Though Black Friday deals have been going up left, right, and centre, this is very much only the peak of the rollercoaster—we've still got massive drops ahead. So, as this isn't our first loop-de-loop, we've been keeping our eyes peeled. Among the usual suspects of retailers raising their prices in anticipation of making a big show of cutting them down to size this week, we've spotted some deals worth screaming about.
If you hit the eject button on winter sales early this year, you may not have to miss out on all of the savings. Specifically, if you've already snapped up something earlier this month (in other words, before November 20) from either Newegg or Best Buy, now might be the time to review each respective retailer's Black Friday price promise policy. Both Newegg and Best Buy handle it in different ways, so take a look at our detailed breakdown here.
Alright, back to the here, the now, and that rapidly approaching drop. We've been digging through PC gaming deals for a long time now; we know the difference between a yawn-worthy deal touting mere pennies off, and a price cut that's worth a little commotion.
Indeed, the time for words has now long since passed. Without further ado, below are my top ten Black Friday picks out of all the deals we've found so far this week. Let's have it!
1. Yeyian Phoenix Glass | Core i7-13700F | Nvidia RTX 4080 Super | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD | $2,499.99 $1,899.99 at Newegg (save $600)
Ah Yeyian, you do know how to treat us well. What we have here is a bona fide high-end bargain, featuring the best graphics card on the market barring the ridiculously expensive RTX 4090: the RTX 4080 Super. Its i7 CPU and 32 GB of very snappy DDR5 RAM won't go amiss, either, although you should ensure you have the latest BIOS to prevent any voltage issues. For $1,900 this Phoenix Glass gaming PC is a steal.
2. Corsair TC100 | Fabric | $249.99$179.99 at Amazon (save $70)
