Amazon Prime Day 2024 is officially over, but in what is becoming a pattern, the behemoth online retailer is having another go at it in October this year, in the form of Amazon Big Deal Days. It's a repeat of last year, with the crucial difference being that, similar to July's main Prime Day, Amazon Big Deal Days will run a bonkers six days.

Yes, six days of deals. OK with that? I'm not, but my opinion doesn't count. Amazon Big Deal Days will kick off at midnight on Tuesday, October 8 and run til the very end of Sunday, October 13. 

As usual, Amazon sales are generally pretty good for gaming peripherals like mice, keyboards, headsets and controllers. Monitors can be had for a steal, but we generally find—in Australia, at least—that Amazon isn't particularly good for hardware components. Nevertheless, we'll be keeping an eye out for deals across all PC gaming categories when the sale launches next month, so make sure you check back in.

Other retailers may take advantage of Amazon's own sale to get their own deals events kickstarted. These are some of the retailers we'll be keeping an eye on:
