Black Friday a few weeks away now, but realistically you'll start to see the Black Friday gaming PC deals starting to ramp up from the very start of what will inevitably become Black November. We've already had Amazon's October Prime Day attempting to encourage you to part with some cash ahead of the big end of year sales events of Black Friday and Christmas, and the trend of trying to get folk to spend earlier isn't going to go away.

We've been curating the best gaming PC deals all year long to make sure that we know how the prices have been trending in 2024 so that we can help you make the best pick when it comes to buying your next rig. What we're going to be doing in the run up to Black Friday is keeping tabs on what goes in and out of stock, and what is happening to prices in advance of the new generation of gaming PCs that is set to land in the new year, and what you should be aiming to pay when it comes to the best discounts.

The new Nvidia GeForce and AMD Radeon GPUs are expected to launch in the new year, which ought to have a direct impact on the prices of the existing gaming PCs that retailers are going to want to shift ahead of that momentous event.

👉We're curating all the best pre-Black Friday PC gaming deals right now👈

The current RTX 40-series and RX 7000-series graphics cards are still totally relevant for prime gaming performance, and the last couple of generations of processors will still see you right, too. That should mean PCs which might have been on the shelves a while, and are marked for stock shifting, will still deliver great gaming frame rates and should see some hefty discounts. 

Where we might have only expected RTX 4060-based machines below the $1,000 mark, from what we've seen over October's Prime Day we should also see RTX 4060 Ti and maybe, just maybe there might be an RTX 4070 gaming PC here or there.

When is Black Friday 2024?

Black Friday 2024 is hitting November 29, this year, though you can expect to see discounts starting around the start of November as retailers put effort into making sure that people part with their cash as early as they can encourage it.

The main event, however, will be around that Thanksgiving Thursday and into Black Friday itself, with deals lasting throughout the weekend, and then into Cyber Monday and further on into Cyber Week. Essentially, it's not just one day, there will be shops fighting for your attention all around Black Friday itself.

We're not listing this for its $1 discount—that would be ridiculous—but because $418 is just a stellar price for a gaming PC, discount or not. You can game on this machine to a certain extent—the integrated Vega GPU on the Ryzen chip will certainly support 720p gaming at lower settings. But we're listing it here as a good base from which to add your own graphics card for a quick new gaming PC on a tight budget. The AMD CPU is a good six-core, 12-thread job, and the 16 GB RAM will run everything you need.

The Ryzen 5 5600G's Vega GPU isn't going to get you playing the latest games at high resolutions, but for some lite 720p gaming it should do fine. As with the NXS rig above, the main goals is to have a base that you can upgrade from with a proper discrete GPU. If you have a slightly bigger budget and can afford this one rather than the NXS, you'll have the peace of mind of 1 TB SSD storage, too, which is very rare at this price point and will be much more useful than the above build's 512 GB.

$849.99 $664.78 at Newegg (save $185.21)
In the lead-up to the Nvidia 50-series, we're seeing some seriously cheap and cheerful gaming PCs crop up, and this is one of them. The 5600X and 4060 combo is fairly entry-level, but more than enough for some 1080p or 1440p gaming, and getting this for well south of $700 is fantastic. The 1 TB SSD is great for starters, too, though you might want to upgrade to 32 GB RAM down the line. Thankfully, though, that shouldn't be too expensive as it's DDR4 RAM.

$1,199 $779.99 at Newegg (save $419.01)
The Yumi is a bit of a classic when it comes to gaming PC deals, as it's always there or thereabouts. At the moment this is the cheapest RTX 4060-based PC we've found, and comes with a supporting spec that is absolutely solid, even if it's not the latest and greatest. The combination of DDR4 RAM and a previous-gen Ryzen 5 might not be top-end, but this machine will still deliver great performance for under a grand.

This ABS rig with an RTX 4060 is about the cheapest you'll find for something with 32 GB RAM and a relative new CPU. On their own, an extra 16 GB RAM or a slight CPU upgrade might not be worth the $100 extra for a budget build, but together? In combination, these upgrades should ensure your PC has the grunt even for some moderate productivity tasks, giving you that extra peace of mind.

This is a sub-$1,000 gaming PC and it has an RTX 4060 Ti, need I say more? It's a great price for a rig with this entry-level/midrange graphics card, and it even comes with speedy DDR5 RAM. Just be aware that the "F" in the name means it lacks integrated graphics, so if your 4060 Ti ever goes kaput, you'll have no video-out.

$1,299.99 $999.99 at Best Buy (save $300)
This Thermaltake build is I think the best all-rounder I've seen for $1,000. That's primarily because it features the 20-cores (8x P-Core) Intel Core i7 14700F. That's a big step-up from the other RTX 4060 Ti builds you see a little cheaper than this, such as ones with a Core i5 13400F or 14400F. Which likely won't benefit you massively for gaming, but for other things such as productivity tasks, it'll be a real boon. Oh, and it's all housed in a lovely white Thermaltake case wit the company's own cooling, power supply, and so on.

$1,599 $1,079.99 at Newegg (save $519.01)
RTX 4070 machines can vary in price and specification quite significantly, but here you're getting that great 1440p GPU (with even some 4K credentials thanks to DLSS 3), a nice and speedy Core i5 paired with some good DDR5 RAM, and a 1 TB SSD. For close to a thousand bucks, that's a really great selection of hardware that makes it a great gaming rig for more like budget prices. It doesn't have the 4070 Super might of the Skytech build above, but it has a more up-to-date CPU and RAM.

Price change: 
ABS Cyclone Aqua | Core i5 13400F | RTX 4070 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD | $1,399.99$1,159.99 at Newegg (save $240)

The Core i5 13400F might be on the lower end of Intel's range, but don't be fooled: it's still an excellent gaming chip, and plenty fast. 32 GB of DDR5-6000 is great to see at this low price, alongside the venerable RTX 4070 (original flavor) that still delivers excellent mid-range performance. Cheap this system may be, but it's got all the right components in all the right places. It also comes with your choice of Star Wars Outlaws or Assassin's Creed Shadows to test out that beefy GPU.

Yeyian has a stellar deal on an RTX 4070 Super machine here. We've seen slightly cheaper versions on sale, but this one at least does have proper DDR5 memory, making the motherboard at least nominally upgradeable to a more modern spec. It does make a bit of an odd combo with the Core i5 here, though for straightforward gaming performance, it shouldn't prove any issue and deliver high frame rates.

$1,599.99 $1,319.99 at Newegg (save $280 with code NEPDYA72)
This is a great option for those of you looking for a powerful build with an AMD GPU that doesn't break the bank. The great thing about the 7800 XT is that you're getting 16 GB of VRAM for a reasonable price. It performs somewhere between the RTX 4070 and 4070 Super, too, so it'll do just fine for 1440p and even some 4K gaming.

This Skytech RTX 4070 Super build costs more than the Yeyian Tanto 4070 Super build above, but for that extra cost you're getting a slightly better CPU and an extra 16 GB of (admittedly slower) RAM. Plus, you get that lovely white chassis.

This ABS build hits the sweet spot in high-end price-to-performance. The RTX 4070 Super is a solid graphics card that can handle pretty much anything you throw at it, and it's running alongside some fast RAM and a powerful CPU, here. 32 GB of DDR5-6000 RAM is particularly great at this price point, and the 20-core (8 P-Core) current-gen i7 rounds out the build nicely. A solid all-rounder with a very nice discount.

This Lenovo rig is about as cheap as you're going to be able to find an RTX 4070 Ti Super PC. The 4070 Ti Super is up there with the best of them, so for just over $1,600 this build's a steal. The only downside is the RAM is pretty slow. The impact that should have on gaming performance isn't too massive, but you might want to consider upgrading it down the line if you spot a good deal on some speedy DDR5 RAM.

This ABS machine, in addition to housing the stellar RTX 4070 Ti Super, has 32 GB of speedy RAM, a high-end CPU, and heaps of RGB. In other words, all the prospective high-end gamer should need. It only has a 1 TB SSD, but that's one of the easiest components to upgrade down the line.

With this rig, for less than $2,000 you're getting the most powerful graphics card barring the usually overkill RTX 4090, a CPU that's perfectly suitable for gaming, 32 GB of fast DDR5 RAM, and even a 1,000 W power supply. It should handle any game you throw on-screen with ease. The only real sacrifice is the 1 TB of storage, but that'll be easy to upgrade down the line. There's little not to love.

With this ABS RTX 4080 Super build, you're getting an Intel Core i9 14900KF for some of the best productivity performance barring the latest high-end 9000-series chips. In other words, while the above build is probably a better choice just for gaming, if content creation or productivity work is a consideration, this ABS rig is probably the one to go for. Just ensure you install the latest microcode BIOS to prevent instability issues.

This build is everything a gamer might want. The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the best gaming CPU out right now and in this build it's paired with what is the most powerful graphics card barring the ridiculously expensive RTX 4090. Throw in a whopping 64 GB of DDR5 RAM and this Skytech build has more than enough to demolish any game in its path. It even has 2 TB of storage, so you shouldn't go running out of space for game installs any time soon.

You might still have to pay a pretty penny, but what you're getting here is the fastest gaming GPU you can currently buy in conjunction with a mega-fast i9 13900K and a healthy dose of DDR5. 2 TB of storage, too, which should give you plenty of room for a load of games and files. Deciding between this one and the Skytech Azure probably comes down to whether you want a CPU purely for gaming or for productivity, too. And whether you mind having to install a microcode update to keep this i9 build stable.

Yes, this six-core, 12-thread CPU is now two generations old but for the money, you really can't complain. Well, a bit more RAM would have been nice, but you're not going to get many gaming PCs with an RTX 4060 and a 12th Gen i5 for less than £800. The PSU is only rated to 500W, however, so if you're planning on using this as a base to upgrade in the future, you might need a better supply unit for a top-end GPU.

RTX 4060 Ti builds can hit the sweet spot of entry-level price and mid-range performance, depending on the game in question, and this is certainly the case with this build from Scan. The CPU is a couple of generations old and you only get 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, but for well shy of £900 you can't go wrong with this rig, provided 1080p or 1440p gaming is your main focus, and not AAA 4K gaming or heavy productivity.

The six-core, 12-thread CPU may be last-gen, and not the fastest one that AMD ever made, but this is still a very good deal for a powerful RTX 4070 machine. It sports dual channel DDR4-3600, which is rare to see in a simple pre-built, and you get a 1 TB SSD to load up with games.

This Horizon PC from CCL is pretty damn cheap for a solid all-round RTX 4070 Super gaming PC, even if its CPU and RAM is decidedly previous-gen. The 5700X and 32 GB DDR4 combo should be more than enough to churn out frames in-game, and it should even be a decent enough performer for some moderate productivity tasks. Throw in 2 TB of storage and you have a fantastic deal.

The 7700X is a very speedy, if slightly hot running CPU, and here it gets a decent dose of DDR5 and an RTX 4070 Super to make friends with. That makes it an excellent upper mid-range machine at a good price with plenty of upgradeability, although I'd start off with sticking an extra 16 GB of RAM in when you get the chance.

You're probably thinking that this isn't much of a good deal but when RTX 4090 cards cost £2,000 on average, it looks a whole lot better. You're getting a very solid gaming CPU, the best gaming GPU, lots of speedy dual-channel RAM, and plenty of NVMe storage. This is about as fast a gaming machine as you can get your hands on, and even at £3,000, this is still a monster of a PC at a good price.

What should I look for in a Black Friday gaming PC deal?

With all the system builders fighting between them for your cash, there are likely to be some tasty discounts all the way up and down the performance ladder. From high-end RTX 4090 systems all the way down to RTX 4060 machines for less than $900.

System builders such as iBuypower also have their own prebuilt systems that are ready to roll out of the shop quicker than custom designs. These iBuypower RDY systems can be with you in a matter of days, when other machines might take weeks, or even months to arrive. Basically, be aware that a custom machine may not arrive in time for Christmas.

Machines with last-gen GPUs just aren't as tempting as they were last year, either. At least not for the same money. All this last-gen kit doesn't just miraculously disappear though, retailers and system builders need to sell it to make some money back. And while there's nothing wrong with machines built around Zen 2, Intel 11th and 12th Gen CPUs, and Nvidia RTX 3080s if the price is right, make sure you don't pay over the odds being blinded by the rest of the spec.

As ever when hunting for bargains, focus on what you need, and don't be swayed to grab a bargain just because something's cheap.

Will prices drop any lower?

There are always reasons to hold off on making a new purchase whenever you are thinking about making one. Whether it's the potential for a new generation of techie goodness on the horizon—either cutting prices on existing models or delivering tangible higher performance—or because there might be an imminent sale like Black Friday looming.

When picking out gaming PC deals we take all of this into consideration, and where we think prices on something might significantly drop on the big day itself we simply won't recommend it. But all of the products here we either believe won't significantly drop much further in terms of their pricing, even over Cyber Monday or Cyber Week, or are just good deals that we wouldn't hesitate recommending if you wanted to make a purchase.

Many retailers have already dropped prices as low as they'll go for the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales, and the likes of Newegg and Best Buy are offering their own kinds of price guarantees to give you some confidence in their current discounts.

What does price change mean?

We've added a new "price change" qualifier to all our individual deals, making it easy to see whether a price has risen or lowered on an ongoing deal at a glance. It's important to note that any deal in this guide (even if it's slightly risen in price) is still one of our top picks, as we only show you deals that are the best price you can find on this product right now.

Dave has been gaming since the days of Zaxxon and Lady Bug on the Colecovision, and code books for the Commodore Vic 20 (Death Race 2000!). He built his first gaming PC at the tender age of 16, and finally finished bug-fixing the Cyrix-based system around a year later. When he dropped it out of the window. He first started writing for Official PlayStation Magazine and Xbox World many decades ago, then moved onto PC Format full-time, then PC Gamer, TechRadar, and T3 among others. Now he's back, writing about the nightmarish graphics card market, CPUs with more cores than sense, gaming laptops hotter than the sun, and SSDs more capacious than a Cybertruck.
