I’ve been keeping my eye on gaming PC deals pretty religiously for the last couple of years, and doubly so during sales events like Prime Day. We’re living through a global memory shortage right now, of course, so things aren’t exactly peachy out there, but there are still some discounted pre-built systems worth checking out if you’re in the market for an upgrade.
I’m keeping a big list of all the best Amazon Prime Day gaming PC deals I spot over in a dedicated hub, but here I’ve pulled out the six best I’ve been able to find. These cover the four main price ranges people will be budgeting for: sub-$1,000, sub-$1,500, sub-$2,000, and $2,000+.

For my money, I’d say the best bang for your buck is with that RX 9070 XT gaming PC, as I’ve made the case for elsewhere. But if you’d rather a PC with an Nvidia GPU, or are just targeting a different price bracket, any of the other options below are great picks, depending on your budget and use case.
Anyways, without further ado…

This is about as entry-level as I’d go before considering ditching the discrete GPU altogether for a cheaper build with a good iGPU. That’s primarily because you’re only getting 16 GB of DDR4 RAM here. But for this price, it’s fantastic value and a great entry into PC gaming.

If you’re looking for a mid-range gaming PC that’s a bit more on the budget side, I’d say this is a good shout. That’s primarily because you’re getting an RTX 5060 Ti with the full 16 GB of VRAM, meaning you should be set on the video memory front for any game in the foreseeable future.

This gaming PC has definitely got the coolness factor—and I’m not just talking about Thermaltake’s track record when it comes to managing airflow. Inside the crisp white case, you’ll spy not just an RTX 5070 but also a budget Intel Core i5 14400F CPU which offers plenty of bang for your buck.

You can find an RX 9070 XT gaming PC for a little cheaper than this, however here you’re not only getting 32 GB of DDR5 RAM, but also a 9800X3D. That’s the best gaming CPU currently on the market, so there shouldn’t be any bottlenecking going on here, even in CPU-intensive games.

There’s little more I need to do than point at the GPU and the price tag, here. I don’t think we’ve seen a decent RTX 5080 gaming PC for this price—or possibly any RTX 5080 gaming PC—for quite some time. Sure, you’re not getting the fastest CPU, so it’s perhaps not for those of you that like really CPU-intensive games, but for everyone else this is great value at the high-end.d
Key specs: Core Ultra 5 250KF | RTX 5080 | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TBView Deal
This not only comes with the second-fastest graphics card on the market, the RTX 5080, but also the best CPU for gaming, the Ryzen 7 9800XD. Of course it’s not a cheap rig, but given you’re getting top-tier components for truly top-end performance, it’s a great rig with tons of longevity.
