Acer Predator Orion 3000 Intel Core i7-11700F RTX 3070 Gaming PC for $1399.99
This is a great price for a prebuilt gaming PC equipped with an RTX 3070 GPU. The RTX 3070 is significantly more powerful than the RTX 3060 Ti or the RTX 2080 SUPER. It is the perfect card for 1440p gaming, even at high refresh rates (the RTX 3080 and higher are generally overkill). It’s paired with an 11th generation Intel Core i7-11700F 8-core CPU, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, and 1TB HDD. The case looks slick too, with its windowed side panel and RGB.
ASUS ROG STRIX G10 Intel Core i7-11700 RTX 3060 Gaming PC for $1099.99
Here’s another gaming PC that beats what we saw on Amazon Prime Day. This particular ASUS ROG STRIX G10 sold for $1219.99 on Prime Day, but today it’s $120 cheaper.

Amazon has the best price on this RTX 3080 equipped Alienware Aurora gaming PC. The RTX 3080 is the most recommended card for 4K gaming. It’s significantly more powerful than the RTX 3070 or the RTX 2080 Ti. It’s not exorbitantly priced like the RTX 3090 and at 4K it only loses out on a few frames per second. In addition to the powerful RTX 3080 GPU, this PC boasts a liquid-cooled AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-core processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD.
HP Pavilion Intel Core i5-10400 RTX 3060 Gaming PC
This unassumingly looking HP Pavilion PC houses a GeForce RTX 3060 card that can handle pretty much any game out there at 1080p and high settings, even at its very low $850 price point. The Intel Core i5-10400 processor won’t bottleneck your gaming either; there’s practically no difference between a Core i5 and Core i7 processor in terms of gaming performance. It’s also still generously rounded out with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD.

MSI GeForce RTX 3080 GPU for $699.99
The GeForce RTX 3080 GPU has finally hit its original MSRP from back when it launched. The MSI “Ventus 3X Plus” GeForce RTX 3080 GPU is the least expensive RTX 3080 variant on Amazon right now at a solid price of $699.99. The RTX 3080 really doesn’t need any introduction. This is the de facto card to get if you plan to run current generation games at 4K, since it’s up to 50% faster than the previous generation RTX 2080 SUPER and doesn’t command the exorbitant price of the RTX 3080 Ti or RTX 3090 (both of which are a mere 3%-5% faster in real world performance). It has an HDMI 2.1 port for passing through 4K @ 120Hz, which it has the power to drive even with resource hungry games like Elden Ring.
Zotac GeForce RTX 3090 GPU for $999.99
Woot has the Zotac GeForce RTX 3090 GPU for only $999.99. This is an outstanding price for one of the most powerful video cards available. On Amazon, the least expensive RTX 3090 GPU is over $1300. Although the RTX 3090 is indeed a best-in-class gaming card (it’s as much as 20% more powerful than the RTX 3080 at 4K resolution), it’s actually not really intended for gamers. The RTX 3090 is the workstation GPU of choice not because of its processing power (which it has in spades), but because of the massive 24GB of GDDR6X RAM.
Intel Gaming Day Sales at Other Vendors
Amazon isn’t the only vendor hosting the Intel Gamer Days Sale. Other merchants, notably Walmart and Dell, also have postworthy discounts on newer model gaming laptops and PCs.
New Alienware Aurora R13 Intel Core i7-12700 Alder Lake RTX 3060 Ti Gaming PC for $1571.99
This particular config comes equipped with a new 12th gen Intel Core i7-12700F Alder-Lake 12-core processor, 16GB of DDR5-4400MHz RAM, a generously sized 1TB SSD, and the new RTX 3060 Ti GPU. The RTX 3060 Ti is about as powerful as the previous generation’s RTX 2080 SUPER; it’s more than powerful enough to handle any game at up to 1440p.
The latest Intel Core i7 Alder Lake CPU is currently the king of gaming processors; it is significantly more powerful than any of the previous Intel CPUs before it. It’s also much faster than the newest AMD Ryzen 6000 series processors. One of the disadvantages of jumping on the Intel Alder Lake platform is that you will need a new motherboard and RAM. Fortunately, if you go the prebuilt route, all of that is taken care of for you. The Dell XPS boasts an Intel Z960 chipset motherboard that supports the Alder Lake CPU as well as PCI-E 5.0 for your RTX 30 series video card and beyond, plus you get 16GB of the new DDR5-4400MHz RAM.
New Dell XPS Intel Core i7-12700 Alder Lake RTX 3060 Ti Gaming PC for $1399.99
Here’s a way to get a Dell gaming PC with very similar specs to the Alienware PC above but for a lower price. This particular config also comes equipped with the new Intel Core i7-12700 Alder Lake CPU, 16GB of DDR5-4400MHz RAM, dual storage drives (512GB SSD and 1TB HDD), and an RTX 3060 Ti GPU. This is the newest Dell XPS chassis. Compared to the previous iteration, the XPS 8950 is larger in volume (27L vs 19L) and provides more clearance for the CPU and GPU area for much better airflow. That’s important because the new 12th generation Alder Lake processors as well as the RTX 30 series video card can run hot.
New Dell XPS Intel Core i7-12700 Alder Lake RTX 3080 Gaming PC for $1929.99
This Dell XPS model has been upgraded with an RTX 3080 GPU, 32GB of DDR5-4400MHz RAM, and a generous 1TB SSD. The RTX 3080 is the GPU we recommend for gaming at 1440p at max settings and ultra high refresh rates, or 4K gaming. When paired with the new Alder Lake i7 CPU, this rig is going to be more powerful than 90% of gaming rigs out there. You’ll never have memory bandwidth problems with 32GB installed, and the 1TB SSD is the perfect size for your main partition and boot drive.
Alienware x15 R1 15″ Intel Core i7-11800H RTX 3080 Gaming Laptop for $2149.99
The Alienware x15 is a newer, thinner, and lighter redesign of the m15. In fact, it’s the thinnest Alienware laptop ever and competes in build quality, dimensions, and performance to other high-end ultra-thin laptops like the Razer Blade. This particular config comes well equipped with an 11th gen Intel Core i7-11800H CPU, RTX 3080 GPU with a TDP rating of 110W, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The RTX 3080 is the most powerful GPU you’ll find in a laptop and is fully capable of powering through pretty much any game at 60+fps on the laptop’s 1080p display. That’s very impressive considering the x15’s 0.63″ thickness.
Alienware x17 17″ Intel Core i7-11800H RTX 3080 Gaming Laptop for $2299.99
The Alienware x17 is the larger 17″ sibling to the x15. There are plenty of advantages to having a bit of a larger chassis besides just the larger display. A bigger chassis means potentially better thermal cooling, and that means more headroom for a better video card. This x17 is also equipped with an RTX 3080 GPU, but with a TGP rating of 165W vs 110W. Higher TDP means more power is supplied to the graphics card, and that directly equates to better performance in games.
New Dell G15 15″ AMD Ryzen 7 6800H RTX 3070 Ti Gaming PC for $1638.99
This 2022 Dell G15 laptop features the latest AMD Ryzen 7 6800H 8-core CPU, GeForce RTX 3070 Ti GPU, 16GB of DDR5-4800MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD.

The AMD Ryzen 7 6800H it’s paired with is the latest CPU from AMD, and it’s around 10% better performing than the previous generation 5000 series.

This particular config is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800 8-core CPU, GeForce RTX 3060 Ti GPU, 16GB of DDR4-3200MHz RAM, dual storage (512GB SSD and 1TB HDD), and a 1000W power supply. The RTX 3060 Ti GPU is on par with the previous generation’s RTX 2080 SUPER; it is the ideal card for 1080p gaming and has plenty of power to handle 1440p gaming as well. The liquid cooled AMD Ryzen 7 5800 CPU is a great all-around processor and won’t bottleneck your gaming.
Acer Predator Triton 300 15″ QHD Intel Core i7 RTX 3070 Gaming Laptop for $1299

Walmart has this Acer Predator Triton gaming laptop, equipped with a 15″ 2560×1440 display, 11th generation Intel Core i7-11800H CPU, RTX 3070 GPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD for only $1299 shipped. The higher resolution on the display requires a slightly more powerful GPU to run games on it, and the RTX 3070 is the perfect candidate (it’s a bit more powerful than the RTX 2080 SUPER mobile GPU).

Walmart is offering an outstanding deal on the new Lenovo Legion 5 Pro laptop that is also equipped with the 12th generation Intel Core i7 Alder Lake CPU and RTX 3070 GPU.

The RTX 3070 GPU in this gaming laptop also has a TGP rating of 140W. Higher TGP correlates to a more powerful GPU. In terms of real world performance, the Legion 5 Pro is one of the most powerful RTX 3070 equipped gaming laptops on the market.
