Amazon Prime Day PC deals: what to expect
Show more
There will inevitably be lots of desktop PC discounts available on Prime Day, but there are some nuances that any buyer needs to bear in mind before emptying their wallet.
While deals are plentiful, expect to see more deals for PCs with last year’s components – think systems with AMD Ryzen 3000 or Intel 12th Gen processors, or gaming systems with Nvidia GeForce RTX 30-series graphics cards.
That’s no surprise when companies can still charge full price for systems with current-generation parts.
If you find yourself staring at discounted PCs on Prime Day 2023, don’t be disheartened. Those components may have been released last year, but they’re still extremely fast, and often there’s not much difference in speed between this year’s chip and last year’s releases.
Indeed, if you want a PC to handle office tasks, everyday computing or mainstream gaming and esports, then there is virtually no downside to buying a PC with last year’s kit – and you’ll save some money while you’re doing it.
Based on our current research, one brilliant example of this is the CyberPower Gamer Xtreme VR. For $1,170 you can get your hands on a Core i7-12700F processor, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card with 12GB of memory and a 1TB SSD, and that’s the kind of spec that’ll play virtually any current game while handling all of your multi-tasking and content creation workloads.
If you upgraded that spec to the i7-13700F and RTX 4060 you’d be looking at nearer $1,500, so there’s a big saving to be made.
We’re also impressed by the Kamrui AK1 Plus, which is available for $150 with a 40% discount over its original price. This is one of those occasions where it’s worth taking a gamble on a smaller manufacturer, because you’ll get a huge discount on a PC that’s ideal for everyday, basic computing.
If you’re buying on Prime Day, though, there are always some rules to bear in mind to keep yourself safe. Watch out for fake reviews, shop around to see if the same product is available with a bigger discount elsewhere, and check to see if you can get any credits or free extras with your product of choice.
Amazon Prime Day Desktop PC deals: FAQs
Will I need an Amazon Prime subscription to get Prime Day desktop PC deals?
As the name suggests, you will need to be an Amazon Prime member to take advantage of those tasty Prime Day Desktop PC deals. But don’t fret if you don’t want to spend more money – if you’ve not been a Prime member in the last year, you can sign up for a free thirty-day trial of Amazon Prime.
How do I become an Amazon Prime member?
You need to be an Amazon Prime member in order to get access to Prime Day deals, which costs $14.99 per month or $139 for a year.
However, new subscribers can take advantage of the 30-day Amazon Prime free trial to buy the deals. You can only use this if you've never been a member before, so it won't be available if you've used it already or if you've signed up for Amazon Prime in the past.
While on the free trial, you get all the other membership benefits including free shipping, access to Prime Video and much more. Do read our Amazon Prime review for full coverage of what you get as part of a membership. That can help you decide if you want to cancel Amazon Prime once your free trial has ended to avoid being charged the monthly fee.
Which desktop PCs will be discounted on Prime Day?
Desktop PCs are popular – but they’re always fighting laptops for relevance. When those two factors collide, it means big discounts. That’s good news for buyers, and we expect PCs from brands like Dell, Lenovo, Acer, Asus, Microsoft and HP and well-known, US and UK expert builders like CyberPowerPC, OriginPC, Medion and Digital Storm to be available with relatively modest discounts on Prime Day 2023. We also anticipate bigger discounts from smaller companies that combat weak brand recognition with bigger price drops.
When is Prime Day 2024?
Prime Day 2024 runs from 16 - 17 July, as revealed in a press release from Amazon. The shopping event starts at midnight on 16 July, and ends at 23:59 on 17 July.
