A FYI to anyone looking...but also...are any of these a good deal?

Recently got a Costco gift card so wanting to splurge on a PC/Laptop. This would be my first gaming laptop, but also would like to start streaming and editing videos! Which of these would be able to handle streaming & gaming at the same time?

Hi there, I'm still new to having a membership so I haven't been around for holiday deals or black Friday. Does Costco ever have sales on their PCs around the holidays? I'm needing to buy a new gaming PC but want to do it at the right time. Thanks all

Both Bestbuy and Amazon have some honestly great deals this year. Here are some I found:

CyberPowerPC (i5-13400F + RTX 5060) - very affordable 5060 prebuilt

Lenovo Legion Tower 5 (R7 7800x3D + RTX 5070) - great value and they'll definitely run out of stock soon

Alienware Aurora (Ultra 9 285 + RTX 5080) - this seems like amazing value for a 5080 lol

Thinking about buying a gaming PC, what do you recommend? The MSI linked below will be $1,000 on Black Friday and has 32gb of memory. Budget $1,000-1,200

Hello guys, trying to put together a list of the best budget desktop pc deals worth grabbing this year. i’m mainly looking for anything that’s actually good value and not the usual fake sale stuff. prebuilts, diy parts bundles, refurbs, whatever. if you’ve seen anything that’s legit and under the usual price, drop it here. would also love to know what you’re planning to buy or avoid. let’s make a solid list before everything sells out.

Hi all, I’m looking to get a new PC and I’m super indecisive because I really don’t know what’s a good buy, or what’s worth it or not. My budget is around $900, with room to be increased if completely necessary.

The best thing that I’ve found so far is this by Costco, It’s $850 - CyberPowerPC Gamer Xtreme Gaming Desktop - Intel Core Ultra 5 225F – NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 - Windows 11 Home – 32GB RAM – 2TB SSD.

I don’t know if there’s anything else that compares to it, and if it is possibly the best spec’d out there for its price. I have checked Newegg, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Amazon and haven’t seen anything with similar specs. I am looking for 32 GB Ram like this one has, and also preferably 2 TB. I do enjoy gaming, which is why I’m looking for a good spec. Happy to hear what anyone recommends.

UPDATE: I've rounded up the best deals below, will be updating this regularly:

hey guys, looking to finally upgrade my gaming pc and with black friday and cyber monday coming up i want to know what deals are actually worth grabbing. i mainly play on high settings and need something that can handle new games without slowing down. seen a few deals online but not sure which are legit or just hype. anyone tracking the best prices or know which stores usually have the real discounts?

Hello guys! Here comes Black Friday and I wanted some of your (super appreciated) help. Advanced thanks for all that help. I know this is a matter of usage and purpose but also really for specs and value.

1 is available now the other closer to Black Friday.

Can I get some eyes and opinions on what I believe are 2 great deals.

Which is the better deal? But which is the better computer?

Lenovo IdeaPad 5i 16" Touchscreen 2-in-1 Laptop - Intel Core 7-150U - 1920 x 1200 - Windows 11 Home - 16GB RAM - 1TB SSD - Cosmic Blue Item 1827493 Model 83DU001KUS

VS

Acer Swift Go 16" Touchscreen Laptop - Intel Core Ultra 9-185H - 1920 x 1200 - Windows 11 - 32GB RAM - 1TB SSD Item 1830019 Model SFG16-72T-95LG

I mean 32 gig and Ultra 9 processor seem to make it a no brainer. Especially for the same price. But I’ve been victim to a computer from Costco before with all the right specs. that just was too problematic and ended up being a huge paper weight as soon as the warranty was over. The Lenovo is a 2 in 1 which is nice but I currently have the envy 360 and that’s a feature I really never use. If anything the hinge gave out after a few years so I believe it to be a design flaw from that extra “flexibility”.

Last but not least the Lenovo has a pen, which given, is not a big deal but just a nice little feature to get with 1 of them.

Reviews 4.6 vs 4.3.

Just looking to get an extra laptop for the family. We have a couple older ones now that get shared. I want something that runs Windows and has a larger screen (at least 15 or more). Won't be doing any gaming on it so just for general use web browsing, Office, maybe some photo editing, etc. What is the best bang for the buck on there now?

im not smart enough to build my own pc but its time for an upgrade. with black friday coming is there any places that are doing any deals? i have a 1-2K budget for pc. i just need it for competitive FPS gaming (mostly just cs2) and also streaming. what do you guys reccommend from companies to get a prebuilt from or any specific specs?
