Alienware Aurora R13 | $1979.99 $1,499.99 at Dell
Good morning! Welcome back to our live coverage of Black Friday 2022 gaming PC deals. We’ll get back to doing things the way we got the ball rolling yesterday. The Alienware Aurora R13 is our current top pick for best gaming PC. This deal from Dell (parent company of Alienware) gets you a 12th Gen Intel Core i7-12700F processor, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, 512GB of SSD storage, an AMD Radeon RX 6700XT GPU, and a savings of $480 -dollars versus appraised value. Dell also offers free shipping and one year of its premium support plan for the $1,499.99 purchase, so that’s worth noting.
If you’re looking for something a little more wallet-friendly, there’s also a second configuration currently on sale. In this version of the R13, Dell is offering a 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12400F CPU, AMD Radeon RX6500 XT GPU, 8GB of DDR5 RAM and 256GB of SSD storage for the low price of $899.99. If you’re struggling to afford high-end specs, this build in particular is a great way to make a long-term investment in a PC that you can upgrade later.
It’s also worth noting that we’ve experienced some technical glitches over the past few days when attempting to connect to Dell’s storefronts. If links direct you to an outlet or a website for Dell refurbished products, try directing to the official Dell dealer website in your region.

MSI Aegis R | Free Shipping | Free Nvidia game | $1,899 $1,199 at Newegg
Another awesome Black Friday gaming PC deal here – and it’s only Monday. For just $1,199 (and with a $700 discount, our biggest discount yet), you get a 12th Gen Intel Core i7 processor, RTX 3070 GPU, 16GB DDR4 RAM, and 1TB SSD -Storage.

We don’t have a lot of pricing data for each of these specific builds, especially since many of them differ slightly from retailers. For what it’s worth, Newegg says this is its lowest price in 30 days.
HP Omen 25L | £1,399.97 £999.97 at Box
The last deal didn’t have a UK equivalent, but this one is pretty close. In this deal from Box you get an HP Omen 25L for just £999.97. Under the hood is a Ryzen 7 3700X processor, an RTX 3060 Ti and 16 GB HyperX FURY DDR4 RAM. Storage is the only thing that could potentially hamper this build, as it only comes with 256GB WD Black SSD and 2TB HDD. With SSDs hitting historically low prices this Black Friday season, you could always spend a little more to upgrade them separately.
Regardless, this is a solid build for the money, especially since you get a capable RTX 30-series GPU built in for less than a grand.
iBUYPOWER Trace MR258i | $1,299 $1,099 at Best Buy

Either way, get an iBUYPOWER gaming PC for $1,099 with this deal from Walmart. If you haven’t heard of iBUYPOWER we would argue that it is one of the most reliable budget brands out there. Inside, you get a Ryzen 7 5700 processor, an RTX 3060 GPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. In terms of performance per dollar spent, this is a pretty good deal.
