Treat yourself to a comfy wireless gaming headset boasting banging spatial audio for $80 off this Cyber Monday
15+ min ago (318+ words) Can you hear me now? It's almost identical to the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 (which we also loved), but often on sale for much less. Crisp sound, impressive spatial audio, plus a beefy battery and you can't go too far wrong. Key specs: Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz | 38 hour battery life | fast-charging | 360" Spatial Audio | Retractable mic arm | Sidetone dial 'Tis the season of comparing and contrasting many a confusing Cyber Monday deal. Case in point, let me present to you two wireless gaming headsets very much alike in dignity'and both available in a striking white colourway. The 7P is, in fact, so similar to the 7-sans-P, that you can read Alex's SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7 Wireless review and get a very clear image of what you're getting in this deal. Chiefly, that's an exceedingly comfortable gaming headset with a 'floating' headband design and 40mm Neodymium drivers....
One of our best reviewed microphones of the year is almost half off this Cyber Monday
43+ min ago (431+ words) A plug-and-play style microphone that sounds and looks great, we gave the NZXT Capsule Elite 88% in our review just earlier this year. The only thing letting down great sound quality is a plastic chassis and a fiddly stand. Still, your audience/friends are going to care more about sound quality than build quality, and you're covered in that regard. Key specs: 50-20,000 Hz | Cardioid | 192 kHz | 560.6 g Price check: Walmart not available | NZXT $89.99 (sold out) I still might not be used to the sound of my own voice, but getting a proper microphone has certainly helped in that regard. It's also proven valuable for communication in hectic multiplayer games, late-night Discord calls, and even the odd video. If you fancy an upgrade to your sound, and are on a budget, NZXT's rather great Capsule Elite punches above its weight and is just…...
Thanks to RAM prices, prebuilt gaming PCs are much better value for money than my ideal DIY build
2+ hour, 25+ min ago (1377+ words) I tallied the total cost and compared to current gaming PC deals and didn't like what I saw. I'm a big advocate for building your own PC. It's fun, you learn a lot and you can often save some money doing it yourself. I've built heaps of gaming PCs over the course of this year, and I'm usually pretty confident in beating a prebuilt for part selection and performance with the right deals. There are plenty of deals on PC parts today. If you're upgrading your existing PC, there are many deals worth looking into. However, building one from scratch is becoming a bit of a nightmare due to extremely inflated RAM prices, and to some degree, SSDs too. The case, cooler and PSU are all heavily discounted too. In fact, the MasterLiquid Core II is a stellar pick at…...
This $480 RTX 5070 is the mid-range graphics card I'd buy with my own cash this Cyber Monday
2+ hour, 57+ min ago (463+ words) It's all relative, isn't it? Although the RTX 5070 is a good deal faster than its predecessor, the RTX 4070, it's less of an upgrade compared to the RTX 4070 Super. DLSS 4 just about tips the balance in favor of the newer model, though, and this particular deal is well under MSRP, especially once you use the $20 rebate card. Key specs: 6144 shaders | 2587 MHz boost | 12 GB GDDR7 The RTX 5070 has a strange pricing history at this point. We were loathed to recommend it as one of our best graphics card picks when it first came out, as retailers were pushing the prices up to silly levels'but now one can be found for $480 with a $20 rebate card at Newegg this Cyber Monday, I'm ready to plant my flag in the sand. Now, opinions will vary on this point. My hardware overlord, Dave James, still sides with…...
I paid more for my smaller Samsung OLED than this Cyber Monday TV deal
4+ hour, 28+ min ago (464+ words) Am I wasting the excellence of OLED on only playing Clone Hero and YARG? Nope, it's been well worth it. OLED makes all the difference for living room gaming. Deep blacks, vivid colors and superb contrast. Plus this Samsung panel runs at 120 Hz and comes with a few game-specific features to sweeten the deal. It's a good deal at this price, even if I'm a bit dubious of that $2,000 MSRP. Surely no one is paying that. Key specs: 65-inch | 4K | 120 Hz | OLED | Tizen OS | Gaming Hub w/ GeForce Now Price check: Samsung $1,199.99 This year is no different. Best Buy have a newer version of the TV I have at home going for a huge discount right now. The Samsung S84F OLED (2025) is currently $900presented as a saving of $1,100. I don't really believe people are buying this TV at its MSRP of $2,000 but nevertheless,…...
The best RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC deal this Cyber Monday is this Alienware machine, surprisingly
4+ hour, 36+ min ago (453+ words) I'll go UFO, why not. Key specs: Core Ultra 7 265F | RTX 5070 Ti | 32 GB DDR5-5200 | 2 TB SSD | 750 W PSU And once you take into account the free 2 TB SSD upgrade? It's the best RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC deal I've found so far, among many candidates. With an RTX 5070 Ti in the GPU slot and a 20-core Intel chip in the CPU socket, this PC should deliver excellent frame rates in even the most demanding of games. I've got a lot of experience with the RTX 5070 Ti at this point, and can confirm that it's a screamingly-fast GPU at 1080p and 1440p'and can even hold its own at 4K, as long as you don't mind a dose of DLSS 4. Plus, you're getting 32 GB of DDR5-5200. It's not the fastest stuff in the world, but memory speeds don't often make a huge difference to your gaming performance, anyway....
You deserve a Giant Knob for your desk, and you're in luck because Giant Knobs are on sale for Cyber Monday
15+ hour, 51+ min ago (401+ words) It's been a hard year. Wouldn't Giant Knob make you feel better? I may not know much about much of anything, but I do know this: You deserve Giant Knob. The TobenOne's volume knob is obviously the star of the show, but it also has four pretty convenient buttons on its surface: A quick lock, monitor on/off, RGB light changer, and screenshot button. It can supply 90 watts over its USB-C Power Delivery port and supports gigabit internet and 4K video output, too. Key specs: Knob | USB-C x3 (100W PD) | USB-A x2 | HDMI (4K 60Hz) | Ethernet | 3.5mm audio | SD/microSD " We're curating the best Cyber Monday PC gaming deals right here " The TobenOne really goes above and beyond. With both Type-C and A USB ports, HDMI and Ethernet, it's really a docking station that happens to contain Giant Knob. But even if you don't need all those…...
Embrace chill vibes with these Cyber Monday cozy hardware picks
18+ hour, 7+ min ago (185+ words) From a gaming hovel to a gaming cuddle. Your PC gaming setup should be a place to relax'so why not deploy some cozy vibes? Besides perusing the 20 best cozy games on PC that aren't farm sims, what sort of surroundings you choose to game in matters. The ideal cozy gaming space will look different for everyone, but I've found some Cyber Monday deals that should offer a little inspiration for those looking to bolster the ol' mood board. As it's me, a lot of these cozy picks definitely skew towards the cuter end of the hardware spectrum. That said, I've also tried to include some bits of kit that instead offer an elegant pop of colour, rather than filling this entire cozy collection with kitty keycap designs and animal eared gaming headsets. It was a struggle, but I restrained myself....
I like to dabble in competitive FPS games and have found the best Cyber Monday deals for esports
19+ hour, 19+ min ago (339+ words) I can personally vouch for some of these, and the rest are calling my name. There might be better esports-oriented PC gaming gear than what I've highlighted here, if you're on an unlimited budget. But I've tried to put together a list that will have something to offer most gamers. This is the absolute best lightweight gaming mouse on the market right now. It's incredibly light at just 36 g, and somehow it's achieved this with nary a hole in sight. Apart from this, it's pretty barebones, but a good sensor and light weight is all that's needed for some seriously competitive FPS gameplay, and this mouse delivers on both fronts. Key specs: 33K sensor | wireless | 36 g weight | 70-hr battery Key specs: OmniPoint 3.0 HyperMagnetic Switches | Wired | Rapid trigger Key specs: Asymmetric thumbsticks | Hall effect thumbsticks | 260 g Don't expect much popping HDR or…...
The affordable wireless earbuds I use every day are $19 right now, a price so right that I'm buying backups
19+ hour, 28+ min ago (352+ words) The Anker Soundcore P20i buds are the opposite of glamorous, which is exactly what I'm looking for. My experience with wireless earbuds has taught me that springing for the extra expensive ones that go with my phone doesn't make a lick of difference when it comes to longevity. I've had two pairs of Airpods and one pair of Pixel Buds that have all crapped out in less than a year, either because they stopped keeping a charge, developed signal issues, or got quieter over time. That's why these days, I don't pay more than $30 for wireless buds I expect to crap out on me. That was the idea behind picking up a pair of Anker Soundcore P20i earbuds earlier this year, which are on sale for $18.99 during Cyber Monday. So far, they're beating my expectations. This sale price is over half off…...
