Best Memorial Day PC gaming deals in 2025

1. HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless | 50 mm drivers | 15-21,000 Hz | Closed-back | Wireless | we reviewed it the only major negative we could find was a slightly uninspiring microphone. Absolutely worth a serious look this one, at any level of discount.

2. MSI Vector 16 HX AI | RTX 5080 | Core Ultra 9 275 HX | 16-inch | 1600p | 240 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD | $2,499.99 at Best Buy
I know, I know, it's a lot of cash. But the truth is, it's difficult to find RTX 50-series laptops for anything less than silly money right now, and this one's got the big boi RTX 5080 for a just about reasonable sum. Our Dave has been playing with this particular model recently and likes the value proposition you get when you take into that mega GPU, although it is a bit of a hairdryer on full whack. Still, stick it in Balanced mode and the noise is much more reasonable, and it still performs about as well as the other RTX 5080 machines we've tested. Which is to say, very well indeed.

3. Acer Nitro ED270U | 27-inch | 1440p | 170 Hz | VA | $249.99 $169.99 at Newegg (save $80)
This is a respectable brand and a respectable spec, although it might be worth holding out for an IPS . Still, a good price on a great little screen and more than enough for a mid-range rig to get some lovely sights.

4. Yeyian Yumi | Core i5 12400F | RTX 4060 | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD | $849.99 at Newegg
If you can't stretch to an RTX 4060 Ti build, an RTX 4060 one such as this Yeyian rig should serve you well in a pinch as an entry-level gaming PC. You're getting DDR5 RAM, a decent entry-level Core i5, and a GPU that should handle most games at 1440p with some frame gen and upscaling magic enabled.

5. Lenovo Legion Go | Z1 Extreme | 8.8-inch screen | 16 GB RAM | 512 GB SSD | $699.99 $599.99 at Amazon
The Legion Go is one of the more polished handhelds on the market, with a sleek 8.8-inch screen and detachable controllers. That screen is a little overkill for the lil' AMD chip inside this machine, the Z1 Extreme also found in the ROG Ally, but it's great for playing indies on while relaxing. One of the controllers also becomes a mouse if you need it, which is a bit of a gimmick but works pretty well. The main downside here is the small SSD, but it's a pretty easy upgrade later on.

For anyone looking for a cheap, spacious drive offering serious performance, this is a genuinely brilliant SSD for the money. Our review of the 4 TB version clearly shows just how good it is.

7. HP Victus 16 | RTX 4070 | Ryzen 7 8845HS | 16-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD | $1,119 at Amazon
You know what I hate? Gaming laptops with just 512 GB SSDs. A 1 TB SSD is not an expensive thing, so why do manufacturers still persist with so little storage? Thankfully, laptops like this HP Victus with a paucity of SSD space also come with a second SSD slot in the back. That makes it a super-easy upgrade when you run out of space, without having to replace your OS or anything. Likewise, the Victus 16 uses standard SODIMM for memory so you can upgrade the 16 GB RAM down the line, too. The 120 W RTX 4070 is one you won't have to rush out and upgrade, however, as it's a quality GPU at this price, and so is that AMD processor, too. In fact, it comes with the 780M integrated graphics that run most handhelds, so you can get some good gaming battery life by switching off the Nvidia GPU when you're away from the plug.

8. MSI MAG 341CQP | 34-inch | 3440 x 1440 | 175 Hz | QD-OLED | Curved | $779.99 $699.99 at Amazon (save $80)
OLED gaming still isn't as affordable as we'd like. But it's getting there. This 34-inch ultrawide QD-OLED beast is still a good deal at this price, however. The 175 Hz refresh is a tiny bit pedestrian, but it's plenty fast enough for us and in all other regards, this is the full OLED experience, including 0.03 ms response and serious HDR sizzle.

9. Silicon Power UD90 | 2 TB | NVMe | PCIe 4.0 | 5,000 MB/s read | 4,800 MB/s write | $119.97 $95.97 at B&H Photo (save $24)
You might not know Silicon Power from Samsung, but this SSD is well-received by our friends at Tom's Hardware. It offers plenty of speed for a Steam library expansion but with a meager cost per gigabyte of just four cents. It's not the fastest SSD out there, though.

iBuyPower has its own deals going down for Memorial Day, but there aren't any RX 9070 XT machines on its own site to rival the rig on sale at Newegg right now. This is a mighty all-AMD gaming PC, rocking last generation's outright best gaming U alongside one of the best mid-range GPUs of the current crop. Not only that, but you're also getting a healthy amount of DDR5 memory, and a just-about-good-enough amount of SSD storage space.

Intel's new Battlemage chip is only a fraction slower than its last-gen Arc A770, but it's too expensive and too close in price to the B580. It's also worth noting that the drivers still need work, as some games don't like the new architecture. When it's all working fine, you're getting a lot of GPU for the money, though the price is well over its MSRP.

You'll be better off saving a bit more money and waiting for a cheap 16 GB model, though. It won't really be any faster, but the extra VRAM is worth having when games start to demand more memory.

While the specs suggest it should only be a little faster than the 4060 Ti, the use of super-speedy GDDR7 gives the little Blackwell GPU a healthy boost. It's not worth buying if you already have an RTX 40-series card, but it's a decent upgrade if you have a much older GPU. Just wait until you can get one at a more sensible price.

At this price, it's absolutely not worth buying one, but if it does become cheaper, then the new FSR 4 upscaling tech is the main reason why you'd pick one up.

Yes, it's almost $400 over Nvidia's MSRP for the RTX 5080. That's just how things are at the moment. It's arguably not worth the money, either, as the RTX 5080 isn't that much faster than the RTX 4080 it replaces. You do get the full DLSS 4 suite, including Multi Frame Generation, but you're really better off waiting until prices become more sensible.

Zhic gaming PC | Ryzen 5 5600G | 16 GB DDR4-3200 | 1 TB SSD | $599 $469.89 at Walmart (save $129.11)
This is a really good starter PC. The Ryzen 5 5600G's Vega GPU isn't going to get you playing the latest games at high resolutions on its own, but for some lite 720p gaming it should do fine. The main goal here, though, is to have a base that you can upgrade from with a proper discrete GPU down the line. Slap an RTX 4060 or RTX 4060 Ti in there and you've got a fine gaming PC without spending a fortune, and you just need a screwdriver and the will to make it happen.

Entry-level RTX 40-series graphics cards are still hanging in there, even after the advent of the RTX 50 series. That's primarily because of builds like this one, which offer a pretty stellar all-round package for under $1,000. Sure, it only has 16 GB of RAM, and it's DDR4 at that, but for a budget build you can get by with that, though upgrading to 32 GB of DDR4 might be worth it down the line. With this Thermaltake gaming PC, you're getting a solid entry into modern 1440p gaming, provided you're alright enabling a little of that Frame Gen magic.

We're now properly in the swing of the current GPU generation, and you can tell because we're finally seeing some current-gen entry-level builds that aren't sitting at astronomical prices. This Cobratype RTX 5060 Ti gaming PC is not only rocking a current-gen GPU capable of the latest Multi Frame Gen tech, but also comes with a decent six-core AMD U and 32 GB of RAM. You'll probably want to add another terabyte of storage before too long, though.

Buying an RTX 5070 on its own can be expensive, but as part of a discounted pre-built like this it's pretty reasonable. If you can stretch your budget a little, it'll be better to opt for something with more RAM, storage, and a current-gen U, but if you want that Multi Frame Gen magic for as cheap as possible, this Skytech build will get you there.

This Cobratype build features the RX 9070 XT, which runs pretty neck-and-neck with the RTX 5070 Ti. Combined with 32 GB of RAM and a mid-range 9000-series U, it makes for a PC that's a great choice for modern high-end gaming for well under $2,000.

The RTX 5070 and RX 9070 are great for 1440p gaming, but if you want to take it to that next level and truly enter the high end, a RTX 5070 Ti or RX 9070 XT is what you want.

If you're looking for a great all-round, high-end, current-gen Nvidia build, I'd say this is it. The RTX 5070 Ti is a great overclocker and can get you close to RTX 5080 performance, so combined with 32 GB of fast RAM, 2 TB of storage, and a current-gen 8-core U, you're getting a solid build here for well under $2,500.

Let's be upfront about this—8 GB of RAM is not enough in 2025. But when you're talking about a gaming notebook that costs around $600, with a half-decent RTX 40-series GPU inside it, I can swallow it. Especially when you can easily upgrade the RAM with just a wee screwdriver in hand. And 16 GB of fast dual-channel DDR5 is just $50-odd right now. The RTX 4050 is just a 75 W variant, so not the outright fastest, but will still definitely do the job at 1080p. For this sorta money, that's all you can ask.

Even with new Nvidia laptop GPUs on the way, it'll probably be a while before we see a truly budget mobile RTX 50-series.

Still, it's the easiest thing to upgrade in a mobile machine, and at this price it's very difficult to find more gaming laptop for your buck—and likely will be for a while yet, too.

There are precious few all-AMD gaming laptops out there, largely because AMD made precious few actual laptop GPUs. The RX 7700S is one, and it's a decent pixel-pusher, but with the usual Radeon caveats, i.e. no Frame Gen fun, and some difficulty with heavily ray-traced games, such as Cyberpunk 2077. Other than that it will often beat a high-powered RTX 4060. This machine also has a great ing spec alongside the Radeon GPU and the eight-core Ryzen U.

That makes it a super-easy upgrade when you run out of space, without having to replace your OS or anything. Likewise, the Victus 16 uses standard SODIMM for memory so you can upgrade the 16 GB RAM down the line, too. The 120 W RTX 4070 is one you won't have to rush out and upgrade, however, as it's a quality GPU at this price, and so is that AMD processor, too. In fact, it comes with the 780M integrated graphics that run most handhelds, so you can get some good gaming battery life by switching off the Nvidia GPU when you're away from the plug.

You're also getting a full 1 TB SSD alongside your 16 GB of soldered memory (no upgrades happening there) and a decent Meteor Lake U at its heart. It's one of Intel's more efficient chips, with six Performance and eight Efficient cores, which ought to help with the battery life of this portable machine.

I was a huge fan of the Asus 14-incher when I first reviewed it last year and while I'd hoped it's price would come down more in the intervening time (it's quite pricey for an RTX 4060 machine) I still love the form factor and the fact it's got the best mobile U inside it. It means you can actually turn off the discrete GPU and still game on the integrated chip saving battery when you're on the go. It's the same processor as in the best handhelds, but it's also a quality computing chip in its own right. And with this spec it's backed up with 32 GB RAM and a hefty 2 TB SSD, too.

I've used the new Vector 16 HX AI for weeks, and have been hugely impressed with the RTX 5080 version, and I've no doubt the RTX 5070 Ti system will be as effective. The 1200p IPS screen is a good match for the GPU and U, which is of 20-core Intel stock. But, ack, another 512 GB SSD. Why?! Thankfully there are two M.2 slots in the system, making it an easy and cheap upgrade down the line.

I know, I know, it's a lot of cash. But the truth is, it's difficult to find RTX 50-series laptops for anything less than silly money right now, and this one's got the big boi RTX 5080 for a just about reasonable sum. Our Dave has been playing with this particular model recently and likes the value proposition you get when you take into that mega GPU, although it is a bit of a hairdryer on full whack. Still, stick it in Balanced mode and the noise is much more reasonable, and it still performs about as well as the other RTX 5080 machines we've tested. Which is to say, very well indeed.

Ignore the tiny 'saving' and just focus on the fact you're getting 4 TB of our favorite gaming SSD (check out our review) for a reasonable price. If 4 TB still isn't enough for you, then there's the 8 TB version of the SN850X, but at $600, it's more than double the price of two 4 TB drives.

Team Group PD20M | 1 TB | USB 3.2 Gen2x2 | 2,000 MB/s read | 2,000 MB/s write | $69.99 at Newegg
Not all external SSDs need to be big and bulky. This Team Group PD20M is just 40 g in weight and 8.2 mm thick, making it very portable. It's also MagSafe-compatible so you can attach it to the back of an iPhone and extend its storage, with an appropriate cable. As with all fast external SSDs, you'll need a USB 3.2 Gen2x2 (20 Gbps) port to get the full speed.

Crucial X9 Pro | 2 TB | USB 3.2 Gen2 | Up to 1,050 MB/s read and write | $169.99 $129.99 at Amazon (save $40)
Crucial is a big name in SSDs, and the Micron-owned brand is offering a small saving on this 2 TB external model. The drive comes in an anodized aluminium shell with a rubberized base and is just 65 x 50 mm big. There's an integrated lanyard hole too, if you want to wear it, which hides a drive activity light.

Samsung T7 Shield | 4 TB | USB 3.2 Gen2 | Up to 1,050 MB/s read and write | $499.99 $275.26 at Amazon (save $224.73)
You might think this is a lot of money for an external SSD, and you'd be right. But that's not to say it's a bad deal. In fact, it's one of the best deals in this list, at around $0.06 per gigabyte. You're paying less, for more. Now I sound like Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang... "the more you buy, the more you save."

Logitech G503 | Wireless | 250 Hrs | Up to 12,000 DPI | 400 IPS | 99 g | $49.99 $32.99 at Newegg (save $17)
This is the most colorful version of our favorite budget wireless gaming mouse, and at $33 it's a bit of a steal. It's impressively light, has a great battery life off its single AA battery, and has an excellent Logitech Hero sensor at its heart. Personally, I'm into this blue colorway, and I don't mind if the black and white versions are $40 instead. If you prefer the mint, however, that's available for just over $33 at Amazon.

Logitech G502X | Wired | Up to 25,600 DPI | 400 IPS | 89 g | $99.99 $52 at Walmart (save $47.99)
This is our favorite wired gaming mouse right now, and comes in at a very affordable price tag over these sales periods. It's rocking the mighty Logitech Hero 25K optical sensor, which is a super accurate, precise bit of squeaker tech. The look of the thing is iconic, and the design makes it a seriously comfortable... though only for right-handers. It's also a pretty lightweight mouse, too, though does come with additional weights if you want a more solid feel.

If you're after a wireless gaming mouse that's been shown to be up for anything, look no further than the G Pro Wireless. It's an oldie now, and no longer Logitech's lightest mouse, but it's still pretty lightweight, and comes with plenty of extras you don't get on the newer Superlight models, such as being fully ambidextrous.

Look, I get it, not everyone loves the clickety clack or satisfying thock of a mechanical keyboard, and we won't judge here. And you can get yourself our pick as the best membrane keyboard for a decent price right now. It's softer, quieter, but still suprisingly tactile for a membrane switch board.

If you're in need of a budget wireless gaming headset, it's hard to say no to the Stealth 500, with a new and comfortable headband, solid connectivity, a quick charge, and nice on-ear controls. It takes a hit in some areas (like build quality and bass) to get to that price point. For 20% off, it's a bit of a steal.
