Below, you'll find some of the best PC parts and accessories for gamers that you can get at a discount right now-though I've also snuck in some pre-built desktops if you'd rather someone else do the work for you.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Super isn't technically the best GPU Nvidia makes, but it's more than enough for most gamers. This OC model from PNY is one of the cheaper options available right now and includes three fans and some fancy lighting.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070: $559 (was $629) at Amazon
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 might technically be mid-range, but it's still roughly equivalent to the last-gen RTX 3080, meaning it feels like a top-end card. This OC model from Zotac has two fans and some RGB lighting.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti: $369 (was $399) at Amazon
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti offers some light improvements over its entry-level cousin, with more CUDA and ray-tracing cores as well as higher clock speeds. This model from PNY has 8GB VRAM and two fans.
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX: $869 (was $999) at Amazon
AMD's Radeon series of GPUs offers comparable performance to Nvidia's at what is usually a discount, although it might differ from game to game. This RX 7900 XTX from XFX represents the top-of-the-line for AMD's gaming CPUs and has three fans.
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT: $649 (was $699) at Newegg
One step down from the XTX is the XT, which eats up slightly less power at the cost of slightly reduced performance. It's still a top-end card, despite the much lower price point. This model comes with three fans and light RGB.
AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT: $469 (was $519) at Amazon
The RX 7800 XT is towards the higher-end of AMD's mid-range, being a competitor to the RTX 4070. This model from XFX has three fans.
AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT: $369 (was $399) at Newegg
The RX 7700 XT is the true middle-of-the-road for AMD, focused on gaming at resolutions of 1440p and 1080p. This model from PowerColor has three fans.

SEE 4 MORE AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D: $459 (was $699) at Amazon
This is currently AMD's top-of-the-line consumer CPU, coming with special technology that efficiently packs in more computing than most competitors. It's probably overkill for most, but Prime Day makes it surprisingly affordable.
AMD Ryzen 9 7900X: $342 (was $549) at Amazon
The 7900X is a better pick for most people, but is still oriented towards those who need a lot of productivity power. Prime Day means there's not much of a delta between it and its upgrade.
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D: $385 (was $449) at Amazon
The 7800X3D is a more gaming-oriented chip, and even includes the same efficiency technology as the 7950X3D. It's still less powerful than a Ryzen 9 chip, but it's a great pick for choosy gamers.
AMD Ryzen 7 7700X: $244 (was $399) at Amazon
The Ryzen 7 7700X is a perfect middle-of-the-road option, and will likely serve most gamers just fine, especially in GPU-centric games.
Intel Core i9-14900KF: $548 (was 619) at Amazon
Intel's current top-of-the-line, whether you'll want this model depends on your preference over AMD. They have their pros and cons from program to program, but are roughly equivalent in performance. You'll need a GPU for this one, although the K model comes with integrated graphics.
Intel Core i7-14700KF: $349 (was $434) at Amazon
This chip is more of a mid-ranger, and is probably the best Intel pick for most people. Like the Core i9 option, you'll need to pick the K model for integrated graphics.
Intel Core i7-13700KF: $266 (was $429) at Newegg with promo code FTT253
Intel's lower-end current-generation chips are a little light on sales right now, so why not opt for a mid-range last-generation chip instead? This model doesn't include integrated graphics, but the K model is on sale separately at Amazon.
