Amazon and Newegg are going head-to-head with Gaming Week sales, so I've plucked out my 5 favorite d

Published on January 01, 0001

I know, I know: 'What the hell's Gaming Week?' Those were my thoughts exactly, because Amazon, at least, doesn't seem to be shouting it from the rooftops. But from today, April 28, 2025, it is, indeed, Gaming Week, which means a chance for us to nab some PC gaming tech for discounted prices. Newegg is also getting in on the action, too, with a dedicated PC Gaming Week event on its store.

I've scoured through various retailers and come up with what I reckon are five worthwhile deals to consider—three from the Bezos bunch and two from Newegg (no-egg jokes today). There's quite a range, too, so hopefully there'll be something here to tickle everyone's fancy across different budgets and use cases.

Corsair K70 Core | RGB | Full-sized | Red linear switches |
This Corsair keyboard is essentially a slightly stripped back version of the more expensive K70 boards, featuring regular (Corsair) Red linear switches and ABS keycaps. It still has nice sound dampening, a dial at the top-right, and a full set of keys including numpad. Oh,and a healthy dollop of RGB lighting. For this price it's well worth a look.

Acer Nitro KG271U | 27-inch | 1440p | 180 Hz | IPS [[link]] |
This Acer monitor is a steal for all you prospective competitive gamers, hitting a high refresh rate and low response time sweet spot (up to 0.5 ms gray-to-gray). The fact it's an IPS panel helps a bunch—usually you're getting VA at this price, which looks nice but can suffer with response times.

Samsung 990 Evo Plus | 1 TB | PCIe 4.0 (plus PCIe 5.0 x2) [[link]] | 7,150 MB/s read | 6,300 MB/s write |
This is about as cheap as you'll get for a [[link]] 1 TB that performs this well. You can safely ignore then PCIe 5.0 capabilities on this thing because that's only over two lanes. But we found it to run pretty well in , if a little lacking in Random 4K performance. With this discount, it's certainly worth a look for a budget build or some cheap extra storage.

Some games take a while to load on mobile, but once they start, the gameplay is smooth and exciting. I hope future updates improve mobile performance, but I still enjoy playing several hours a day.
