Save $370 - This build from Yeyian over at Newegg is one of my favorite offers from October's Prime Day event, but it's come back in stock even cheaper than it was previously. This is an Intel Core i5 12400F + RTX 4060 gaming PC that checks all the boxes if you want something capable of 1080p and 1440p gaming. Annoyingly, it isn't a DDR4 machine out of the box, but the motherboard is compatible if you want to upgrade later.

Buy it if: 

✅ You want a substantial build for an entry-level price
✅ You'll make use of a free keyboard lumped into the purchase

Don't buy it if:

CyberPowerPC Gamer Xtreme | $1,049.99 $849 at Best Buy
Save $200 - You only saved $70 here during Prime Day, but it's great to see 13th gen builds with a 4060 inside them this far under a grand. Either way, a 13th Gen i5 (even without the unlocked multiplier or integrated graphics) will set you on the right path, and a 4060's DLSS will have you covered for plenty of modern games. 

Buy it if: 

✅ You can't afford beefier specs
✅ You want DDR5
✅ You want a solid gaming PC for under a grand 

Don't buy it if: 

❌ You predominantly want to play in 4K

CyberPowerPC Gamer Master Gaming Desktop | $1,099 $899.99 at Best Buy
Save $200 - Inside this CyberPowerPC you'll get an AMD Ryzen 5 7600 CPU, 16GB of DDR5, an RTX 4060, and 2TB worth of SSD storage. All that isn't bad at all for under $1,000, especially when you square this up against bigger brand names around this price at the moment.

Buy it if: 

✅ You need 2TB of storage
✅ You want a 4060 rig
✅ You're okay with a budget brand 

Don't buy it if: 

❌ You don't want to be reliant on DLSS

Lenovo Legion Tower 5 | $1,249.99 $999.99 at Best Buy
Save $250 - For a named brand, this is a pretty great deal. Inside you'll find an AMD Ryzen 5 7600, 16GB of DDR5, and an RTX 3060 GPU. The only real downside for this price is that you'll only get 512GB of SSD storage, with no HDD to back it up. If you go for this deal, it might pay to keep an eye out for SSD deals closer to Black Friday.

Buy it if: 

✅ You want a futureproofed build for the money
✅ You'll mainly game in 1080p and 1440p
Don't buy it if: 

❌ You want more storage from the word go

HP Omen 40L | $1,599.99 $999.99 at HP
Save $500 - Not only is this a cracking gaming PC, but the real reason I'd argue it's solid value for money is not just because of its specs. Rather, the individual components in it form an all-star cast. You get Kingston Fury DDR5 RAM, a WD Black SSD, and an Nvidia RTX 3060 with a 13th Gen Intel Core i5 processor. You also save $100 more than you did on this two weeks ago, so it's the right time to buy.

Buy it if: 

✅ You want big brand components for the money
✅ You want DDR5 RAM

Don't buy it if: 

❌ You can afford a better GPU

MSI Aegis Gaming Desktop | $1,599 $1,199 at Amazon
Save $400 - Considering some 3060 builds can still be seen for this much, this MSI rig is solid value for money. Inside you have a 13th gen Intel Core i7, 32GB of DDR5, a 2TB SSD, and an RTX 4060 Ti. You don't get the unlocked CPU multiplier or integrated graphics, but I'd be willing to give this a try - I doubt you'd struggle with a 13th Gen i7 even without those perks.

Buy it if: 

✅ You want new-gen specs
✅ You don't need integrated graphics
✅ You don't mind it being on backorder

Don't buy it if: 

❌ You'll need integrated graphics

iBUYPOWER Y60 Gaming Desktop | $1,499.99 $1,199.99 at Best Buy
Save $300 - Inside this roomy and beautiful case, you'll get an AMD Ryzen 7 7700X CPU, 32GB of DDR5, an RTX 4060 Ti, as well as a 2TB SSD.  There also appears to be a Game Pass trial included. According to the retailer, this one is out of stock, but the deal is still live, so either you can back-order it or it should be back in stock soon.

Buy it if: 

✅ You want a great mid-range PC
✅ You like transparent cases
✅ You want a Game Pass trial 

Don't buy it if: 

❌ You don't need this kind of power
❌ You want more power for the money

Save $222 - This PC from Skytech is on offer at Newegg, and not only does it have my personal favorite 40 Series GPU inside it, but you get a free copy of Alan Wake 2 with your purchase. This is pretty much the ideal price I was hoping for when it came to 4070 PCs this Black Friday. This might disappear quickly, so don't wait too long. Also inside is 32GB of DDR5, 1TB of SSD, and an Intel Core i5-13400F.

Buy it if: 

✅ You want a great mid-range GPU
✅ You want to play Alan Wake 2

❌ You need integrated graphics

Save $70 - Newegg has managed to outpace Amazon with this deal, giving you a saving of $70 on a GPU that only launched earlier in the year. That places a considerable distance between this price and the RTX 4070's $599.99 MSRP. You'll even get a free copy of Alan Wake 2 just for good measure!

Save £450 - For anyone looking for a budget PC for some light gaming on a second machine, or for something they can use for work and productivity, this IdeaCentre PC is a bit of a steal.

AWD-IT Mesh Ryzen Gaming PC | £899.99 £649 at AWD-IT
Save £250 - This deal is a bit ridiculous, in fairness, and is by far the cheapest RTX 4060 build I've ever come across. For budget buyers looking for a fixer-upper they can upgrade as they go, or even just use for 1080p gaming and work, this is unreal. Inside you'll get an RTX 4060, an AMD Ryzen 5 5500, 16GB of Corsair DDR4 RAM, and, the only catch, is that you get a 480GB SATA SSD. That said, you can upgrade the parts if you'd like - upgrading to a Corsair MP600 1TB drive only takes the price up to £689. That. is. wild. 

Buy it if:

✅ You want a proper gaming PC on a budget
✅ You don't mind a DDR4-locked motherboard

Don't buy it if:

❌ You want more than 1080p performance / 1440p with DLSS

MSI MAG Infinite + Alan Wake 2 | £1,899 £1,599 at Currys
Save £300 - Alright, so with the Nvidia GPU in this build, there's the option to get a free copy of Alan Wake 2 with your purchase. Even without the free game, this would be a great offer, since the rig houses an Intel Core i7-13700F, an RTX 4070, 16GB of DDR5, and a 1TB SSD. Need I say more, or does the £300 saving say enough?

Buy it if:

✅ You want a Game Pass machine as cheap as they come
✅ You don't mind a refurbished console

Don't buy it if:

❌ You will want to play physical discs
