It's Black Friday proper and the deals are… well, kinda the same as they've been all week if I'm being perfectly honest. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing as there have been some excellent discounts doing the rounds including some great prices on PC Gamer's favorite products, too.
I'm going to be pointing to different trends and showing what deals are worth your while, and maybe even which ones you really ought to avoid.

This is a great discount on the best RTX 4080 laptop I've tested and is even lower than it was on Prime Day.
