Amazon’s Prime Day 2025 sales event is in full swing and there are tons of great deals on desktop PCs available. This year, Prime Day runs from July 8 to July 11, and includes solid discounts on everything from gaming PCs to all-in-ones to traditional mainstream desktop computers. You’ll need to be a Prime member to take advantage of Amazon’s steep discounts. If you aren’t a member already, check out our guide for how to get Amazon Prime for free.

I’ve been tracking and writing about the best computer deals year-round for a long time now, and at PCWorld I’ve used this knowledge to curate a list of the best available computer deals across the internet specifically for this Prime Day. Other retailers have jumped in on the Prime Day action, and some of the best desktop PC deals can even be found outside of Amazon, so I’ve included those deals too.

My top picks:

For those on a budget, the CyberPowerPC Gamer Master deal for $180 off is currently the deal to get on Prime Day right now. It packs a Ryzen 7 8700F and the latest-gen RTX 5060 Ti making it perfect for high framerate 1080p gaming at an affordable price. You could instead opt for the CyberPowerPC Gamer Xtreme which swaps out the Ryzen CPU for an Intel Core i7-14700F giving you a bit better gaming performance for a bit more money.

Dell is running fantastic deals on their Alienware line of gaming PCs, but one of the best is the Alienware Aurora for $400 off on its website. Rocking a Core Ultra 7 265F and RTX 5070 Ti, this is a killer value for a strong midrange build with a latest-gen GPU. Alternatively, if you want something even more powerful than the other Alienware Aurora model for $725 is the cheapest you’re going to get for a gaming desktop with these higher-end components—a Core Ultra 9 285K and RTX 5080 plus an epic 64GB of RAM are a steal at this price.

My top picks:

Dell’s reliable 24 AiO is $200 off on its website right now. The always dependable all-in-one comes loaded with the latest-gen Core 5 120U and a handy 1080p touch display.

Alternatively, the new HP OmniStudio X AiO model for $460 off on HP’s website is a step up from the Dell if you prefer spending a tad more for more power. The latest all-in-one from HP still comes with a nice 1080p touch display but is powered by the beefier Core Ultra 7 155H CPU and twice the onboard SSD storage.

FAQ

What type of desktop computer should I get?

You’ll see a ton of options when searching for a desktop computer, but they all mainly fit into four main categories: gaming PCs, mainstream PCs (towers or mini PCs), and all-in-ones (AiO). Which you should end up buying is entirely dependent upon what your needs are and what you want to do with your computer.

If you’re looking for something that will work in a home office or family room, then a mainstream PC or AiO with a solid CPU and a decent amount of RAM and storage is probably the way to go. If gaming is your main concern, a gaming desktop PC can offer a lot more bang for your buck than a laptop and you should prioritize getting the best GPU possible.

How much processing power will I need in a desktop computer?

If you’re after CPU power, look for processors with higher numerical labels. Intel processors are available in the newer Core Ultra 3, 5, 7, or 9, and the older Core i3, i5, i7, and i9. AMD processors are available in the Ryzen 5000, 7000, 8000, and 9000 versions. Generally speaking, the higher the number, the more powerful the CPU for both manufacturers.

If you don’t need a ton of power, Intel Core Ultra 5 or Core i5 processors are your best bet, as they offer good performance at a decent price. You can get along just fine with a Core Ultra 3 or Core i3 for b
