If I was handed $500 to spend on Black Friday gaming deals, here's what I'd buy

pcgamer.com:

It's rough to search for PC swagger on a budget—even on Black Friday. We've got some killer Black Friday deals, sure, but that doesn't make the spending anxiety any less real, especially when your wallet's thinner than usual. Luckily for you, I've found a couple of great steals for under $500. Don't say uncle Harvey never gave you anything.

First up, you can never underestimate the power of a good gaming monitor—even if it's the last thing you might consider when putting together your build. When you've already shelled out thousands for a top-of-the-line graphics card and a CPU that could pilot a spaceship, it's hard to drop another few hundred bucks on something external.

Fortunately, you can get a great higher-end monitor at Newegg for just shy of $400—or $350 with the promo code: BFCY2Z739. 32 inches, 4K capability, 144Hz and IPS, this thing's a steal for its price, since it's usually a bank-busting $700. If you've already got a good gaming PC, then the Acer Nitro XV322QK is a no-brainer.

This is nothing less than the cheapest gaming monitor we've ever seen that hits that critical combo of 32 inches, 4K, 144Hz and IPS panel tech. Heck, it even throws in USB-C connectivity with 65W of power delivery. What an absolute steal of a deal. Use Promo Code: BFCY2Z739 at NewEgg or hit the checkbox on Amazon for the right price.

But maybe you've already got your gamer cave set up, already? What if you want to slum it on the sofa? You might want to grab a Steam Deck for its current price of $349. «But wait,» I hear you say. «Isn't its SSD just 64GB? That's tiny.» You're right, it is tiny. Even Tekken
