The Best Amazon Prime Day 2024 Deals on Laptops, PCs, & Monitors
The only thing better than having one Prime Day event in a year is having 2 major ones. Shoppers who can’t wait for Black Friday can grab some great gifts, or in many cases simply better bargains at prices that have not been seen before.
As always, for users looking to benefit from the ongoing Prime Big Deal Days event, having an active Amazon Prime subscription helps as it qualifies them for Prime-only deals, discounts, faster and free shipping, and much more across the board.
With over 180 million Prime subscribers in the US alone out of a 200+ million subscriber base worldwide, Amazon Prime offers arguably superior value for money, premium logistics, and access to deals that would not be possible without Amazon’s infrastructure, e-commerce channels, and ability to sell everything under a single roof.

The Best Gaming PC Builds For $1000
Building a gaming PC individually just became easier as Game Rant showcases three of the best and most balanced PC builds.
Prime Day Gaming PC Deals
For those users looking to snag a prebuilt gaming PC deal during Prime Day 2024, there is no lack of options, but some deals are a notch above their competition. Game Rant’s handpicked favorite when it comes to a gaming PC deal is the Skytech Blaze Gaming PC which offers some of the best value for money even as it has hardware that should allow users to game with all settings turned up in 2024 without any issues.
Users looking for a gaming PC that feels premium while having the goods under the hood to back its looks can opt for the ASUS ROG Strix G15 Gaming PC, which offers a capable Intel Core i7 12700F CPU and a mid-range RTX 3060 GPU that can hold its own for the most part with its newer RTX 4060 sibling but offers more VRAM as part of the bargain.
Gamers looking for a cheaper option can go for the Skytech Gaming Shadow Gaming PC instead, which offers the same GPU but sacrifices some CPU horsepower and goes for a cheaper case to allow it to clock under $1000 after its ongoing 14% discount is applied to make it an excellent bargain.
Alternatively, those who want a sub-$800 Desktop PC offering can opt for the Thermaltake LCGS Quartz i460 R4 Gaming Desktop that offers an RTX 4060 paired to a 13th generation Intel Core i5 CPU instead, offering excellent value for money versus building a new gaming PC from scratch.
Prime Day Gaming Laptop Deals
For those in the market for a gaming laptop, there is a dearth of options, but the MSI Katana A15 AI, much like its non-AI branded predecessor, continues to offer excellent value for money, throwing in an RTX 4070 GPU in addition to a powerful Ryzen 9 CPU under the hood. With an impressive $100 discount carving into its already competitive pricing post-Prime Day, the Katana A15 AI is a notch above the competition in terms of performance and value for money at its price point.
Those wanting a more budget-conscious option can opt for the GIGABYTE Aorus 16X gaming laptop, which offers a slightly lower-end RTX 4060 GPU but with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD as well as a 16-core 14th Generation Intel CPU even as it trades at a 10% discount over MSRP currently.
The Acer Nitro V Gaming Laptop offers a powerful, more budget-friendly option, keeping the RTX 4060 GPU above but switching out the CPU for a more power-efficient octa-core AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS CPU that trades at an impressive 15% discount making it one of the best gaming laptops one can get under $1000.
Users who do not need the 32GB of RAM or QHD display that the GIGABYTE option offers above delivers can opt for the more polished-looking ASUS ROG Strix G16 which costs ~$70 less but does downgrade the screen, half the RAM in play, and opts for a 13th generation Intel CPU.
For those not looking to game, or are in the market for a Macbook, the Apple MacBook Air’s M3-infused 13-inch model offers 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD space in addition to a large $250 discount on Amazon for any one of its 4 color choices at the time of writing. A similar discount is exhibited by the slightly dated M2 variant of the MacBook Air 13-inch laptop that trades at a proportionally larger discount (thanks to its lower price) as part of the same promotional Prime Day pricing.
Prime Day Monitor And Display Deals
On the monitor front, some of the choices are straightforward, such as the Acer Nitro KG241Y Sbiip Gaming Monitor that trades at a whopping 36% discount over MSRP to command a $100 price tag currently, making it one of the cheapest gaming monitors available to users thanks to the price cut even as it offers an above-average 165Hz refresh rate.
Users wanting a larger screen or a better resolution can opt for the Acer Nitro XV271U Gaming Monitor instead, which increases the screen size by 3 inches, offering a 180Hz refresh rate and a screen with twice the resolution (QHD), essentially delivering an upgrade on all fronts simultaneously for an additional $115.
Those looking for a 4K gaming monitor can go for Gigabyte’s excellent M28U Gaming Monitor that offers an IPS display, a low 1ms response time a high refresh rate (144Hz), and support for AMD’s FreeSync Premium Pro with a 33% discount over MSRP that makes it a hard-to-match deal, especially for more well-known monitor brands in 2024.
Others might find the ASUS ROG Switft PG27UQR 4K Gaming Monitor a better option as it shaves off an inch and adds a bit to the price tag even as it offers a Fast IPS panel, a higher 160Hz refresh rate that caters to gamers in particular even as it trades at a sub-$140 price cut at the time of writing.
Alternatively, those needing a higher refresh rate can opt for the similarly positioned 27′ option from the same company, the ASUS ROG Swift PG279QM which offers a high 240Hz refresh rate, a 2K resolution, and native support for Nvidia’s G-Sync tech under the hood which makes it an alluring monitor option to consider even as it trades at 9% off MSRP at the time of writing.
High-end PC gamers in the market for an ultrawide gaming monitor option can opt for the Samsung G95SC OLED Gaming Monitor, which is clocking in at an impressive $720 price cut at the time of writing, making it a good time to consider a premium gaming monitor option that can easily be the centerpiece of most modern gaming PC builds even as it trades at what is a historical low point for the enormous monitor.
Users looking for a smaller, but equally impressive option in the ultrawide form factor can go for Samsung’s QD-OLED touting SAMSUNG 34″ Odyssey G85SD Ultrawide Gaming Monitor that trades at an equally impressive $400 discount, effectively shaving off a 3rd of its asking price.
