Best Cyber Monday deals on PC components, monitors, networking gear, and more

Show More

While you can certainly find good deals this year, they’re not nearly as plentiful or tantalizing as last year, due to demand and a flood of recent product launches. On average, expect to spend about 10 percent more compared to 2019.

Still, with some digging around, we’re unearthing solid discounts on items that we particularly care about at PCWorld: CPUs, GPUs, monitors, and more. Keep an eye on these lists, as we’ll expand them as sales ramp up between now and Black Friday.

To see everything else on sale right now, check out our round-up of the best Cyber Monday 2020 deals.
