Cyber Monday PC gaming deals 2021: early sales and what to expect
Cyber Monday PC gaming deals are some of the best ways to save money, especially considering how expensive this hobby can be. From pricey components like CPU coolers and motherboards, to fully kitted out gaming desktops and gaming laptops, there's going to be something for everyone in the seasonal sales this year.
We expect Cyber Monday deals to start showing up in the weeks before Black Friday on November 26, and we'll probably see the biggest range of discounts the weekend after, culminating in Cyber Monday. This year, Cyber Monday is on November 29, which is now just weeks away. While there's still time before November's major shopping weekend, retailers usually get a little excited and start releasing early bargains, so if you've had your eyes on a specific gaming headset or mechanical gaming keyboard then start hunting now to keep track of prices.
Maybe that means making sure your gaming rig is up to date – we've got guides to help you get the best graphics card deals as well as savings on components and games. If you're thinking of building a new machine, we've got a guide on how to save big on your PC build (and what to splurge on).

This is exactly where we'll be rounding up the best Cyber Monday PC Gaming deals as they land, so you won't miss a single thing.
Is Cyber Monday a good time to buy a gaming PC?
Yes, Cyber Monday is typically one of (if not the) best times of the year to get a gaming PC. Whether a pre-built desktop or gaming laptop, or buying parts piecemeal, Cyber Monday has been a great discount holiday in years past for picking up PC gaming hardware.
Originally, Black Friday had the in-store deals and Cyber Monday followed with online discounts, especially for computer hardware, but now you can find similar deals online in the weeks leading up to and through the Black Friday weekend and into Cyber Monday.
That said, we don't expect the deals holiday to be a better time to buy things that have been in short supply, like graphics cards or PS5 – sadly, the global chip shortage is ongoing. But you might be able to score deals on pre-built PCs with top-end GPUs, so we'd advise you to buy one if you see it and wait for Cyber Monday to save on non-graphics card components.
Are video games cheaper on Cyber Monday?
Yes, we expect good Cyber Monday game deals for physical and digital versions of recent video games. Amazon, Best Buy, Currys, Target, Walmart, and other retailers usually have deals on physical games, while Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store, and other online storefronts typically have their own Cyber Monday deals.
The Epic Store also had its own week-long 2020 Black Friday sale running from November 26th through Cyber Monday and into the week beyond, ending December 3rd. That particular sale included price cuts of up to 75% on titles like Watch Dogs: Legion, Control, Crysis Remastered, Death Stranding, and Outer Worlds – all fairly popular titles at the time, so we'd expect similar deals on this year's newer games. It's also worth checking in with the Epic Store over Cyber Monday as the service also tends to offer free games fairly regularly.
Cyber Monday PC gaming deals: what to expect
Components
Probably the most hotly contested battleground for retailers over Cyber Monday, alongside gaming accessories, is the components market. SSDs, motherboards, and RAM should all see plenty of action on Cyber Monday with the main exception being graphics cards and new desktop processors – which are both still in massively short supply thanks to the global chip shortage.
For components shopping, we recommend making a shopping list of all your ideal components for upgrading your rig come November. While you might not score great prices on a whole setup, chances are you'll find either a great SSD or RAM deal to your liking – especially if you're already lucky enough to have a good CPU and GPU already.
Peripherals
Every item here is available in abundance at a number of leading retailers in both the US and UK, so you can expect some really fantastic price cuts across the board. In fact, rarely do we see a big sales event (like Black Friday and Amazon Prime Day) pass without an absolute plethora of great deals on gear from top brands like Razer, Corsair, and SteelSeries.
Gaming laptops
Gaming laptops are definitely one of the most popular gaming-specific categories at the big retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Currys in the UK. Big price cuts on leading machines from Asus, Acer, and Dell are more or less a shoo-in, although it's important to know how much you're looking to spend as you head into the event.
For budget machines, we expect Dell, Best Buy, and Walmart to have the best options in the US, while Currys, Box, and Dell should be number one over in the UK. Of course, Cyber Monday PC gaming deals aren't just about budget options, however, and we should hopefully see some big price cuts on machines featuring RTX 3000 series cards, especially at Amazon (Razer, Asus) and Dell (Alienware).
Gaming desktops
For gaming desktops we'll also be seeing plenty of options, which is perfect if you didn't want to build an entire rig all by yourself but wanted a higher-quality machine that'll still handle those new games. Newegg, Best Buy, and Amazon are all prime candidates here for the biggest price cuts, although we've got high hopes for Dell this year – especially on its range of premium Alienware Aurora machines. Most of the steepest discounts are likely to go towards more underpowered budget systems though, so always make sure to check the specs before you buy.
Monitors
And last but certainly not least are the Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals we'll be expecting to see. Essential to any gaming setup, a good monitor can not only make your sessions so much more enjoyable, but actually give you the edge in game too.
Last year we saw some epic deals on everything from beastly 49-inch curved Samsung displays down to more modestly priced 24 and 27-inch monitors. Newegg, Walmart, and Amazon were all price matching last year, so it's likely we're in for more excellent Cyber Monday gaming monitor deals this year too.
Last year's Cyber Monday PC gaming deals
If you'd like to get a clear picture of what to expect with this year's Cyber Monday PC gaming deals, then there's no better way to do that than by seeing what was on sale last year. We've preserved a couple of top picks in each category just below as well as our thoughts on the deals at the time. Of course, this is just a few of the hundreds of deals we saw for gaming items on sale on Cyber Monday, some of which carried over from Black Friday weekend and others waiting for Monday to launch.
