We might not have arrived at the actual Friday of Black Friday just yet, but, being just a few days out, retailers are already churning out their Black Friday sales. Even before this, we saw the Black Friday gaming PC deals ramp up from the very start of what has almost inevitably become Black November. We've also had Amazon's October Prime Day encouraging us 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. Which, to be honest, isn't all that bad considering the deals we're seeing right now are pretty wonderful.
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've been 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. And now that these low prices are rolling in, we're fingers on buzzers.
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.
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 means some PCs which might have been on the shelves a while, and are marked for stock shifting, will still deliver great gaming frame rates, and we're already seeing some hefty discounts.
Where we might have only expected RTX 4060-based machines below the $1,000 mark, from just like over October's Prime Day we're seeing RTX 4060 Ti PCs and maybe, just maybe, we might see an RTX 4070 gaming PC here or there.

Ipason gaming PC | Ryzen 5 5600G | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $849 $429 at Newegg (save $420)
Ignore the over-enthusiastic promised discount from the laughable $850 sticker price, this is a really good starter PC. The Ryzen 5 5600G's Vega GPU isn't going to get you playing the latest games at high resolutions on its own, but for some lite 720p gaming it should do fine. The main goal here, though, is to have a base that you can upgrade from with a proper discrete GPU down the line. Slap an RTX 4060 or RTX 4060 Ti in there for well under $400 and you've got a fine gaming PC without spending a fortune and you just need a screwdriver and the will to make it happen.

iBuypower Scale | Core i5 14400F | Nvidia RTX 4060 | 16 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSD | $949.99 $699.99 at Best Buy (save $250)
It's difficult to imagine finding more gaming PC for $700 than this one right now. The Intel Core i5 14400F might not be much of an upgrade on its predecessor, but it's still a plenty-fast little gaming chip. Plus, that RTX 4060 is capable of excellent 1080p gaming performance, and even a dash of 1440p with DLSS 3 help and some settings adjustments. You get a proper 1 TB speedy storage drive and a healthy dose of DDR5 in the mix, too, and even a keyboard and mouse!

ABS Cyclone Aqua | Core i5 13400F | Nvidia RTX 4060 | 32 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $999.99 $799.99 at Newegg (save $200)
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. $100 is, admittedly, a fair bop for an extra 16 GB of memory compared to the iBuyPower rig above, but if you don't want to go poking around inside your rig to upgrade your RAM, it might be worth it, even if it is DDR4 rather than DDR5.

MXZ gaming PC | Ryzen 5 5600X | Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $1,399 $889 at Newegg (save $510)
This is an RX 4060 Ti rig for under $900, what more needs to be said? Well, probably the caveat that it comes with a now somewhat aging CPU and only 16 GB of DDR4 RAM. But provided you're not cranking up the background resources, that CPU and RAM should be able to power the 4060 Ti perfectly well for gaming, making for a great entry-level 1080p rig that can even do some 1440p gaming in most games if you fiddle with your settings.

MSI Codex R2 | Core i5 14400F | Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti | 16 GB DDR5| 1 TB SSD | $1,199.99 $999.99 at Amazon (save $200)
While the MXZ RTX 4060 Ti build above is great if you're on a strict budget, if you can spare an extra $100, this MSI one is well worth it. That's primarily because it has a more recent (and more powerful) CPU, as well as DDR5 RAM which should make for a better upgrade down the line. It's an ideal entry-level rig for this reason.

Yeyian Tanto | Intel Core i5 13400F | RTX 4070 | 16 GB DDR5-5600 | 1 TB SSD | $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.

CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme | Ryzen 7 8700F | AMD RX 7800 XT | 32 GB DDR5 | 2 TB SSD | $1,399 $1,199 at Walmart (save $200)
This PC comes with a bunch of caveats, but for this price it's difficult to say no. That's because it features an RX 7800 XT (between RTX 4070 and 4070 Super performance), 32 GB RAM, and 2 TB storage. However, the 8700F processor it comes with isn't the best—only 16 MB cache, which isn't great for gaming compared to, say, a 7600X—so bear in mind you'll probably want to upgrade this down the line. It's socket AM5, though, so doing so should be a breeze.

Yeyian Tanto | Intel Core i5 13400F | RTX 4070 Super | 16 GB DDR5-5600 | 1 TB SSD | $1,599.99 $1,199.99 at Newegg (save $400)
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.

Skytech Shiva | Core i5 14400F | RTX 4070 Super | 32 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSD | $1699.99 $1,299.99 at Newegg (save $400)
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.
Price watch: NEW DEAL!
CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme | Ryzen 7 7800X3D | Nvidia RTX 4070 Super | 32 GB DDR5 | 2 TB SSD | $1,699.99 $1,429.99 at Best Buy (save $270)
While there are cheaper RTX 4070 Super gaming PCs on this list, this is probably the best overall proposition. In fact, it's probably the best proposition overall right now, out of any gaming PC, for most gamers. That's because the 4070 Super here is combined not only with 2 TB storage but also one of the best gaming CPUs on the market, 32 GB DDR5 RAM, all housed in a lovely chassis to boot.

Lenovo Legion Tower 5i | Core i7 14700F | Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti Super | 32 GB DDR5-5600 | 1 TB SSD | $2,149 $1,599 at B&H Photo (save $550)
This is the cheapest RTX decent 4070 Ti Super build we've come across, and it barely sacrifices anything for its low price tag—just its somewhat lacklustre storage, but that can be added to easily. For reference the RTX 4070 Ti Super is almost in 4080 Super performance territory. It's closer to that than the RTX 4070 Super, anyway. So you're getting a really high-end rig, here, for just under $1,600. Lovely.

ABS Tempest Aqua | Core i7 14700F | RTX 4070 Ti Super | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD | $1,999.99 $1,749.99 at Newegg (save $250)
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. It also has a more powerful CPU than the other ABS build above. 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.

Alienware Aurora R16 | Core i9 14900F | Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti Super | 1 TB SSD | $2,399.99 $1,799.99 at Dell (save $600)
Dell's been surprising us lately with some pretty fantastic deals on its Alienware gaming PCs. This one in particular sits on our list because of that beefy Core i9 CPU. Combined with an RTX 4070 Ti Super and 32 GB of DDR5 RAM, you have a solid all-round system for both high-end gaming and productivity. Just keep in mind that upgrading stuff might be a little more difficult down the line than with a custom PC thanks to all the proprietary parts.

HP Omen 45L | Core i7 14700K | Nvidia RTX 4080 Super | 16 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSD | $2,999.99 $2,099.99 at HP (save $900)
This gaming PC deal is for those of you who want to nab a PC with a really high-end graphics card at a good price. If you can spare a little extra cash or wait for a better deal, it might be better to opt for a rig with more storage and RAM, but these things can be upgraded easily anyway, and for $2,100 it's hard to say no to a Core i7 and RTX 4080 Super build.

Yeyian Gaming PC | Ryzen 7 7800X3D | AMD RX 7900 XTX | 32 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSD | $2,179 at Amazon
This Yeyian gaming PC is for those of you looking for a high-end all-AMD gaming PC. The RX 7900 XTX is about as powerful as Nvidia's best offering, the RTX 4080 Super, and it has more VRAM to boot, which is great for things like content creation. The 7800X3D processor was our previous best pick for gaming, too, and it's still fantastic thanks to heaps of cash. The only downsides to this rig, really, are the 7900 XTX's ray tracing performance compared to the 4080 Super and its 1 TB of storage. I'd be slapping another 1 TB in there ASAP

CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme | Core i9-14900KF | Nvidia RTX 4080 Super | 64 GB DDR5 RAM | 4 TB SSD | $2,699.99 $2,329.99 at B&H Photo (save $370)
If you're looking for a high-end all-rounder, this CyberPowerPC build is where it's at. We're talking an RTX 4080 Super, a Core i9-14900KF (which you'll want to ensure has the latest BIOS on to prevent any voltage issues), and more RAM and storage than you'll know what to do with. This is very much a gaming PC for those who want peace of mind knowing their PC can handle just about anything, even beyond gaming and in the realm of productivity and content creation. And you're getting that for less than $2,350. Noice.

Alienware Aurora R16 | Core i9 14900KF | Nvidia RTX 4090 | 64 GB DDR5-5200 | 2 TB SSD | $3,999.9 $2,999.99 at Dell (save $1,000)
We're not massive fans of Alienware PCs when they're at full price, but Dell sure does like a deal, and when it's knocking $1,000 off that sticker price we're going to take notice. That makes this the most cost-effective RTX 4090 gaming PC you can buy today, and it comes fully kitted out to deal with pretty much everything you could throw at it.
Price watch: ➖
Yeyian Odachi | Core i9-14900KF | Nvidia RTX 4090 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 2 TB SSD | $3,599.99 $3,299.99 at Newegg (save $300)
This Yeyian build is perfect for those of you willing to spend an arm and a leg on the best money can buy who also don't want to go for an Alienware machine like the one above. This build, at least, should have standard parts that can be swapped around and upgraded easily. Not that you'll want to do that for some time, given the 14900KF and RTX 4090 combo. It even comes with a Platinum PSU, so no worries on the power front. Lovely.

ADMI Gaming PC| Core i5 12400F | RTX 4060 | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | £699.95 at Amazon
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.

Horizon Core | Core i5-12400F | Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti | 32 GB DDR4 | 1 TB SSD | £899.99 £799.99 at CCL (save £100)
This Horizon rig offers a great, value-conscious way of getting into PC gaming with a solid all-round entry-level build. The RTX 4060 Ti is great for 1080p gaming and even some lite 1440p gaming, and while the 12400F is a couple generations old, now, it's still fine for gaming and everyday tasks. 32 GB RAM and 1 TB storage is nice at this price point, too.

Scan Gamer RTX Gaming PC| Ryzen 5 5500 | RTX 4070 | 16 GB DDR4-3600 | 1 TB SSD | £1,029.98 £999.98 at Scan (save £30)
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.

CCL Horizon | Ryzen 7 5700X | RTX 4070 Super | 32 GB DDR4-3200 | 2 TB SSD | £1,399.99 £1,249.99 at CCL (save £150)
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.

Scan Performance| Ryzen 7 7700X | RTX 4070 Super | 16 GB DDR5-5200 | 1 TB SSD | £1,429.99 at Scan
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.

Cyberpower Luxe | Core i9 12900KF | RTX 4080 Super | 1 TB SSD | 32 GB DDR5-5200 | £1,929 at Amazon
This Cyberpower Luxe comes equipped with the fantastic Core i9 12900KF, in combination with an RTX 4080 Super that can churn through frames in any game. You also get a very fancy corner window case to show off those RGB-lit fans, making this PC a stunning looker with a serious gaming grunt to match.

3XS Gamer RTX | Core i7 14700K | RTX 4090 | 32 GB DDR5-5600 | 2 TB PCIe 4.0 SSD | £2,999.99 at Scan
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.
When is Black Friday 2024?
Black Friday 2024 is hitting November 29, this year, though we started to see discounts 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.
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.
