.99 | Walmart $599.99 | Newegg $569.99View Deal
Omen 35L | RTX 5080 | 9800X3D: was $4999.99 now $2799.99
I wish I could take the credit for finding this one, as it’s genuinely a mega deal by today’s standards. It’s about a thousand bucks more than the cost of an RTX 5080 alone, yet comes with around $1,500 bucks of other expensive stuff, like a 2 TB SSD and 32 GB of RAM.
Key specs: Ryzen 7 9800X3D | RTX 5080 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 2 TB SSDView Deal
MPG A1000GS PCIE5 II: was $169.99 now $94.99
I am quite partial to a power supply. They feel good to hold but more importantly they ensure good functioning of a gaming PC. This MSI one has been reviewed by someone we’ve trusted with our own power supply reviews in the past, Aris from Cybenetics, who called it a “good PSU”. It’s only built for Nvidia GPUs, as it has just three shared 8-pin CPU/GPU connectors. Use code FTTF7873 for the full discount.

First day on the blog.
Jacob here. I’ve done a few too many of these sales events at this point. Moreover, I’ve tested a whole lot of hardware over my many years in this job. So, hey, hopefully I can pick out something you like.
This year’s second Prime Day (Big Deal Days or whatever) doesn’t kick off until tomorrow, October 6; however, every other major tech retailer has already gone live with their respective deals. So, without further ado.
Before our dear second Jacob departed on holiday, he happened upon one of the best gaming PC deals we’ve seen in a long while.
It features an RTX 5080, Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 32 GB of RAM, and a 2 TB SSD for $2,800. By my calculations, the graphics card alone costs $1,600 (thanks, memory crisis), which leaves less than half that princely sum for the other components. Since RAM and storage cost an absolute fortune these days, it’s resolutely a good deal compared to building a PC yourself.
It’s a gaming PC we’ve reviewed and recommended at various points in time.
Omen 35L | RTX 5080 | 9800X3D: was $4999.99 now $2799.99
I didn’t expect to see an RTX 5080 alongside a Ryzen 7 9800X3D for this kind of price again, given the state of the current market. But here we are, and I’m certainly not complaining. There’s no slack in the other specs, either, given you’re getting 2 TB of storage and a full 32 GB of fast DDR5 memory.
