Black Friday gaming PC deals 2024: The best offers still worth buying

Yeyian Yumi | $1,199.99 $699.99 at Newegg
Save $500 - This build is one of our go-to recommendations when checking for some PC deals. For a long time, it was rocking its Prime Day price of $749, but it's just dropped another $50 to bring it to an excellently affordable price. It's now in backorder due to popularity, but it's still worth considering if you're looking for a budget PC.

Specs: Intel Core i5-12400F, Nvidia RTX 4060, 1TB SSD, 16GB of DDR4

Buy it if:

✅ You want modern specs on a budget
✅ You want DDR5 compatibility
✅ 1TB is enough for you

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want DDR5 out of the box
❌ You want to play in 4K max settings

iBUYPOWER Slate 6 Mesh + Assassin's Creed Shadows | $1,199.99 $699.99 at Walmart
Save $500 - Basically a very similar deal to the above. Specs like these are your best value budget rigs. Yet, this just about outclasses it thanks to a smidge better CPU, and that all-important DDR5 as opposed to DDR4. Plus, you can't grumble at getting a copy of Assassin's Creed Shadows to play next February, either.

Specs: Intel Core i5-13600K, Nvidia RTX 4060, 1TB SSD, 16GB of DDR5

Buy it if:

✅ You want to enter the RTX 40-gen on a budget
✅ You want DDR5 out of the box
✅ You'll be buying Assassin's Creed Shadows anyway

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want a better GPU
❌ You want more storage immediately

AOCE Gaming PC | $1,599.99 $758.99 at Newegg
Save $841 - I'm not sure how much stock I'd put in this rig's original price, because for an RTX 4060 build with DDR4 in it, that's a slightly silly price. Still, for budget buyers who want to prioritize more RAM for a DDR4 build, this is good value. The price has just dropped another $20 or so, too.

Specs: Intel Core i5-12400F, Nvidia RTX 4060, 1TB SSD, 32GB of DDR4

Buy it if:

✅ You want a plentiful DDR4 machine
✅ You'd like a smaller chassis
✅ You want a DDR5-ready motherboard

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want DDR5 memory out of the box
❌ You don't need 32GB of RAM

Thermaltake LCGS Quartz i460 R4 | $899.99 $799.99 at Amazon
Save $100 - Packing an RTX 4060 and a 13th Gen processor, this build is nice and futureproofed for the money. Its 1TB of NVMe SSD storage is nothing to sniff at either. Ideally, you'd want to upgrade the RAM to DDR5, since the motherboard will allow for it, but this will do for now.

Specs: Intel Core i5-13400F, Nvidia RTX 4060, 1TB SSD, 16GB of DDR4

Buy it if:

✅ You want an up-to-date processor
✅ You want DDR5 compatibility
✅ DLSS is a big draw

Don't buy it if:

❌ You need faster RAM straight away
❌ You need more storage space

CyberPowerPC Gamer Xtreme | $999.99 $799.99 at Best Buy
Save $200 - If you'd like an even more up-to-date processor and you aren't looking for an all-white build, this is a nice entry-level PC that will be very capable indeed. You also won't need to worry about upgrading the RAM, as it's already DDR5.

Specs: Intel Core i5-14400F, Nvidia RTX 4060, 1TB SSD, 16GB of DDR5

Buy it if:

✅ You want an up-to-date processor
✅ DDR5 is important to you
✅ You're mainly targeting 1080p or 1440p

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want liquid cooling
❌ You want a smaller case

CyberPowerPC Gamer Xtreme | $1,249.99 $1,089.99 at Best Buy
Save $160 - This is another super-charged budget buy. For your money, you get a solid processor, an RTX 4060 Ti, and 2TB of storage. Not bad when the equivalent iBUYPOWER build is usually a bit more expensive.

Specs: Intel Core i7-14700F, Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti, 2TB SSD, 16GB of DDR5

Buy it if:

✅ You want an RTX 4060 Ti
✅ You need the 2TB of space
✅ You want a transparent case to show off RGB components

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want liquid cooling
❌ You want a more powerful GPU

ABS Cyclone Aqua Gaming PC | $1,799.99 $1,109.99 at Newegg
Save $690 - This one has been in - and now back out - of backorder, which speaks to it being a fab deal. With a 14th-generation i7 processor and 4060 Ti GPU combo, the 32GB of DDR5 is a cherry on top making for superb value for what you're getting. While the original price seems overpriced to us, this discounted price makes it a great buy for what you're spending.

Specs: Intel Core i7-14700F, Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti, 1TB SSD, 32GB of DDR5

Buy it if:

✅ You want an up-to-date processor
✅ You want lots of RAM
✅ You're okay with air cooling

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want to play city builders at 4K max settings

HP Omen 25L | $1,499.99 $999.99 at HP
Save $500 - For this price, you might expect to see a 4060 Ti or even 4070 GPU, but it's the processor driving the value here, with a 14th Gen i7 adding some versatility. If you can juggle an upgrade down the line, this is a solid get for the long-run, especially given that HP has already cut an extra $180 off the prices we've seen for this so far this week.

Specs: Intel Core i7-14700F, Nvidia RTX 4060, 1TB SSD, 16GB of DDR5

Buy it if:

✅ You'd like great RAM and storage components
✅ You need a great CPU
✅ You have a white setup

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want more GPU for the money

Acer Nitro 60 Gaming PC | $1,949 $1,549.99 at Walmart
Save $399 - Like above, this features the rather good RTX 4070 Super, but for just a smidge more money you get a more recent and more powerful CPU, twice the DDR5 RAM, and twice the SSD storage.

Specs: Intel Core i7-14700F, Nvidia RTX 4070 Super, 2TB SSD, 32GB of DDR5

Buy it if:

✅ You want fantastic 1440p performance or very good 4K
✅ You want a quick CPU for multiple processes
✅ Don't want to worry about SSD and RAM

Don't buy it if:

❌ You prefer AMD CPUs to Intel
❌ You'd rather push your GPU up to an RTX 4070 Ti Super or further

ABS Kaze Ruby | $2,399.99 $1,949.99 at Newegg
Save $450 - Like a lot of Newegg's best deals this season, it's already on Backorder meaning you can buy but won't be guaranteed stock. Still, you get an awful lot for your money here. An RTX 4080 Super build rarely drops below $2,000, but throw in one of the year's best games in the form of Space Marine 2 for no extra cost? Lovely stuff. The RTX 4080 Super is a massive step up from the RTX 4070 Super.

Specs: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Super, AMD Ryzen 7 7700X, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD, ABS 1000W Gold PSU, MSI B650-VC V2 DDR5 Motherboard

Buy it if:

✅ You want top-drawer gaming power
✅ You're okay with air-cooling
✅ You haven't bought Space Marine 2 yet

Don't buy it if:

❌ You'd rather wait for the RTX 50 Series
❌ You don't have a 4K setup

Corsair Vengeance i7400 Gaming PC | $2,299.99 $1,899.99 at Amazon
Save $400 - As far as we're concerned, deals on RTX 4070 Ti Super graphics cards can be very good value for money. A big upgrade to the RTX 4070 Super (the naming system is confusing for the 40 series), it's a powerful unit. Plus, this has some great DDR5 RAM, and an excellent CPU. There's a more expensive, slightly fancier model past the $2k mark as well. Buy now, as it's low stock!

Specs: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super, Intel Core i5-13600KF, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD

Buy it if:

✅ The RTX 4070 Ti Super suits your needs
✅ You like buying Corsair parts
✅ Liquid cooling is what you want

Don't buy it if:

❌ You simply must have an RTX 4080
❌ You want more storage out of the box

Skytech King 95 Gaming PC | $2,299.99 $1,979.99 at Newegg
Save $320 - This was one of our favorite deals earlier in the week until it went out of stock... but now it's back! You don't get an RTX 4080 in this high-end build, but the RTX 4070 Ti Super is deceptively a big step up from the RTX 4070 Super. Plus, you get the most recent generation of Ryzen 7 processor. And, if we're honest, this is a gorgeous transparent case with loads of glowing colours (and liquid cooling!).

Specs: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super, AMD Ryzen 7 9700X, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, 2TB SSD, ABS 850W Gold PSU

Buy it if:

✅ You want an up-to-date processor
✅ You like liquid cooling
✅ The RTX 4070 Ti Super is enough for you

Don't buy it if:

❌ You'd rather pay this much and get an RTX 4080
❌ You're building a black gaming setup

Origin Chronos V3 | $2,899.99 $2,299.99 at Amazon
Save $600 - You can get a slight upgrade in specs at this price point on Black Friday with other gaming PC deals, but the Origin Chronos V3 has one big advantage: its form factor. This is a lot of power crammed into a slick mini-ITX case, and it comes complete with customizable RGB lighting. It seems especially well-suited to a console-like living-room setup.

Specs: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super, Intel Core i9 14700K, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, 1TB M.2 SSD

Buy it if:

✅ You want big power but don't have much space
✅ You want a gaming PC that can fit into your living room setup
✅ Customizable RGB lighting is a siren song for you

Don't buy it if:

❌ The form factor doesn't matter to you
❌ You want an easier time getting inside the case to upgrade parts

Cobratype Mamba Gaming PC | $2,799.99 $2,349.99 at Newegg
Save $450 - This is a little pricier than other 4080 Super builds we're seeing for Black Friday, but you pay extra for the live thermal monitoring features which will let you keep a laser-focused eye on your temperatures. It's also a blissfully powerful gaming rig.

Specs: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RTX 4080 Super, 2TB SSD, 64GB of DDR5 RAM

Buy it if:

✅ You're obsessed with your PC's temperatures
✅ You want a white build
✅ You're gunning for 4K

Don't buy it if:

❌ You just want an affordable 4080 build
❌ You don't think the temperature monitoring features are worth it

AVGPC FrostFire Creator Series | $2,799.99 $2,599.99 at Newegg
Save $200 - It's back in stock! Specs-wise, there isn't much that separates this from the other high-end rigs we've spotted thus far, but this is another white option that might suit the content creators out there better thanks to the 64GB of DDR5.

Specs: Nvidia RTX 4080 Super, AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 2TB SSD, 64GB of DDR5 RAM

Buy it if:

✅ You're a content creator
✅ You want an all-in-one powerhouse
✅ You play and create in 4K

Don't buy it if:

❌ You wouldn't use the RAM
❌ You aren't bothered by the color of case

AVGPC FrostFire Creator Series | $3,227 $2,687 at Maingear
Save $540 - It's tough to imagine a better list of gaming specs than this. The pairing of an RTX 4080 Super and Ryzen 7 9800X3D is tough to beat, and the MG-1 puts a lot of horsepower in an attractive, easily upgradable package. The only caveats here are that you'll fill up that 2TB SSD pretty fast with modern game installs, and 4K content creators might want more RAM.

Specs: Nvidia RTX 4080 Super, AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 2TB SSD, 32GB of DDR5 RAM

Buy it if:

✅ You want a top-of-the-line, no-fuss gaming PC
✅ You don't need extra RAM and storage
✅ You play in 4K

Don't buy it if:

❌ You're at all budget-conscious
❌ You want roomy SSD space right out of the box
