The M4 is by far a still more advanced chip, but the M2 model is still worth a deal if you can’t afford the extra cash. This version of the MacBook Air was the first to receive the latest design, including MagSafe, a keyboard with full-sized function keys, and yes, the camera notch.
This system has an 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 16GB of RAM (enough for Apple Intelligence features), and 256GB of SSD storage. Read our review of the M2 MacBook Air here .
The M2 chip still has good enough performance for most people, as long as you’re not doing anything too intense. If you use multiple monitors, however, keep in mind that this system only supports a single external display. — Andrew E. Freedman
SSDs aren't cheap at the moment, and that makes find a bargain pretty difficult. If you're struggling to find super-fast M.2 storage at a great price for yourself, then you might be interested in this SK Hynix Platinum P51 drive.
Using the company's in-house PCIe 5.0 SSD controller (8-channel Alistar ACNT093), which supports sequential read and write speeds of up to 14,700 and 13,400 MB/s each on its 238-layer 3D TLC NAND (up from 176-layer in the P41), the SK Hynix Platinum P51 drive is one of the fastest on the market.
Its current price of $109.99 (using promo code BFEFE96 to know the final $10 off) isn’t quite the lowest ever, but a really fast, sub-$110 PCIe 5 M.2 drive is hard to pass up, especially given current market conditions.
Buy the SK Hynix Platinum P51 1TB PCIe 5 M.2 SSD for just $109.99. It's a wicked fast drive that's also efficient and great option for SFF builds. Use promo code BFEFE96 to save $10.
Even though it’s a PCIe 5 drive that generally runs hot, it draws just 10W, making it one of the more power efficient options available. This means it’s less likely to throttle under sustained activity and is a good candidate for SFF systems. Hynix stands behind these drives with 2-million-hour MTBF and a long five-year warranty. If you’re looking for a fast, efficient, and cost-effective PCIe 5-based M.2 drive, buy the SK Hynix Platinum P51 at $109.99 and enjoy the speed and savings. – Joe Shields
Cyber Monday is in the dirt, but Newegg is running yet another set of Doorbuster deals, and they're live — right now, as of 9AM PT!
Of interest to readers of this establishment are an astoundingly good deal on an RX 9070 XT 16GB, an RTX 5060-powered gaming PC, and an MSI MAG 23.6-inch gaming monitor. Check 'em out below.
This RTX 5070 graphics card, made by XFX, is down to just $499.99, well below MSRP and saving you 41%!
This ABS Cyclone Aqua gaming PC features an Intel Core i5 14400F, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 8GB GPU, 32GB DDR4 RAM, and a 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD. It's down by 40%.
This 23.6-inch MSI MAG gaming monitor features a 1080p resolution with a 180Hz refresh rate. It's curved, with a 1500R curvature, and uses a VA panel. It's now down by 42%!
These Newegg Doorbuster deals will sell out in minutes, so don't walk, run, as you might just pick up one heck of a bargain! — Ben Stockton
Tough luck, folks. As we expected, Newegg's Doorbuster deals were snapped up fast.
The XFX RX 9070 XT 16GB and the MSI MAG 244C monitor have both completely sold out. You can still order the ABS Cyclone for the higher price of $799.99 , although it is on back order. — Ben Stockton
Who needs doorbuster deals when this MSI Gaming PC with an RTX 5050 and 16GB RAM is only $599.99!
So you missed the ABS PC in Newegg's Doorbuster deals, so what? There's a great deal still to be had on this MSI Aegis R2 gaming PC, which sports an Intel Core i5-14400F, in addition to an RTX 5050 and 16GB of DDR5 memory, all for just under $600 at Walmart , which is a pretty fair deal at $300 off.
This would be a great machine if you're looking for someone's first-ever gaming PC, or if you're on a shoestring budget. PC prices aren't looking too great at the moment, especially with the price of DRAM rising, so locking in a price like this is a smart investment.
This PC will manage to run games at 1080p resolutions well, with ample power for anything you might want to run, especially in competitive titles, which are a bit easier to run than the big AAA games. That's not to say the 5050 won't be able to handle them at all, just bear in mind that you're probably not flicking all your settings up to Ultra, or running things at the highest resolutions with this build.
The MSI Aegis R2 prebuilt gaming PC features an Intel Core i5-14400F, alongside an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 8GB GPU, and 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and 1TB of NVMe storage. Powering it all is a 650W 80+ Gold-rated power supply.
On most prebuilts of this nature, manufacturers usually skimp out on the motherboard. Luckily, this build features support for Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6E, meaning that you're not going to have to pick up any pesky adapters to get those little quality-of-life features, which aren't always a given.
Packaged up with Windows 11, alongside a basic MSI keyboard and mouse, the only thing you'll need to add to make this a full setup is an adequate gaming monitor. Again, for a humble system like this, a 1080p display would be plenty, just expect to run things at lower settings if you're planning on using a 1440p panel or higher. — Sayem Ahmed
Four 1KG spools of PETG filament for $39 is a decent price, but when it’s Rapid PETG, it is an even better bargain, thanks to this deal at Amazon . A roll is usually $15 on its own, so you are getting one roll for free. Just note that to access the deal, you must be an Amazon Prime member.
Four rolls of Black Rapid PETG for $40 is a great deal. You're effectively getting a whole roll for free!
As 3D printers get faster, they chew through filament at a higher rate and not all filaments are designed to handle the increased demand of a hungry extruder. Rapid PETG is designed for faster 3D printers such as the Elegoo Centauri Carbon and it can work up to 600MM/s. I’ve used this filament for many projects including my PC server case, a recent super-sized “Lego” holiday wreath and tool holders around my workshop. All of which were printed on an Elegoo Centauri Carbon .
PETG is a tough thermoplastic. It has similar strength to ABS (but without the stink) and prints as easily as PLA. PETG is more for functional projects than decorative. That said, PETG’s shine can be aesthetically pleasing for certain projects and persons.
This is the filament that you always keep in stock, for those projects that need strength and for when you need to build a functional project there and then. – Les Pounder
The iFixit range of tools are great. But great tools usually come at a high price. Right now, many iFixit tools have 20% at Amazon, and the smallest of the sets, the Minnow is now just a little under $12, but what do you get for your money?
With 16, 4mm driver bits, a knurled handle and a great ABS plastic case, this is tiny, yet powerful addition to your EDC or bo-bag.
That’s a lot of useful bits to carry around. The ergonomic bit driver has a plastic handle with a knurled grip, so you’re not going to slip! The swivel top makes easy work of putting the pressure on the screw head. The case closes with a magnetic lock, and the lid doubles as somewhere to keep track of the screws that you are removing.
This is a cheap price for a quality bit of durable kit, and you should grab one to gift this holiday season. – Les Pounder
You don't need to shell out loads on expensive kit with subwoofers to get good desktop audio. I’ve been using the Creative Pebble lineup for years, and I've never really wanted more out of my desktop audio setup. Of course, given the lack of a dedicated sub, you’re not going to get the deepest thumping bass out there, but given the smaller size and light desktop footprint, it can fit into just about any setup.
Discounted to just $35.99 at Amazon right now, the Creative Pebble V3 also offers Bluetooth support, if you’re not keen on using the standard USB-C or 3.5mm connector. At this price, this is a big upgrade on pretty much any built-in monitor speakers you might already have. So, if you’re without a pair and you’re looking for something good enough without splashing a load of cash on a beefier setup, this is a great option to consider.
The Creative Pebble V3 is equipped with up to 16W peak power, with 2.25-inch full-range drivers, offering high volume output, if you pair it with a 10W USB-A or USB-C port, using a dedicated gain switch. With driver-free plug-and-play connectivity, the speakers are optimized for ease-of-use above all else, and also sport Bluetooth 5.0, or a direct 3.5mm Aux-in jack too.
Featuring a rounded, sleek design, the appropriately-named Creative Pebble will look great in just about any setup. The angled 45-degree design points directly toward you, offering a solid audio experience.
In my first-hand experience with using the older V2 model, I’ve played all manner of video game audio, music, and movies, and never once have I thought that I needed more out of my desktop audio. These speakers are more than enough for mixed usage for the average user, especially for a bargain price of just $35.99 over at Amazon right now, and they don’t break the bank. — Sayem Ahmed
With the shopping season still raging on, you may have forgotten to pick yourself up a performant gaming mouse. Luckily, the Razer DeathAdder V2 X Hyperspeed is still on sale at an all-time low price of just $33.99 at Amazon, offering a 43% saving over its usual price. Sporting the popular DeathAdder shape that Razer's been selling for years, you don't have to spend big to get a good-enough gaming mouse for just about anything.
Sporting Razer's Hyperspeed wireless tech, you can expect around 235 hours of battery life while gaming, or up to 615 hours when hooked up via Bluetooth.
The Razer DeathAdder V2 X Hyperspeed offers an iconic mouse shape, with low-latency wireless via a 2.4GHz connection, with additional support for Bluetooth. Armed with Razer's Gen-2 mechanical mouse switches and the 5G Advanced Optical sensor, you also get seven reprogrammable buttons, which can be configured in Razer's Synapse software.
One feature that's becoming rarer to find in gaming mice is the fact that you have to bring your own batteries. With a good set of rechargeables, you won't have to worry about battery degradation over the years, since you can simply swap them out, as the DeathAdder V2 X Hyperspeed offers. This isn't reflected in the higher-end models. But, if you're conscious about user-replaceable functionality, this is a boon in my books.
With a total of seven reprogrammable buttons, the DeathAdder V2 X Hyperspeed might not be the newest mouse out there, but now that it's been discounted down to just $33.99 on Amazon , it sure is a bargain still worth picking up. — Sayem Ahmed
If you’re working with a 24-inch 60Hz 1080p monitor but don’t quite have enough budget for a new video card to jump to a higher resolution high FPS gaming, MSI’s 180Hz MAG 244C curved gaming monitor is on sale now for $87.88, but will be on a doorbuster deal and down to $74.99 at 12 ET today – quite possibly the lowest price I’ve seen on a 180Hz monitor. It’s a great compromise to hold you over until prices become more reasonable.
You get a 24-inch VA panel with a 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms MPRT to reduce ghosting, while Adaptive sync support prevents screen tearing. The sleek frameless design is ‘frameless’ on three sides with HDMI 2.0b and DisplayPort 1.2a connections, which support 1080p/180Hz. It’s also HDR-ready, enhancing contrast and shadow depth. It also comes with an adjustable stand, and don’t forget that 1500R curve that adds to gaming immersion. We like this panel for the bottom barrel price, but not for its features or specifications. As a gamer, moving from 60Hz to 165Hz was a completely different gaming experience. My move cost over $300 at the time; yours can be had for a pittance today, $74.99 . Get it before stock runs out! – Joe Shields
Upgrade your 60Hz gaming monitor on the cheap! Grab the MSI MAG 244C curved gaming monitor for under $88 dollars and enjoy smooth tear-free gaming without emptying your bank account.
Once you get below $100, it's hard to expect miracles out of a gaming keyboard. But the Asus TUF Gaming K3 Gen II has some impressive specs for the price, which stand out even more when the keyboard is on sale for just $70.60. Critically, it includes a gasket mount, situating the plate between a series of silicon gaskets to soften the typing the feel and help mitigate the dreaded ping of most gaming keyboards.
The Asus TUF Gaming K3 Gen II is a wired mechanical keyboard that features a gasket mount and removable top plat, as well as click optical-mechanical switches.
The dampening foam and gasket mount are the main draw here, but the Asus also includes a removable top plate for cleaning, as well as click optical-mechanical switches that it says last for up to 100 million keystrokes. The keyboard is wired, and it unfortunately doesn't come with a hot-swappable PCB, but it's hard to expect wireless and hot-swappable switches at this price. – Jake Roach
If you were lucky enough to grab some great video card deals, you may need to upgrade your power supply to a unit that supports the latest standards, like the MSI MPG A850GS PCIE5 for an all-time low price of $89.99. You can get an additional $10 off with a mail-in rebate, for a final cost of $79.99.
Get a heck of deal on MSI's MPG A850GS PCIE5 80+ Gold power supply on sale for $79.99 after MIR ($89.99 without). An all-time low price.
As the name implies, it fully supports the newest standards, including ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1. MSI gives you TWO 12V-2×6 cables to connect to your shiny new video card. And the best part, it's whisper quiet with a Cybentics A++, rating. Their highest (or quietest) noise rating. Like its big brother who is also on sale, the semi-digital platform is efficient, earning 80+ Gold and Cybenetics Gold certifications, operating at high efficiency levels. For $79.99 after rebate ($89.99 out the door), it’s a good deal on a high-quality power supply with plenty of cables and power to drive anything not named RTX 5090. With purchase, you can also redeem a $30 steam code that sweetens the pot even more. — Joe Shields
Once you've tried gaming on an OLED monitor, it's hard to go back to anything else. The motion smoothness, inky blacks, eye-popping colors, and 0.03ms response times make playing games a feast for the eyes. Dell's Alienware AW3425DW is one of our favorite monitors and an easy Editor's Choice pick, thanks to its amazing build quality and out-of-the-box color accuracy and screen uniformity.
The Alienware AW3425DW is a 34-inch curved QD-OLED gaming monitor that offers excellent visuals with high-end performance. The panel offers a 3440×1440 resolution, 240 Hz refresh rate, 0.03ms response time, and support for both AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and G-Sync. The display also covers 99.3% DCI-P3 and hits 1000 nits peak brightness with VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification.
You can pick up this delicious screen at Dell for just $649, saving $150 off the list price. This puts the pricing of this QD-OLED monitor in line with the competition, plus you get outstanding features like its blisteringly fast 240Hz refresh rate and Dell's three-year burn-in warranty.
The best way to avoid the surge in DDR5 prices is to pick up a bundle, and we've seen a handful of excellent bundles at Newegg over Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The latest iteration still in stock is one of the cheapest bundles we've seen , offering up nearly $800 worth of gear for just $409.98.
This Newegg bundle brings together a 32GB kit of Corsair Vengeance DDR5-06400 CL36 memory, an MSI X870 Gaming Plus Wi-Fi motherboard, and a Corsair iCue Link H115i cooler for nearly half off.
It includes 32GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 CL36 memory, an MSI X870 Gaming Plus Wi-Fi motherboard, and a Corsair iCue Link H115i 280mm cooler. For some context, the price of the memory along is $406.99, so you're essentially getting the motherboard and cooler for free.
These are bad components, either. The memory falls in the sweet spot for AM5 platforms, and the motherboard comes with the full X870 chipset, offering up PCIe 5.0 on both the top x16 slot and top M.2 slot without any shared lanes. – Jake Roach
It's increasingly difficult to find a decent gaming laptop under $1,000, but the HP Omen 16 clears that mark with flying colors with this Cyber Monday sale. It sports an RTX 5050, 16GB of memory, a 1TB SSD, and an Intel Core Ultra 5 225H, and i t's on sale for $600 off, bringing the price down to $799.
A slim gaming laptop that doesn't break the bank. With an RTX 5050 and Core Ultra 5 processor, paired with 16GB of memory, this machine is ideal for those looking to dip their toes into portable gaming. It features a modern, sober design with all the necessary ports, along with decent battery life.
You shouldn't expect top-tier performance, but the RTX 5050 is still capable of driving the 1920 x 1200 internal display at 165Hz. This is HP's designed "slim" model of the Omen 16, which it debuted earlier this year , 16% slimmer than the original Omen 16 while carrying similar components. AT $799, the Omen 16 Slim is down to its lowest price we've ever seen, shaving $50 off the previous low we spotted earlier this year.
Outside the core components, you get an Ethernet jack, an array of USB 3.2 ports, and an HDMI 2.1 connection. It's a solid laptop, and although this is the entry-level configuration, you don't normally see current-gen components in a gaming laptop under $1,000, much less at $799. – Jake Roach
Even though both Black Friday and Cyber Monday have come and passed, there are still savings to be had on some of Samsung's Odyssey lineup of monitors. The G95SD offers a rapid 240Hz refresh rate, and enormous dual-QHD (5120 x 1440) resolution, and has gotten a 41% discount at Amazon , plummeting the panel to it's lowest-ever price.
Now, just make sure you have adequate desk space for this curved beast, since it's absolutely gigantic. Ultrawide panels are great for productivity and for immersive gaming. Just be sure that you've got a GPU up to the task of driving all of those pixels. The QD-OLED display will surely be a looker too, and it's packed with all of the gaming features you can shake a stick at.
The Samsung G9 G95SD 49-inch QD-OLED ultrawide gaming monitor has just about everything you want from a monitor of this caliber. With a massive dual QHD (5120 x 1440) resolution, alongside G-Synch compatilibity, a refresh rate of 240Hz and a 0.03ms GtG response time, this gaming panel's 32:9 screen offers up 110 pixels-per-inch. Just make sure you have enough desk space to actually fit one into your setup.
We reviewed this panel back in 2023 , and gave it 4.5 stars, stating that the display offered up a stunning image with deep contrast and saturated colors, alongside no need for any calibration out of the box. Boasting excellent build quality and good-enough speakers out of the box, the Samsung Odyssey G9 (G95SD) is a premium purchase that can now be had for even less than usual.
It's a complete desktop entertainment solution, with a gigantic OLED display with premium build quality, and all of the modern essential gaming features you might need. With extra frills like support for Samsung's Gaming Hub and Samsung TV Plus, there's a lot of value on offer for the price here, and now armed with a massive $770 discount, we'd suggest you pick this panel up before the deal inevitably disappears. — Sayem Ahmed
If your desktop has a spare PCIe slot and you want to upgrade to the newer Wi-Fi 6E standard, TP-Link's Archer TXE75E add-in card has you covered and is currently on sale for $44 . I've been using the non-E (Wi-Fi 6) version of this card ( also on sale for $30 ) for several years in my primary living room PC, and it's worked flawlessly. This model uses an Intel AZ210 Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 card, under a heatsink and supported by a serious antenna.
This Wi-Fi 6E expansion card uses an Intel AX210 card that includes Bluetooth 5.3 support and a beefy magnetic antenna. It's a good upgrade if you have a Wi-Fi 6E router and your desktop isn't getting a good signal or speed.
For more about why you might (or might not) want to opt for the 6E version of this card over the cheaper, older Wi-Fi 6 model, see our explainer about the differences between the two standards . Of course, Wi-Fi 7 is the newest standard , but higher-end routers that support those features are still expensive, and most of your devices probably don't support Wi-Fi 7 yet, anyway. So you're unlikely to regret getting an "older" Wi-Fi 6 card anytime soon, especially at these reduced prices. — Matt Safford
The Corsair 6500D Airflow isn't technically on sale, but Newegg is offering a massive $100-off coupon for the midtower chassis right now. On sale, the $169.99 case is on sale for just $69.99. That's the lowest price we've seen on this case by a huge margin; the previous low was $129.99, and the case usually sells for its $170 list price.
The Corsair 6500D Airflow is on sale for its lowest price ever, with Newegg offering $100 off the case with a coupon.
The 6500D features a dual-chamber design reminiscent of Lian Li's PC-O11, but it comes with a mesh front and top panel. Internally, the motherboard tray supports reverse connection boards with Asus' BTF and MSI' Project Zero branding, and it includes mounts for two 2.5-inch and two 3.5-inch drives. Both the white and black versions are on sale, but unfortunately, the black version is sold out. – Jake Roach
AMD's Ryzen 9 9950X still sits at the top of our CPU hierarchy when it comes to productivity performance, and although the new Ryzen 7 9800X3D and Ryzen 9 9950X3D push ahead in gaming performance, AMD's original Zen 5 flagship still puts up a hell of a fight. You can still save $30 off the chip at Newegg with a coupon code, as well as nab a free MSI MAG Coreliquid A13 360 all-in-one liquid cooler.
AMD's X3D chips are the cream of the crop for gaming, but the Ryzen 9 9950X isn't far behind. It's almost identical to the Core i9-14900K in gaming performance (Intel's current fastest gaming CPU) while maintaining better 1% lows on average. In productivity workloads, it dominates our multi-threaded performance rankings. It takes a slight backseat to the Core Ultra 9 285K in single-threaded tasks, but that's an area where Intel has maintained a lead for several generations.
The AMD Ryzen 9 9950X has 16 cores and 32 threads, and can hit a maximum of 5.7 GHz and a 64MB L3 cache. This is the perfect processor for those building a powerful workstation.
(Image credit: Tom's Hardware) (Image credit: Tom's Hardware) (Image credit: Tom's Hardware) For the cooler, we praised the MSI MAG Coreliquid A13 for its low price and solid thermal performance in our review , though we were critical of the performance of the 240mm version. It's not "the strongest or quietest [AIO] on the market," our reviewer Albert Thomas wrote, but it's hard to argue with given that it's free with an excellent flagship CPU. – Jake Roach
The Fractal Ridge is one of my favorite mini-ITX cases, not because it's perfect, but because it just looks so good. For the next 12 hours, Newegg has it on sale for $43 off, dropping the price down to $101.99. That's not technically the lowest price it's ever dropped to, but it's close. We've seen it go as low as $99, but only for a brief time more than a year ago.
The Fractal Design Ridge is a mini-ITX case with a slim form factor. It includes a PCIe 4.0 rider and two 140mm PWM fans, as well as mounts for up to four 2.5-inch SSDs.
There are trade-offs with any mini-ITX case, and the Ridge is no exception. It's noisy under load, and you'll likely run into thermal issues if you hope to pack in a flagship like the Core i9-14900K or Ryzen 9 9950X. However, its unique design allows up to a four-slot GPU, which is a level of compatibility you almost always have to trade with a small form factor case. – Jake Roach
Too many gaming keyboards have that black, aggressive look, with strange fonts that look like alien languages as the key legends. Logitech aims to buck that trend with the G715 Wireless gaming keyboard, which comes included in a good-looking white colorway and is packaged with a cloud-shaped wrist rest.
Discounted by a staggering 41%, dropping the price to $129.99 at Amazon , this wireless keyboard offers something a little bit different compared to many modern boards out there. With a tenkeyless layout and media function row on top, complemented by a volume rocker, this board isn’t just a looker; it’s got some solid functionality built into it.
The Logitech G715 offers GX red switches in a tenkeyless layout, with 2.4Ghz or Bluetooth wireless connectivity, with a battery life of up to 24 hours. Sporting double-shot PBT keycaps and a removable plastic top plate, the G715 is also kitted out with a heap of customizable RGB features, with per-key lighting, and 16 additional lighting zones across the chassis. You can also customize all of the functionality in Logitech’s G HUB software.
This keyboard was released as a part of Logitech’s Aurora collection a few years ago, and in our 3.5-star review , we said that it offered up a solid typing experience and premium lighting effects. There’s also a plastic top plate, which you can customize in different colors with aftermarket parts.
With its unique look and aesthetic, this keyboard offers up something a little bit different compared to what’s out there on the market, and looks great while doing it. While it’s a pricey keyboard, the wireless connectivity, customizable RGB and not entirely terrible Logitech G HUB software make it a dead ringer for those who are after a clean-looking gaming setup. — Sayem Ahmed
Need a faster gaming monitor? If you've tried 240Hz, and it felt lacking, and you still outpace the breakneck speeds of 360Hz — how about 500Hz? These displays made it onto the market a couple of years ago, boasting ultra-fast refresh rates, and were positioned directly at the competitive gaming market.
The Alienware AW252HF is one of the panels where performance reigns supreme, and with its rapid refresh rate, and 1080p FHD screen resolution, you can get primed to outpace your rivals, so long as your gaming GPU can handle it. Armed with a $150 discount over at Dell, the panel is still priced at under $400 .
This super-high refresh rate monitor can display up to a 500Hz refresh rate in games that can support it, and of course, if you have a graphics card capable of pumping those numbers. The Alienware AW2524HF has a 25-inch IPS panel with a 1920 × 1080 (FHD) pixel resolution. This monitor is marketed toward serious esports players who prefer the faster frames in games like Counter-Strike, Apex Legends, and Valorant .
The 25-inch IPS panel is perfect for fast-paced competitive titles. You can unlock the ultra-speedy refresh rate of up to 500Hz through DisplayPort, though the monitor is also equipped with HDMI 2.1. With both USB upstream and downstream, it's a capable little panel and comes with AMD Freesync Premium to ensure that your gameplay experience remains buttery smooth.
Monitor deals are starting to disappear, but this one is still going strong. This niche display is strictly all about gaming performance, and if that's what you are after, you can't do much better without spending significantly more cash. — Sayem Ahmed
Sub-$100 monitors can be a mixed bag — lack of reliability and outdated specs can leave a bad impression. But this 27-inch LG display, on sale at Walmart, which includes a top 1,920 x 1,080 screen resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate for just $89, is a great option.
This LG UltraGear 27G411A-B display features a 27-inch IPS panel with a 1080p screen resolution. A 144Hz refresh rate makes this a good entry-level gaming machine, with a modern borderless design that'll look attractive on your desk.
With Walmart slashing the price of this display by 47%, you're getting crazy bargain with these specs. 1080p might seem basic, but — as I regularly remind anyone who listens — it's still the main option for gamers, based on the last Steam hardware survey. And it means you can game with this display using an older PC, too.
To help you play, this display comes with a refresh rate that maxes out at 144Hz using its overclock mode, with a standard rate of 120Hz. Combined with AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync support, which will sync your refresh rate to your GPU's frame rate, you should experience smooth, fluid visuals with no screen tearing on this display.
Ultimately, though, it's the cost that will drive people to a monitor like this. $89 makes it one of the cheapest models available right now from a brand you'd recognize. If you're still looking for a quick, cheap monitor upgrade at the end of these Cyber Monday sales, I'd pick this one. — Ben Stockton
With a total output of 100W and the ability to push that much through one USB-C port if nothing is plugged in, this is a good charger for high-powered devices. And with four ports in total, it's good for charging several devices, too, especially when you consider it gives you a spare power plug with the included mini power strip.
If you’ve gone ahead and bought yourself a TKL or smaller keyboard, it can sometimes feel like you’re missing out on the 10-key numpad. Let’s be real, that was the most useful bit of those hulking keyboards, anyway. As a recovering MMO player, I used MMO mice for years before I realized the true value of these little key-filled powerhouses.

I’ve been using the Naga V2 HyperSpeed for almost three years now, and have had no issues when sporting it for both work and gaming. Though it comes in as a heavier mouse when compared to the ultra-light models often geared toward FPS titles, you just can’t discount how useful having 19 programmable buttons is — especially if you want to set up and assign macros to them. For example, I use a 65% keyboard, and when I am not gaming, I have the trusty mouse for any numbers and a handful of symbols. In MMO games, I also have way more functionality on hand than I would normally. For merely $65 at Amazon, the Naga V2 HyperSpeed is a total steal , considering the quality-of-life features on offer. — Sayem Ahmed
