Amazon is hosting a 1-day deal featuring some amazing, cutting-edge tech at big discounts. If you’ve been in the market for a new gaming laptop, or waiting to upgrade your current gaming PC, then there are some listings here that you’ll want to take advantage of. You can find the sale link right here, and below we’ll be listing a few of the highlights from the sale.
Elgato Game Capture HD60 ($109.99)
This is one product that I actually own and use myself, so it’s easy for me to make this recommendation. If you’re a budding video game streamer, journalist, or just a social player who likes to make videos, this is hands-down the go-to capture card. For about $100 you’re getting as close to a plug-and-capture solution as you possibly can. Just pass your gaming PC, PS4, Xbox One, or Nintendo Switch HDMI connection through this little box, and all of your greatest moments will be captured at 1080p, 60fps. Elgato also provides really user-friendly software to use, and you can download that for free to go with your capture card.
AMD Ryzen 7 1700X CPU ($299.99)
If you’ve been looking for a CPU upgrade for you current gaming rig, here’s your chance to grab a current-gen, blazing-fast CPU for $100 off. The 1700X has a clock speed of 3.8 GHz, and is fully unlocked and ready to be overclocked. Make sure you have a proper cooling solution, though, because even when AMD hardware allows for direct overclocking, it won’t pay you a penny if you fry your CPU. That’s on you.
That said, AMD’s CPU outperformed its Intel counterpart in several test verticals, including 4K gaming. It could be a clever PR spin, but there’s no denying that this 8-core behemoth is going to give you some massive boosts across the board.
These are the two products that jumped out to me personally, but for you serious shoppers, there are two incredible gaming laptops on sale as well from Razer (here and here). Both of them are discounted by multiple hundreds of dollars, and will function as sleek ultra books perfect for class and even better for gaming.
Happy shopping!
