MSI has slashed prices on a number of gaming monitors this March. Here in the UK, the MSI MEG 342C QD-OLED monitor stands out in particular, offering excellent specs, with £500 chopped off its usual price tag. 

QD-OLED displays have plenty of benefits, including excellent contrast and colour accuracy, HDR performance and high refresh rates with minimal response times. If you've been wanting to pick one up but winced at the previous £1000+ price tags, then you'll be pleased to know that the MSI MEG 342C QD ultrawide gaming monitor is now down to £799 for a limited time, complete with a three-year burn-in warranty.

If you are looking to mage the jump to 4K gaming, then the MSI MAG 323UPF offers a 32-inch IPS panel with 160Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time for £499, a saving of roughly £300 from its usual price. For gamers looking to run at QHD resolution, the MSI G274QPF-QD offers exactly that, along with a 170Hz refresh rate for just £299.

If you are trying to stick to 1080p and simply need a decent, fast monitor at a reasonable price, the MSI G255PF fits the bill, coming in at £139 with a 25-inch IPS LED display with quantum-dot layer, 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response times.

These are just a few of the highlights we've spotted. You can find a full range of discounted MSI monitors on sale at Curry's, HERE.

KitGuru Says: I just recently made the jump to a QD-OLED monitor myself and it is without a doubt the nicest monitor I've ever had on my desk. Are you planning on picking up a new monitor this year?

Black Friday sales have arrived in force, with most major stores now offering big discounts on all things tech. Here, we break down some of the best gaming peripheral deals we've spotted so far, including mechanical keyboards, mice and headsets. If you are looking for a fresh upgrade – we have you covered at all budget points. 

We're kicking things off with keyboards, starting off with high-end options and working our way to more wallet-friendly options. If you have over £200 to spend on a new mechanical keyboard, then there are solid options from Corsair and Razer.

The Corsair K100 AIR RGB with Slipstream Wireless technology and Cherry MX Ultra Low profile switches. This keyboard is currently just under 20% off, bringing the price down from £279.99 to £229.99.

The Razer BlackWidow V4 Pro keycap bundle offers good value. For a discounted price of £217.99, you can get the BlackWidow V4 Pro mechanical keyboard with Razer's own tactile mechanical switches, as well as a set of upgraded PBT keycaps. Personally, I would use this as a longevity booster, wearing out the first set of keycaps before turning back the clock by giving the keyboard a clean and putting the fresh set of keycaps on to get the keyboard looking good as new.

For those with up to £200 to spend, there are several popular options. The Corsair K70 MAX RGB with adjustable-actuation switches is currently down to £176.39. The Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro with Razer Green Switches and Chroma RGB lighting is down from £229.99 to £177.99.

The Alienware Tri-Mode wireless gaming keyboard with AlienFX RGB lighting and Cherry MX Red switches is down from £249.99 to £174.99. If you prefer a TKL option, the SteelSeries Apex Pro offers an OLED panel, USB-C connection and adjustable-actuation switches for £169.99.

Moving below the £150 mark, we find the Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 at £139.99, the SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini (60% keyboard) at £129, the Razer Huntsman V2 with Optical switches at £130.99, the Logitech G915 Lightspeed with low-profile switches at £125, the Razer BlackWidow V3 at £103.48 and finally, the Corsair K70 RGB TKL at £104.99.

Usually $150, the brand new Arbiter Studio Polar 65 is now 30% off, bringing the price down to $105 for all colour combinations, including Ronin Red, Kumo Blue, Jedi Green, Midnight Lilac, Silver Lilac and Silver Panda.

You don't necessarily have to spend more than £100 to get a solid and reliable keyboard for gaming. There are plenty of solid options in the £50 to £80 range too.

Starting off at the top, we have the NZXT Function Mechanical Keyboard with hot-swappable switches at £80.70. Thanks to the hot-swap design, you can easily replace the switch to any mechanical switch you prefer at any point in time – including Cherry MX switches. At a similar price point, you can find the MSI Vigor GK71 with full RGB and media keys for £79.99. The TKL version of the Razer BlackWidow V3 can be found for £75.49.

The MSI GK50 low-profile TKL mechanical keyboard with clicky switches can be found for £59.99 and would look right at home in a gaming setup with per-key RGB lighting. The Razer Ornata V3 also offers low-profile switches but uses ‘mecha-membrane' switches instead, alongside full Razer Chroma RGB lighting.

At 47 percent off, the HyperX Alloy Origins Core keyboard offers a space-friendly tenkeyless (TKL) layout and RGB lighting with HyperX Red switches for £52.99. For a full-size option, you can find the Corsair K55 RGB PRO XT wired membrane keyboard at £49.99.

In this section, we cover gaming mice, including high-end to budget options.

As we saw with keyboards, Razer has some nice mouse bundles as well, with several higher-end options coming with a Goliathus Chroma RGB mouse pad with wireless charging capabilities so you can keep your mouse constantly topped up during use.

At 20% off, the Razer Naga V2 Pro and Goliathus Chroma bundle comes in at £173.99. The Naga is an excellent option for MMO gamers in particular thanks to its additional programmable side buttons. On its own, the Naga V2 Pro costs £149.

At £160.96, you can nab a Razer Basilisk V3 Pro with a Goliathus Chroma RGB mouse pad, offering a comfortable shape for palm grip gamers with fewer side buttons to obstruct your thumb. On its own, the Basilisk V3 Pro costs £135.99.

For a lower-profile option, the Razer Cobra Pro mouse with Goliathus Chroma mouse pad can be found for £143.99. If you are a fan of the tried and true DeathAdder mouse, then for £140.63, you can get to the DeathAdder V3 Pro with Goliathus Chroma mouse pad.

At around the £105 mark, you can find the Corsair Nightsabre RGB wireless MOBA gaming mouse with up to 100-hour battery life, or the Razer Viper V2 Pro Wireless esports gaming mouse.

Corsair's alternative to the Razer Naga, the SCIMITAR ELITE RGB Wireless MMO gaming mouse with up to 150 hours of battery life can be found for £99.98 with a similar side key layout with lots of reprogrammable buttons.

The Razer Viper Ultimate with its charging dock can be found for £90.89, with a 20K optical sensor and Chroma lighting. The Logitech G Pro X Superlight is another great lightweight wireless option in the sub-£100 bracket, offering up to 70 hours of battery life at £89.90. However, if you prefer a claw-grip style mouse, the Corsair M65 RGB Ultra Wireless with up to 120 hours of battery life offers very good specs at £79.99. For a palm grip option, Corsair has the Dark Core RGB Pro SE gaming mouse at £69.99 with Qi Wireless Charging capabilities.

The SteelSeries Aerox 5 Wireless gaming mouse offers a honeycomb shell for lightweight and swift movements for FPS games at £62.99. Alienware's AW620M is more suited for palm grip at that same £62.99 price point.

HyperX has its own honeycomb shell, ultralight mouse with lengthy battery life in the form of the HyperX Pulsefire Haste, weighing just 62g and costing £54.99 during this month's sales period. Offering a similar spec is the SteelSeries Aerox 3 for £49.99. Again, if you prefer a taller, palm-grip-suited mouse, then the Corsair Dark Core RGB Pro can be found at £49.99.

If you aren't looking for a wireless mouse, or to spend as much as £50 on a mouse, then the SteelSeries Rival 5 and NZXT Lift are both great options that fall under the £35 mark while offering RGB lighting.

At £19.99, you can grab a Trust Gaming Keyboard and mouse set, both with full RGB lighting, making for an easy and cheap way to brighten up your PC setup.

If you are looking for an audio upgrade, then there are plenty of discounts to be found there too. Everyone needs a gaming headset for reliable comms with teammates in multiplayer games, or for quietly playing through single-player titles.

At the high-end, Razer's bundle options feature again, offering a headset, alongside an RGB Chroma-lit headphone hangar for your desk to keep your headphones tucked away when not in use. The Razer Barracuda Pro wireless with base station is down from £319.98 to £270.99, the BlackShark V2 Pro with base station is down to £228.99 and the ever-popular Kraken V3 Pro with base station is down to £228.99 as well.

SteelSeries also has some great options in the high-end, including the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, now down to £268.99 (18% off) and the Arctis Pro Wireless at £199.99.

Moving into the below £200 bracket, the Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT offers Dolby Atmos, Bluetooth audio and multi-platform support for £184.99. At that same price point, you can also find the Logitech G Astro A30 Lightspeed.

If you don't mind giving up features like Dolby Atmos support out of the box, then the standard Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless can be found at £149.99. Another step below that, at £134.99, you could nab the latest HyperX Cloud III Wireless gaming headset.

The Steel Series Arctis Pro with GameDAC offers a high-fidelity wired option at the £124.99 price point – a 50% saving over its RRP. If you want a wireless headset for that kind of money, then the standard Razer Barracuda Wireless with USB-C charging can be found for £118.99.

At closer to the £100 mark, the Logitech G Pro X Wireless and Corsair HS80 RGB Wireless can both be found for £109 during the sales period.

You don't have to spend over £100 to get reliable gaming audio. There are plenty of more affordable options well below the £100 mark, including the base model Razer Barracuda X Wireless, offering multiplatform support, USB-C charging and 40mm drivers at £82.99. The wired version of the HyperX Cloud III can be found for £79.99. Corsair's comparable HS80 RGB wired headset can be found at £69.99.

If you would rather have a wireless headset at £60 or less, the Corsair HS55 Wireless Core offers exactly that, with 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth, as well as support for 3D Audio on the PS5, for £59.99. However, if you don't mind trading down to a wired model with Dolby Surround support out of the box, then the Corsair HS65 Surround might be the way to go at £54.98.

At £34.99, you can find the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 and Corsair HS35 wired gaming headsets. Logitech's most comparable option is the Logitech G432 Wired Gaming Headset at £38.50 with its generously large ear cups. Finally, the Trust Gaming GXT 391 Thian is built using environmentally sustainable materials and offers wireless audio at just £39.99.

If you are in need of a new gaming monitor then now is a very good time to shop around. Many early Black Friday deals are already live, chopping hundreds off high-refresh monitor prices, including the new MEG 342C QD-OLED, which is now £300 off until the end of the month.

MSI has dropped a new wave of Black Friday deals. At the top of the list is a £300 discount on the MEG 342C QD-OLED monitor. If you're looking to make the jump to an OLED display for PC gaming, then this monitor has a lot to offer, including ultrawide resolution, super low 0.03ms response times and a 175Hz refresh rate, now down to £999.

The MAG 274UPF is aimed at those looking to make the jump to 4K gaming. With the monitor now down to under £450, you get quite a bit for your money, including a 27-inch UHD IPS panel, 144Hz refresh rate for ultra-smooth gaming and HDMI 2.1 so you can hook up your PC, alongside one of the newer consoles like an Xbox Series X or PS5 to take full advantage of their 120Hz modes.

At the sub-£300 mark, you can find the MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD, an esports-focused monitor with 1440p resolution and 165Hz refresh rate.  If a curved, Quantum Dot display is more to your liking, you can find the MSI MAG275CQRF-QD for just shy of £250.

Moving down to under £200, we can find the MSI G32CQ4 E2 for £199, offering 1440p at 170Hz, or if you are looking for a capable FHD gaming monitor for a multi-display upgrade, you can find the MSI Optix G2722 at £149 or the MSI G2422 at just £109.

There will be additional discounts coming in as we get closer to Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so shop around as there are plenty of good deals to be found for those looking to upgrade their PC gaming setups. As we get further into the month, we will also start to see more discounts on other hardware, including cases, coolers and even graphics cards.

Black Friday is just around the corner but many deals can be found ahead of time. If you are looking to pick up a new gaming PC during this year's sales, then it is worth shopping around as there are plenty of decent deals to be found. Gladiator PC has put together a few special configurations for Black Friday this year, only available for a limited time. 

Gladiator's Black Friday range starts off with the BF4060Ti system, featuring a Ryzen 5 7500F 6-core processor, 32GB of DDR5 memory, a 1TB NVMe SSD and just as the system's name implies, an RTX 4060 Ti (16GB). Currently, this PC is priced at £1,229.99. If you would rather have an RTX 4070, then the BF4070 PC can be had for £1,449.95, offering an RTX 4070 and a Ryzen 5 7600X, alongside 32GB of DDR5 memory and a 1TB SSD.

The BF4070Ti system offers very good value at its current promotional price. The system includes an 8-core Ryzen 7 7700 processor, 32GB of DDR5 memory, a 1TB SSD and an RTX 4070 Ti for £1,779.95.

Gladiator also has an all-AMD rig available if you would prefer. The BF7900XT includes a Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, often regarded as the best current CPU for gaming. Joining the CPU, you'll find 32GB of DDR5 memory, a 2TB SSD and finally, a Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics card with 20GB of VRAM, all for £1,999.99.

Each system also qualifies for a game bundle deal. Those buying a system with an Nvidia graphics card will get a free code for Alan Wake 2, while the RX 7900 XT system comes bundled with Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, releasing in December.

You can find all of Gladiator PC's Black Friday deals, HERE.

Amazon Prime Day is officially live until July 12th and there are plenty of PC deals to be found. Here, we take a look at the best gaming monitor deals, with 240Hz monitors dropping to just £200. 

There are many discounted monitors available on Amazon for Prime Day, ranging from high-end ultrawide and 4K displays to more cost-effective 1440p and 1080p monitors. These are all gaming displays, which for us, means anything offering at least 120Hz. In most cases, the monitors we've picked out offer much more than that.

We'll start off at the high-end of the market. The Corsair Xeneon Flex is an interesting monitor, offering the ability to physically bend the monitor to switch between a flat and curved display. It offers an OLED 240Hz 45-inch panel with 3440×1440 resolution. It impressed us in our review, but its £2000 price tag did sting. Currently for Prime Day, this monitor is down to £1,399, a 33% saving.

If you would rather have a super-wide display, then the increasingly popular Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is currently down to £1,499, offering a 49-inch 5120×1440 display with HDR and 240Hz refresh rate.

Samsung has a couple of other good options at different price points. For £999, you can get the Odyssey Neo Quantum G8 Mini LED monitor, offering 4K/240Hz and HDR in a 32-inch display. The Odyssey G7 offers 1440 at 240Hz and HDR for £449.

The MSI Optix MAG35 is down from £449 to £399, offering a 34-inch 3440×1440 ultrawide display with 144Hz refresh rate, making this one of the better ultrawide deals available for those looking to spend less than £500. The MSI MPG Artymis 27 is also worth a shoutout, offering a 27-inch 1440p/165Hz display for £299.

The Philips Gaming 32M1 is down to £225, offering a 32-inch QHD display and 165Hz refresh rate.

Finally, if you are after a cheap 1080p gaming monitor, there are plenty of options at and under the £200 mark. The Samsung Odyssey G4 is down from £299 to £209. You'll have to settle for 1080p at 27 inches. As the display is larger than a typical 24-inch 1080p display, you get less pixels per inch, so it is a trade-off to be aware of.

If you prefer 1080p in a smaller package, then the AOC Gaming C24 is a great option, at just £124.99, this monitor offers a 24-inch 1080p display with a 165Hz refresh rate, making it an ideal and cheap entry point into high refresh rate gaming.

This is just a selection of some of the deals that stood out to us but there are plenty of other deals to be found. If you are looking for a new monitor, you can find all of the deals HERE.

Amazon Prime Day is officially live until July 12th and there are plenty of PC deals to be found. Here, we take a look at the best laptop deals from MSI, with RTX 40 laptops starting at just £799. 

Amazon has deals on its latest range of Intel 13th Generation powered laptops, as well as some of its older 12th Gen models. Prices have dropped considerably, so if you do end up picking one up, you'll be saving hundreds of pounds compared to buying usually. Here are some of the best deals.

The biggest saving can be found on the MSI Raider GE78HX, featuring a Core i9-13950HX and an RTX 4080. Typically, this model would sell for £3,599 but for Prime Day, it is £800 off, bringing the price down to £2,799. The MSI Stealth 17 Studio has a similarly high saving of £750, with the Core i7-13700H/RTX 4060 model coming down from £2,499 to £1,749.

If you are after an RTX 4060-equipped laptop, then the MSI Pulse 15 may be a better option. The Pulse 15 with a QHD display, RTX 4060 and Intel Core i7-13700H is down from £1,699 to £1,189, making it one of our favourite picks on the list.

At the under £1000 mark, we have two solid gaming options for you. The MSI Cyborg 15 with a Core i5-12450H and RTX 4060 can currently be found for just £949. Meanwhile, the MSI Katana 17 packs a Core i7-12650H and an RTX 2050 for £799.

Our final pick on the list is an entry-level laptop, not necessarily suited for AAA gaming, but will get you through a work day reliably. In this category, we have the MSI Modern 15 with a 12th Gen Core i5 and Iris Xe integrated graphics for £499.

This is just a selection of a few of the most interesting deals we could find, but there are plenty of others to be found, so be sure to check out all of MSI's Prime Day laptop deals, HERE.

Gaming can be expensive, especially if you are wanting to go all-out with RGB lighting and the like. Black Friday presents an opportunity for you to get your hands on some good savings, with Razer’s Black Friday sale live right now.

Live right now, over 100 Razer products have been discounted, ranging from charging stands to universal grip tape and everything in between. Some of the most exciting deals include the Razer Huntsman Elite: a full-sized gaming keyboard which uses Razer’s own opto-mechanical switches – giving you full control over a key’s actuation point. Furthermore, the Huntsman Elite comes with a key stabiliser bar on top of its switches to ensure a consistent experience – and a magnetic wrist rest for added long-term comfort. Finally, the keyboard also includes a nifty programmable Multi-function digital dial. Retailing for £199.99, the Huntsman Elite has had its price slashed in half to just £99.99.

On the mouse front, the Razer Orochi V2 is a wireless mouse which comes with an impressive 950 hours of battery life while weighing less than 60 grams. On top of Bluetooth, the Orochi V2 can make use of Razer’s HyperSpeed Wireless technology, making for responsive gaming while still lasting for over 400 hours. Originally £69.99, you can now get the Orochi V2 for just £29.99.

If you want to go all-in on gaming, the Razer Viper Ultimate mouse was designed with eSports in mind and so includes the Razer Focus+ 20K Optical Sensor, optical mouse switches and 70 hours of battery while remaining light at just 74 grams. Razer’s Black Friday deal also includes the mouse’s unique wireless charging dock, meaning you can now get the complete package for just £63.99 (was £149.99).

Finally, what gaming setup would be complete without a solid headset? The highly popular Razer Kraken Kitty Edition comes with Thx spatial 7.1 surround sound; a retractable active noise-cancelling microphone and cooling-gel ear cushions to prevent hot ears. Oh, and it also has customisable RGB cat ears. The Razer Kraken Kitty Edition launched at £149.99, but can now be had for £89.99. The full list of Razer’s Black Friday deals can be found HERE.

Black Friday offers one of the best opportunities for you to get your hands on some gaming tech for much lower than RRP. Alongside all other hardware manufacturers, Corsair’s Black Friday deals are currently live:

Corsair's full lineup of Black Friday deals is vast, and ranges from Elgato streaming gear to liquid coolers and everything in between. For our purposes, we will be looking at the manufacturer’s gaming peripherals, including Corsair’s K65 RGB MINI 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. Originally costing £139.99, you can now start gaming with its CHERRY MX Red Mechanical Key Switches and PBT Double-Shot Keycaps for just £79.99 (43% off).

If you’re instead wanting a full-sized keyboard for your home setup, Corsair’s high-end K70 Pro has dropped from an RRP of £179.99 to £129.99 (28% off). Offering the full set of 104 keys, the K70 Pro features an aluminium frame; Corsair’s OPX Optical-Mechanical keyswitches; a volume roller; a magnetic palm rest and a dedicated tournament switch.

If you’re looking for an affordable-yet-dependable mouse, the Corsair Harpoon has you covered with its Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless options, six programmable buttons and even a bit of RGB – all while weighing just 99 grams. Originally retailing for £54.99, the mouse is now available for just £36.99 (33% off).

On the other end of the spectrum, the Corsair Dark Core RGB PRO SE is an Nvidia Reflex certified mouse which bumps up the total inputs to 8 fully programmable buttons; utilises hyper-polling for fast response times and uses a custom PixArt PAW3392 optical sensor to optimise for low power consumption and customisability in 1 DPI resolution steps – and even supports Qi wireless charging. All this can be yours for a reduced price from £109.99 to a more palatable £79.99 (36% off).

If you’re looking for a solid and comfortable wireless headset for long gaming sessions, the Corsair HS80 comes equipped with the company’s ‘slipstream’ technology for minimal audio latency and up to 20 hours of battery life with 60ft of range. What’s more, the headset’s memory foam earpads use a breathable fabric material, while the headband itself floats above your dome, meaning extended play sessions should be no issue. With an RRP of £159.99 the Corsair HS80 can now be had for just £99.99 (38% off).

These are just some of the MANY deals Corsair is currently running as part of its Black Friday sale, with the full lineup available HERE.

Black Friday is officially upon us and we're seeing a ton of great discounts on PC upgrades. If you are after a new CPU, a prebuilt gaming rig, a new graphics card, a monitor upgrade or anything in between, we have some good options for you.

Gaming can be an expensive hobby, and so it behoves us to find savings wherever we can in order to free up as much money as possible for purchasing video games themselves. Fortunately, as part of Black Friday, ASUS is discounting many of its most popular gaming peripherals.

Gaming is a recreational activity, and as such, should be as fun and satisfying as possible. ASUS’ ROG line of peripherals try to do just that – no matter your budget. The company’s Delta S series of headsets are all on offer currently, with the Delta S Core taking the lower end of the spectrum, being discounted from £89.99 RRP to £74.99.

As can be gleaned from its name, the Delta S Core offers the baseline set of features which one would want from a wired gaming headset, including a lightweight 260-gram design; big 50mm drivers and a detachable boom microphone, certified by both Discord and TeamSpeak.

The S Core’s older sibling – the ROG Delta S – is also on sale for Black Friday, dropping from £189.99 RRP to a more palatable £149.99 (21% off). The Delta S offers quite a few neat additional features when compared to the Core headset, including improved audio thanks to its MQA rendering technology and Hi-Res ESS 9281 QUAD DAC. The Delta S also comes with an improved microphone, featuring a bigger driver as well as ASUS’ AI noise cancelling technology. Finally, it wouldn’t be a high-end gaming peripheral if it didn’t have RGB lighting, and so the Delta S includes reactive and customisable RGB lights in the ear cups.

Most gaming mice are designed with right-handed users in mind, but if you are left-handed (or ambidextrous), then ROG has you covered with its STRIX Impact II gaming mouse. Costing just £29.99 currently (down from £44.99), this wired mouse includes an on-the-fly DPI switcher (up to 6,200 DPI), hot-swappable mouse click switches and even some RGB action. The only downside to this ambidextrous mouse is the fact that the programmable side buttons remain on the left side of the mouse.

The ROG Chakram X has seen a substantial discount from £149.99 to just £104.99, with this wireless mouse including everything you could ask for and the kitchen sink. Thanks to its AimPoint optical sensor the Chakram X features 36,000 dpi for added flexibility. Offering both Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz allows for ultimate compatibility with devices. Alongside NVIDIA Reflex verification, Qi wireless charging support and 7 programmable buttons, the Chakram X even includes a detachable side mounted joystick for hybrid controls.

ASUS also has a bunch of keyboards discounted, including the ROG Strix Scope NX TKL (£134.99 down to £99.99) – designed specifically for FPS gaming thanks to its ten-keyless design for added mouse movement as well as an extended left-shift for easier sprinting. High build quality is maintained thanks to an aluminium top-plate and a detachable cable. Perhaps most importantly, the Strix Scope NX TKL comes with the titular ROG-exclusive NX switches for “fast actuation with ROG-tuned force curves for great keypress feel and feedback.”

The ROG Claymore II meanwhile (£249.99 to £199.99) offers pretty much everything you could want in a keyboard and then some, with the standout feature by far being its modular design – allowing you to attach a number pad to the left or right side of the keyboard depending on your need/preference. The Claymore II also comes with a magnetically detachable wrist rest; wired or 2.4GHz connectivity (with a 1ms response time in either instance); fast charging and USB passthrough; four large customisable hotkeys and a volume wheel. As expected, the Claymore II uses ROG’s RX Optical Mechanical Switches for “consistent wobble-free keystrokes with near-zero debounce delay.”

These are but a few of the MANY products currently on sale as part of ASUS’ Black Friday deals, with the full line-up including motherboards; monitors; laptops and even smartphones. ASUS’s Black Friday sale is live right now and will run until the 2nd of December.

Like many other brands during this season, AMD is holding some special deals at the moment, cutting down prices for a range of products. We've already seen some good price drops for Ryzen 7000 CPUs. Now, there are also great deals to be had on previous-gen Ryzen 5000 chips, as well as RX 6000 graphics cards. 

Starting with the CPUs, you can now grab a Ryzen 5 5600X for £169.99 on either ebuyer or OverclockersUK, offering a considerable discount over its price back when it was released. Other Ryzen 5000 processors on sale include the Ryzen 7 5800X for £239.99 and the Ryzen 7 5800X3D for £354.98, both at Scan. The last CPU deal to look out for is the Ryzen 9 7950X, available for £599.99 (a £148.99 price cut).

Moving on to the GPU Deals, there are plenty worth mentioning. Starting from the lower end of the spectrum, you can grab an MSI Radeon RX 6650 XT Gaming X for just £308.99 or spend an extra £101 for an Asus Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB Dual. Next up, we have the Asus Radeon RX 6800 XT TUF Gaming OC for £649.99, the ASRock Radeon RX 6900 XT Phantom Gaming D for £689.99, and the MSI Radeon RX 6900 XT Gaming X Trio for £709.98. Lastly, you can also take advantage of the MSI Radeon RX 6950 XT Gaming X Trio deal, which puts it at £829.98.

If you prefer a complete system over buying separate components to upgrade your PC or build one from scratch, there are also full system deals worth mentioning. First, we have the OCUK Gaming Radiance Bullet (Ryzen 5 5600G, 32GB RAM, RTX 3060) with a £300 discount, reducing it to £999.95. If you prefer something more gaming-oriented in the same price range, the AlphaSync PBA Diamond Gaming Desktop PC 5600X (Ryzen 5 5600X, 16GB RAM, RTX 3060 Ti) for £1049.99 might be worth a look.

For something with a bit more power, PCSpecialist is also holding a deal for its Fusion BF PC, equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, 16GB of RAM, and a Radeon RX 6700 XT, reducing its price to £1369. You can also find the OCUK Gaming Vulture with a Ryzen 7 5800X, an Asus Radeon RX 6800 XT TUF Gaming OC, and 16GB of RAM for a special price of £1,799.99.

It is Amazon Prime Day, making the next 48 hours a perfect time to pick up a few new bits for your PC setup. If you're in need of some new peripherals, or you're looking to kickstart a stream with some Elgato gear, Corsair has some deals worth checking out over the next couple of days. 

If you are in need of a new headset, then Corsair has done particularly well with deals in this area. The high-end HS80 RGB gaming headset is £42 off, bringing the price down from £109.99 to £67.99. You can also get the HS80 RGB Wireless edition with a £50 saving, bringing the price down to £109.99. Corsair's flagship headset, the Virtuoso Wireless SE, is down from £199.99 to £165. On the more affordable end of the spectrum, the HS60 Haptic is down to £49.99 and the HS55 Surround is down to £44.99, and available in Carbon or White colourways. If you'd like a convenient stand and an extra dash of RGB colour for your setup, the ST100 RGB Headset Stand is currently £52.99.

On the keyboard front, there are just a couple of options – the K65 RGB RAPIDFIRE with Cherry MX Speed switches, which is currently going for £90.99, or the K70 MK.2 RGB with Cherry MX Blue switches, which is now £104.99.

If you are looking to kickstart a gaming stream, or you simply want better lighting and video for Discord calls, you'll find the Elgato Facecam with a discount, bringing the price down to £139.99, as well as the Elgato Ring Light for £40 off, bringing the price down to £149.99.

On the PC hardware front, Corsair has a few deals there too, mainly focused on power supplies and cooling. The Corsair CX550M and HX750 power supply units are all on sale, bringing prices down to £51.99 and £119.99 respectively. If you want some extra fans, the Corsair AF140 dual pack is £10 off, bringing the price down to £14.99.

As always, Prime Day deals are subject to availability, so if stock runs out, you won't be able to take advantage of the discount. With that in mind, if you have your eye on something in particular, you are better off grabbing it, rather than waiting.

Amazon Prime Day has officially arrived and there are tons of deals to be had. Not only can Prime members claim over 30 games for free this week, but there are also loads of discounts on PC gaming gear, making now a perfect time to pick up an upgrade. After doing some digging, it looks like now is an especially good time to pick up a new gaming monitor.

At the entry-level, there are Prime Day deals on a bunch of high refresh rate 1080p monitors, starting at just £129.99 for the LG UltraGear Gaming 24GN53A-B, knocking almost 30% off its usual price. The MSI Optix G27X6 is also a good option here, coming in at £147.25 but offering a larger display, 165Hz refresh rate and 1500R curvature.

AOC and ASUS also have worthy considerations in this price bracket, including the AOC Gaming 24G2U at £153.99 and the ASUS TUF Gaming VG258QM, offering a 280Hz refresh rate and DisplayHDR 400 at just £175. If you are after something with a bit more resolution, then there are plenty of options on that front too. The Samsung Odyssey G5 is currently down to £229, offering 1440p resolution at 144Hz, 1ms response time, FreeSync Premium and HDR10.

At £399, you can make the jump to an AOC Gaming U28G2XU, offering 4K resolution at 144Hz, 1ms response time, DisplayHDR 400 and FreeSync Premium Pro. At this price point, the AOC Gaming monitor is absolutely worth the price, coming in significantly lower than the £590 launch price from our review.

The Samsung Odyssey AG700 also offers 4K/144Hz gaming and HDMI 2.1, which will support 120Hz with next-gen consoles, but it is more expensive, coming in at £480.

Perhaps the best monitor deal of the day comes from ASUS. If you want the fastest monitor money can buy, then you'll want to look at the ROG Swift PG259QNR, an esports focused monitor with a blazing fast 360Hz refresh rate. Typically, this monitor costs upwards of £800, but for Prime Day, it has dropped to £499.

For the past couple of years, PC gamers have had a particularly tough time due to GPU shortages and skyrocketing prices. There are signs that things will return to normal in the coming months, and Nvidia is looking to spur things along a bit. Nvidia has teamed up with a number of its partners in the UK to ensure stock of GPUs at reasonable prices. 

The Nvidia Restocked & Reloaded campaign began last week, initially with nine deals in place so that UK buyers could buy an RTX 30 series graphics card, or pre-built PC with an RTX 30 GPU inside, at reasonable price points. It is a much needed break from the inflated retail prices we've been seeing over the last two years.

Those original nine deals have since gone out of stock, but Nvidia has refreshed the deals line-up this week with new offerings.

At the entry level, we have the Inno3D RTX 3060 Twin X2 GPU, now available for £379.99 while supplies last. For £479.99, you can make the jump to the Zotac RTX 3060 Ti Twin Edge OC. On the higher-end of the market, there is the Palit RTX 3070 Ti Gaming Pro for £659.99, the MSI RTX 3080 Gaming Z for £999.99 and the KFA2 RTX 3080 Ti SG for £1,049.99.

If you are after a full new PC, then there are multiple options there too. The OCUK Gaming Enigma Enthusiast PC packs a Ryzen 7 5800X and an RTX 3070 Ti for £1,599.99. The CCL Horizon 5 packs a Ryzen 7 5800X and an RTX 3080 for £1,762.99 and the EBUYER XG Gaming RTX desktop packs an RTX 3060 and a Core i5-10400F for £879.99.

KitGuru Says: It seems that Nvidia plans to refresh its UK deals over the coming weeks, so if you've been waiting on UK stock, it might be a good idea to keep checking back while this promotion is on-going.

Peripherals are hugely important to any gaming setup and there is no better time to pick up a new set than towards the end of the year, during Black Friday and Christmas sales. We've rounded up some of the best deals you can get on mice, keyboards, and headsets for Black Friday this year. 

On the mouse front, you can never go wrong with the tried and true Razer DeathAdder, with the V2 version currently on sale down from £69.99 to £29.99.

For headsets, both the Razer Nari Ultimate is a good buy at £79.99 versus its usual £199.99 price tag. If you want something a little more battle-tested, the HyperX Cloud II is still a decent headset even today and is currently on sale for £58.49. Corsair's HS60 PRO is a worthy alternative and is currently even cheaper, going for £45.90, but if you'd prefer to go wireless, then the Corsair Void Elite RGB Wireless gaming headset is 30% off, bringing the price down to £69.99. Logitech has the most budget friendly headset on the list with the G432, currently priced at £29.28.

For keyboards there are a lot of options to choose from, starting with the consistently popular Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 with Cherry MX switches, currently down from £149.99 to £99.99. If you're after something a bit more low-profile, then the Logitech G815 Lightsync comes with RGB and low-profile tactile keys for £97.98. The Razer Huntsman V2 Analog with Optical switches remains high-end, but it is a bit more affordable than before, with the price dropping from £249.99 to £139.99.

Black Friday has officially arrived and with it, there are a ton of new deals floating around, making this weekend the best time to buy some new upgrades for your gaming setup. We’ve been on the lookout for some of the best storage and memory deals.

SSDs:

SSDs have become the standard for gaming PCs, whether you have a smaller SSD to make your Windows install more responsive, or a higher capacity version to squeeze in some games too. As is the case every year, there are some big savings to be had on SSDs for Black Friday.

Western Digital has a bunch of compelling options, starting with the WD Blue SN550 500GB M.2 SSD for £49.99. At this price, you'll get an NVMe SSD with read/write speeds of 2400MB/s and 1750MB/s respectively. If you spend a bit more, then you can get the WD Black SN750 500GB M.2 NVMe SSD for £64.99, with read/write speeds of 3470MB/s and 2600MB/s respectively.

For a 1TB M.2 SSD, you don't need to look far. There is a WD Blue SN550 1TB model with read/write speeds of 2400MB/s and 1950MB/s respectively for £85.99. If you don't mind sacrificing some speed for capacity, then the WD Blue 3D NAND M.2 2TB model is £149.99, bringing high capacity in an M.2 form factor.

This list wouldn't be complete without an entry from Samsung. The Samsung 860 EVO 500GB SATA SSD is on sale right now for £52.99. Meanwhile, the 970 EVO Plus 500GB M.2 NVMe SSD is £69.99.

A couple of other decent SATA SSD options include the SanDisk SSD PLUS 480GB for £42.99 and the Crucial MX500 1TB model for £79.99.

Our final highlight here is the Corsair MP400, a 1TB M.2 SSD with read/write speeds of up to 3400MB/s and 3000MB/s respectively for £103.98.

HDDs:

As great as SSDs are, it is still significantly cheaper to use a HDD for mass storage. There are several high-capacity hard drives on sale today, so if you need 2TB of space or more, we'll have something here for you.

First up, we have the Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD, delivering 7200RPM speeds and a 256MB cache for £52.99. There is also the Seagate IronWolf 4TB NAS HDD, intended for network-attached storage systems for mass storage. This one is currently 16% off, bringing the price down to £99.95. There is also a Barracuda 4TB HDD available for £98.09.

On the Western Digital side, there is the WD Black P10 5TB external HDD, which works with both PCs and consoles, so you can take your gaming library anywhere. For Black Friday, this drive is down to £87.99. If you need an internal HDD, then the WD Red 4TB is also on sale today for £109.06.

RAM/Memory:

We're entering a new console gaming generation, which naturally also has an impact on PC. The baseline standard has been raised to 16GB of memory and given how much RAM our browser tabs eat up, there is seemingly never a bad time to consider putting more RAM into your system.

The RAM kit deals we've spotted start at just £55.99 for a TeamGroup Vulcan T-Force 16GB (8GBx2) DDR4 kit with CL16 timings and clocked at 3200MHz. The 32GB kit version is also on sale, coming in at £89.99. The folks at OverclockersUK even have a special ‘8Pack' edition of the TeamGroup XTREEM 16GB kit, promising speeds of up to 4000MHz in dual-channel mode for £109.99.

There are two more kits from Patriot, both being part of the Viper line. The first is a 16GB kit with 3600MHz speeds for £68.99. The second Viper kit offers 32GB of memory at 3600MHz for £119.99.

Over on Amazon, you'll find a 3200MHz kit of Corsair Dominator Platinum memory for £152.86, or you can opt for a Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 16GB 3600MHz kit for £89.24.

KitGuru Says: There are plenty of other deals online, so be sure to shop around a bit. Are any of you planning on picking something up during the Black Friday sales?

Black Friday has officially arrived and with it, there are a ton of new deals floating around, making this weekend the best time to buy some new upgrades for your gaming setup. We’ve been on the lookout for some of the best gaming monitors on sale, so if you're looking to make a big upgrade, you'll find something worthy here. 

Ultra-Wide:

Over the last five years, the popularity of ultra-wide 21:9 and 32:9 displays has grown substantially. If you're looking to make the jump to ultra-wide, then there are quite a few discounted options to choose from this weekend.

We'll start off at the high-end of the scale and work our way down to the more affordable options from there. Kicking things off we have the Samsung Odyssey G9 – a beastly 49-inch 5120×1440 display with a 240Hz refresh rate. Typically, this monitor goes for around £1,300 but for Black Friday, it is down to £1,099.99. The 120Hz version is £887.99 too, so you can save some money and still have a really good refresh rate for gaming.

Perhaps the biggest discount here is 50% off the AOC AGON AG35. This is a 35-inch 3440×1440 monitor with G-Sync Ultimate, meaning tear-free gaming and HDR1000. To top it all off, it also has a 200Hz refresh rate. At launch, this was a £1,999.99 display, but for Black Friday, it is down to £999.95.

This list wouldn't be complete without an entry from ASUS ROG. For Black Friday, the ROG Strix XG43VQ is down to £799.99. For that price, you get a 43-inch, 3840×1200, HDR-capable display with a 120Hz refresh rate, making it an excellent candidate for gaming.

On the cheaper end of the spectrum, the Iiyama G-Master series is definitely worth a look. The G-Master GB3466WQSU-B1 for instance is just £378.95 right now, offering a 34-inch, 3440×1440 ultrawide display with 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time and FreeSync Premium Pro technology.

1440p/QHD:

The price of 1440p, high-refresh rate gaming has slowly dipped over the last five years. As part of Black Friday, a lot of excellent options are now dipping below the £600 mark.

The Samsung Odyssey G7 32″ is a prime example. This is a 32-inch VA display with 1440p resolution and 240Hz refresh rate – it is also both FreeSync and G-Sync Compatible and is rated with 1ms response time. For Black Friday, this monitor is 12% off, bringing the price down from £628.99 to £549.95.

AOC has a similarly spec'd option. The AG273QZ is a smaller 27-inch monitor, but it still packs a 240Hz refresh rate at 1440p resolution, supports 0.5ms response times and uses FreeSync technology to remove screen tearing. At the moment, this monitor is on sale for £469.99.

The ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQL1A and its earlier version, the VG27AQ are both on sale. The former is a 170Hz 1440p display with an IPS panel, currently discounted to £448.99. Meanwhile, the latter is a 1440p/165Hz IPS display, currently discounted to £408.95. An ASUS ROG Strix option also sneaks its way in the middle here. The ROG Strix XG27WQ is another 1440p/165Hz display, this time featuring FreeSync Premium Pro and G-Sync Compatibility for £428.99.

MSI has two standout options in the 1440p segment too. The first is the OPTIX MAG32, a 32-inch 1440p/165Hz display with FreeSync and 1ms response time for £398.99. Meanwhile, the smaller 27-inch OPTIX MAG27 offers the same 1440p resolution and 165Hz refresh rate at a cheaper £348.95 price point.

If you are looking to spend less than £300, then you are in luck. The MSI OPTIX G27CQ4 offers a 1440p VA panel with 165Hz refresh rate for £298.99. The ASUS TUF Gaming VG27WQ1B offers similar specs at the same sale price. Finally, if you are looking for something a little bigger, then the Gigabyte G32QC-EK brings a 32-inch VA panel with 1440p resolution and 165Hz refresh rate for £299.99.

1080p/FHD:

As nice as gaming at higher resolutions can be, it isn't imperative to a good PC gaming experience. There are still plenty of PC gamers sticking to 1080p. With that in mind, we've rounded up some of the best Full HD gaming monitor deals.

Starting off with the Acer Predator XB273GX, this is a 27-inch 1080p monitor with an IPS panel, a 0.1ms response time and 240Hz refresh rate. Currently, this monitor is 20% off, bringing the price down to £319.99. Alternatively, the LG27GN750 offers similar specs, including a 27-inch IPS panel and 240Hz refresh rate, but the price is knocked down to an even lower £299.99.

ASUS dominates the sub-£250 area with a bunch of options to choose from. At the top, we have the VG278QR, offering a 1080p FreeSync/G-Sync TN display with a 165Hz refresh rate for £248.99. The VG279Q is also on sale, offering a 1080p IPS display with 1ms response time and 144Hz refresh rate for £238.99. There is also the TUF Gaming VG27VH1B, offering a 27-inch VA 1080p panel with a 165Hz refresh rate for £218.99.

If you are looking to spend less than £200, then we have three standouts for you. The Gigabyte G27F-EK packs a 27-inch IPS panel, 1080p resolution and 144Hz refresh rate for £199.99. The Acer Nitro VG27 also packs a 27-inch 1080p panel, but this time, it is VA, with a higher 165Hz refresh rate for £199.99. Finally, we have the smaller 24-inch AOC C24G2U. At this smaller size, you get a higher pixel density, FreeSync Premium and 165Hz refresh rate, all for just £179.99.

KitGuru Says: There are lots of great gaming monitors to choose from, so we hope our round-up of the best Black Friday deals helps you decide what to pick up. Let us know if you end up upgrading – we always love to see what our readers are using in their gaming setups!

If you are in the need of a GPU upgrade, then there are some pretty good deals going on this week. Not only are there GeForce RTX 20 series and GTX 16 series graphics cards on sale, but there are also a couple of discounts on AMD's Radeon RX 5700 range too. 

The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 Super Windforce normally retails for £529.99 but is currently in stock and down to £499.99. The non-super RTX 2070 Windforce is also down to £398.99 if you fancy saving some extra cash.

The Gigabyte RTX 2060 Super Windforce is also down to £428.99, while the non-super RTX 2060 is down to £319.99. If ray-tracing isn't necessarily what you are after, then the Gigabyte GTX 1660 OC and GTX 1660 SUPER OC are down to £199.99 and £229.99 respectively.

Finally, if you are looking to upgrade to AMD's latest and greatest, then the Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING OC is down from £439.99 to £398.99. The MSI Radeon RX 5700 GAMING X is also on sale for £299.99 at the moment.

The final deal we've got on the list is aimed at those who want some additional RAM rather than a full new GPU. The 8Pack Team Group Edition 16GB 3600MHz kit is down to £119.99, which is a great price for such high speeds.

Black Friday is nearly upon us, and in celebration, PlayStation is hosting a massive PS Store sale, offering up to 70% off of some of 2019’s biggest games, including Resident Evil 2, Metro Exodus, and Devil May Cry V. This is just the first wave of the sale too, with more games being added to the list on the 28th. If you’ve been holding out on buying 2019’s biggest games, now is the time to do so.

Some of the best deals available include Devil May Cry V for £15.99 (64% off). This action-adventure hack and slash came out in March of this year to critical acclaim, becoming one of the top 10 highest rated games of the year upon its release.

Metro Exodus is also available for £15.99 saving you 70%. This first person shooter thriller was released back in February, and served as a great addition to the franchise. If you want a tense first person experience, that isn’t a survival horror game, Metro Exodus will serve you well.

Resident Evil 2 is currently tied for the highest rated game of the year on PlayStation 4, and can currently be had for £15.99 (64% off). This remake of the classic PSone survival horror game stands on its own as a must buy if you haven’t already.

Life is Strange 2’s final episode releases on the 3rd of December, and the complete season can now be purchased for £16.49 (50% off). While the first episode may have released in 2018, you can finally experience the entire story in one go, and for 50% off at that.

The witcher 3 may be an older title in comparison to many on this list, but it’s arguably one of the best games of the generation. If you’re looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077’s release next year, but have yet to play the Witcher 3, the complete edition featuring all the expansions can be yours for £12.99 (62% off).

These are but a small selection of the many games that PlayStation are offering for Black Friday. The sale is available from now until the 2nd of December, although more games will be added on the 28th, so be sure to check in then as well.

The Epic Games Store is currently offering a new free game of the week. Replacing last week’s offering of The Messenger, is the real-time tactical roguelite ‘Bad North’. The game is available to download for free until the 29th of November, when it will be replaced by Rayman Legends.

Bad North has players “position and relocate your troops to fend off the Vikings, who each have their own counters to the threats you pose. Pick your battles and plan your evacuations carefully! Lose a commander and they’re gone forever; lose everything, and it’s game over”.

The indie game is a real-time tactical roguelite, featuring intelligent unit controls, procedurally generated islands and unlockable upgrades. The game has a distinct art style, and combined with its isometric perspective, looks striking in its presentation.

Bad North is the debut title from the Swedish indie company ‘Plausible Concept’, and received generally favourable reviews when it released back in 2018. The game was praised for its engaging gameplay and having an enjoyable core experience, but was dragged down by its lack of long-term variety.

Bad North is currently available to download for free until the 29th of November, when it will be replaced by the much-adored ‘Rayman Legends’.
