The Amazon Prime Day deals clock is ticking down, but that doesn't mean there aren't still bargains to be had. We've spent the last few days hunting high and low to find the best deals on gaming laptops, monitors, SSDs, and everything else that makes us PC gamers happy. 

There haven't been a whole lot of individual components deals, but the changing of the current-gen guard might herald some movement on that front around Black Friday next month—Prime Day normally happens in the summer, but was pushed back this year, which probably affected the offerings. We have found some nice deals anyway, though. Here are the best of them that remain.

Asus TUF Gaming A15 | RTX 2060 | $999.99 $799.99 at Best Buy

Asus TUF Gaming A15 | RTX 2060 | $999.99 $799.99 at Best Buy
This is a more affordable version of the model we reviewed earlier this year. It is a fast laptop out of the box with a potent CPU and GPU combo, but we reckon you might want to pick up a second 8GB of RAM, later on, to bump it up a touch.

Corsair K70 RGB low profile with Cherry MX Speed switches | $̶1̶5̶0̶ $89.99 at Best Buy
The K70 is a great mechanical keyboard. We've used and recommended it for years. This low profile version is a good board, and 90 bucks is a good price for it.

Dell 32-inch 1440p FreeSync | $449.99 $349.99 at Dell

Dell 32-inch 1440p FreeSync | $449.99 $349.99 at Dell
Dell make lovely monitors, and this 165Hz 1440p panel will make for a great big-screen gaming display. At 32-inches that curve will put you right at the heart of the action and the pixel pitch will still make for a sharp image. The 165Hz refresh is killer though, especially with the FreeSync options.

SK Hynix Gold S31 1TB SATA SSD | $159.99 $83.99 at Amazon
The S31's 560 MB/s read speeds max out SATA performance, making this a budget SSD that doesn't sacrifice speed. The cheapest 1TB SATA drive you'd actually want to buy right now.

Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB DDR 3600 | $137.99  $119.99 at Newegg
This speedy DDR4-3600 RAM kit pairs well with the latest AMD Ryzen and Intel's processors. While the CAS latency of 18 isn't too exciting, this kit will still deliver 32GB of RAM for a cent under $120. That's a whole lot of Corsair memory.

When does Prime Day end?

The official end point for Prime Day is 11:59pm PT on October 14, 2020. That's 3am ET on October 15, incidentally. 

Prime Day now takes place across two days, and this year it fell on October 13 and October 14, 2020. That means today, at one minute to midnight Pacific Time, all deals will be over until next year, so best get moving if you want to pick up a bargain. Prime Day 2021 may fall earlier in the calendar year, however, as it has done in previous years.

There's always Black Friday if you miss out on anything today, don't forget.
