It’s after Halloween, meaning the holiday season is officially upon us. So that you don’t have to worry about shopping after eating turkey, Newegg is starting their Black Friday deals a week early.


While there are plenty of sales for non-gaming items going on during the month, they definitely took some major steps in giving gamers the gift of deals this year.


Diving into the mix, you can find discounts on gaming laptops to gaming consoles to PC components and accessories. There are a lot, and this is likely just a taste of what to expect when the sale starts.


Just a few highlights include incredibly low-priced gaming computers, for instance. Yes, that includes both desktop PC and laptop.


In laptops, you can find the Lenovo LOQ 15IRH8, which offers a 15.6” screen, Intel Core i5, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050, 8GB RAM, and a 512GB SSD. While it isn’t going to play games at the highest settings, it’ll get you where you need to go, especially for only $749.99 right now, down $350 from its usual price.


For just $100 more, though, you can get your hands on a bit more power with the MSI GF Series laptop. This one supes up the specs to be an Intel Core i7 (albeit, an older generation), 32GB RAM, and 1TB SSD. The graphics card also amps up slightly to a GeForce RTX 4060.


Speaking of MSI, there’s a desktop for $200 off right now, if you prefer something a bit more solid. The MSI Gaming Desktop Aegis R 12NUC7-635US rocks a similar 12th Generation Intel Core i7 and 1TB SSD. For $999 right now, a desktop-style NVIVIA GeForce RTX 4060 and 16GB of RAM will do you just fine for most gaming.


If that just isn’t enough RAM, no worries! Corsair has you covered with their trademark RGB desktop memory. For $102.99, you can snag 32GB to drop into a DDR5 PC. Plus, it changes colors in your case.


If you’re on a budget, you can’t go wrong with Acer Gaming, though. Acer has a desktop gaming PC for $659.99. You get an Intel Core i5 (13th Generation!), 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SDD, and a GeForce RTX 3050 built in.


If you want a tad bit more power to the graphics card in the Acer, ASUS has a version of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti White OC Edition that’ll look real nice in a clean desktop. Pick it up for only $299.99.


Some of these items are hot commodities, so get them quick!


The Black Friday deals mentioned are already going. But, once the sale starts on November 17th, there will be even more. When the Cyber Monday deal starts a week later, some of those sales may change, but new ones will take their place. So, keep an eye out on Newegg for the rest of the month!
