If I have $100 to spend this October Prime Day, these are the PC gaming deals I'm going for—my fav

Corsair 4000D Airflow | ATX Mid-tower |Up to 360 mm fans front | Up to 280 mm fans top | 120 mm fan rear | 7.85 kg | $104.99 $79.97 at Amazon (save $25.02, Prime member exclusive deal)
Corsair's compact PC case is pretty basic but has plenty of room inside for lots of fans and graphics cards up to 360 mm (14.2 inches) in length. It's on sale pretty much everywhere and at this price, it's a bargain.

WD Black SN850X | 1 TB | NVMe | PCIe 4.0 | 7,300 MB/s read | 6,300 MB/s write | $114.99 $74.99 at Amazon (save $40)
This is our favorite SSD for gaming right now. Unlike the cheaper SN770, the SN850X encapsulates the best PCIe 4.0 has to offer in terms of performance (check out our review). That makes it great for a boot drive with space to spare for your game library, and at this price, we're happy to pay the premium for its higher speed.

BeQuiet! Dark Rock Pro 5 | dual-tower | seven heat pipes | 2x Silent Wings fans included | $89.90 $71.90 at Amazon (save $18)
Forget liquid cooling, we can get by just fine with the breathable stuff. Not only is air cooling often better value than liquid cooling, it's quiet, too. This BeQuiet! cooler is pretty new, too, by the way.

Acer KC242Y | 23.8-inch | 1080p | 100Hz | VA | FreeSync | $117.99 $89.99 at Amazon (save $28)
Yes, it's a small VA panel, but it's cheap and and from a well-known and trusted manufacturer, with AMD FreeSync and a 100 Hz refresh rate. That's pretty good deal if you ask me. This would make an excellent second monitor, or a pretty quick main monitor in a pinch if you're building on a tight budget.

Team Group DDR5-6000 | 32 GB (2x16) | 6,000 MT/s  | CL30 | 1.35 V | $106.99 $85.99 at Newegg (save $21)
Fast DDR5 RAM is expensive, right? Well this kit isn't and it's perfect for any AMD AM5 or latest Intel gaming PC. Sure it doesn't have nice RGB lighting but if you can live without that, you'll have no complaints. And if you don't like it in white, then the kit comes in black for the same price.

Logitech G502 X | Wired | 25,600 DPI | 11 buttons | $79.99 $47.49 at Amazon (save $32.50, Prime member exclusive deal)
The G502 X sticks with the G502's staple design, including everything people love about it such as the ergonomic shape and spinny scroll wheel. We reckon it's the best wired gaming mouse on the market right now, and for this price, it's worth a look if you're not looking to cut the cord just yet.

Logitech G Pro X Superlight | Wireless | 25,600 DPI | 5 buttons | 70 hours battery | Right-handed | $159.99 $91 at Amazon (save $68.99)
Ignore the fact that this model has been around for a while because it's still a great lightweight, wireless gaming mouse. It's been my daily driver for a couple of years, now, and I still swear by it thanks to its respectable specs and dapper, minimalist shell. For this price, newer versions be damned, the original Superlight's where it's at.

Mountain Everest 60 | Mechanical | 60% | RGB LED backlight | Hot-swappable switches | $69.99 $49.99 at Amazon (save $20)
The Everest 60 has a fantastic feel under the fingers and can also form the base for all your expandable keyboard desires. [[link]] A hot-swappable switch base means you can swap out its switches until your heart's content, and it has silicone and foam dampening, great stabilizers, RGB lighting, thick PBT keycaps, and pre-lubed switches. The whole shebang, for those looking to hear that glorious "thock". All for $50. Just remember this is a 60% keyboard, so you don't get many extra keys such as Ins or PgUp/PgDn.

Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed | Mechanical | Wireless | 65% layout | 200-hour battery | $179.99 $90.55 at Amazon (save $89.44)
Razer's really stepped it up in the mechanical keyboard department over the past few years. The V3 Mini HyperSpeed is not only a great-looking keyboard, its yellow switches also feel and sound great. Plus, its 65% form factor is great for saving space.

8BitDo Ultimate | 2.4 GHz Wireless | Charging Dock | $49.99 $39.99 at Amazon (save $10)
As with other 8BitDo controllers, this Ultimate one's primary selling point is its build quality and satisfying touchables (buttons, triggers, sticks), but it's also incredibly comfy, has back paddles, and very decent battery life. Throw in the charging stand for $56 with this discount and the retro brand's modern controller is a no-brainer.

HyperX Cloud Alpha | Closed-back | Wired | $99.99 $81.99 at Amazon (save $18)
This headset has been around for a while, but it's still the best value around, even at full price, thanks to excellent audio, a comfortable fit, and a clear mic. You can't ask for much more unless you're willing to spend extra on a pair of wireless cans. And with this discount, the Cloud Alpha is a veritable steal. It's our favorite overall headset for a reason, you know?

Razer BlackShark V2 HyperSpeed | 12–28,000 Hz | Wireless | 24 hours battery | $129.99 $99.99 at Amazon (save $30)
If you're in the market for a gaming headset but want to go wireless, this might be your best bet. It's not too different from the 1st-gen V2 Pro, which is comfortable, light, and has great audio. It even shares the pleasant physical volume knob on the left-hand ear cup, but this time with some extra texture. Why spend an extra $28 on this rather than the BlackShark V2 Pro 1st-gen? Well, the choice is yours, but the extra [[link]] 40+ hours of battery life and a new dongle swing it for me. The mic isn't detachable, however, if that's important to you.

Adata SE880 | 1 TB | USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 | 2,000 MB/s | $89.99 $69.99 at Amazon (save $20)
The Adata SE880 is a solid USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 drive, offering close to its rated speeds for quite some time during each transfer before dropping—more than enough time for most use cases (check out the comparative charts on this PD20 review for the specifics). If you have a Gen 2x2 port that can make use of it, it's a great choice. It doesn't have any extra bells or whistles, just decent performance for a now-stellar price with this discount.

TeamGroup PD20 | 1 TB | USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 | 2,000 MB/s | $99.99 $88.99 at Newegg (save $11)
This is a tiny portable drive. In my TeamGroup PD20 mini review, I concluded that its inability to maintain its peak speeds for as long as some other drives (such as the SE880 above) is more than justified by its portability, and I stand by that. It stays fast enough for long enough for most use cases, and its dinkiness is a boon for anyone looking to travel with it. It even has a hoop to attach it to a keyring.

Govee Glide Hexa Light Pack of 10 | $179.99 $99.99 at Amazon (save $80)
It's rare to get such high-quality hex lights for under $100, so this $80 discount was always going to put this Govee 10-pack on this list. It comes with the whole slew of smart app and music sync capabilites, too, of [[link]] course.

Nanoleaf Essentials Smart LED color-changing Light Bulb | $49.99 $29.98 at Amazon (save $20.01)
These bulbs, or any LED color-changing bulb, if they're not being used in your overhead light, are fantastic to replace your lamp bulbs with to bring more personalization to any room. For a pack of three, this is a pretty great saving, and it means you can have more color in all my rooms rather than just where you play.

XVX Shine Through Keycaps | Gradient Seaweed Green| $35.99 $15.99 at Amazon (save $20)
This is a great saving if you want to shake up the look of your whole keyboard. The subtle gradient is an attractive addition to any setup and means you're more open to a variety of aesthetics. Plus, the seaweed color's pretty zen, don't you think?
