The Nintendo Switch OLED is back in stock at Amazon. Even at MSRP, it sells out very quickly. Everyone seems to agree that the OLED upgrade is worth it. Speaking of OLED, here's a rare opportunity to score a massive 77" OLED TV for under $2K. Mind you, it's a refurbished unit (with warranty), but this is the latest 2021 Sony model we're talking about with HDMI 2.1 and the Google Smart TV upgrade. Last but certainly not least, if you're a DIY PC builder still hunting for an RTX 30 series video card, there are some available at Newegg bundled with select computer components. These deals and more below.
The newest Nintendo Switch OLED model has been incredibly difficult to find throughout the holiday season. It's back today, but only on Amazon, and only for a very limited time. This Switch features a larger, more vibrant OLED touchscreen display, an upgrade to the terrible OG kickstand, an ethernet port on the docking station, and of course new Joy-Con colors. If you're planning to buy one, don't hesitate!
If you prefer to build your own gaming PC instead and you absolutely cannot wait any longer for an RTX series video card, check out these combo bundles at Newegg. Pick up an RTX 3060, RTX 3070, or RTX 3080 video card bundled with a motherboard, SSD, RAM, computer case, or PSU. You'll get a lot more value than spending the same amount (or more) on just the video card alone from a scalper on eBay.
Refurbished with 90-day Woot Warranty
There's probably no other way you'll find a 77" OLED TV for under $2K. If money isn't an object, OLED TVs are considered the best TVs you can buy right now. Compared to traditional LED LCD TVs, they offer better image quality, deeper blacks, better contrast ratio, wider color gamut, and super fast response times. They excel at both gaming and viewing 4K HDR content. In terms of general usability, they consume less power and they're very thin and sit flusher against the wall. This particular TV pairs well with your PS5 since it boasts HDMI 2.1 inputs for 4K @ 120Hz.
Woot! is a legit company that's been around by years. They are currently owned and operated by Amazon, so you get free shipping if you sign in with your Amazon Prime account.
Amazon, Best Buy, and Dell have discounted several Nintendo Switch games by about 33%-40% off. Several of these games are rarely discounted, like Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, Skyward Sword HD, and Pikmin 3 Deluxe. Some of them are available as a digital copy, others physical. It's a great time to build out your Switch library, especially if you're one of the many who picked up a brand new Switch console over Black Friday or the holiday season.
Nintendo Switch Compatible
If you prefer to grab your Switch games on Nintendo eShop, you'll need a reliable microSD card to go with it. Check out this 512GB option from Samsung, which is one of the most popular and reliable microSD card brands. With 512GB of storage, you'll be able to download practically your entire Switch library, as well as any hot new releases coming later this year, like Kirby and the Forgotten Land and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2.
Newegg is taking an extra 15% off this PS5-compatible Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus NVMe 4.0 Gen4 PCIe M.2 solid state drive. This SSD rates well above the PS5's minimum speed requirement, boasting up to 7000MB/s read speeds and 6600MB/s write speeds. A low-profile aluminum heatsink also comes included so you don't have to spend another $10-$20 buying your own.
Dell is offering the Xbox Series S gaming console (which comes with one wireless controller) bundled with a second Xbox wireless controller for only $327.99. That's basically paying $28 for that second controller. Considering the Robot White controller normally runs about $60, that's a great deal if you were planning to pick up a second controller anyways.
The Dell XPS gaming PC is equipped with an 11th gen Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, and the RTX 3060 video card. The low price tag might imply that the RTX 3060 is not up to snuff, but nothing could be further from the truth. The RTX 3060 is about 20% faster than the RTX 2060 SUPER and is on par with the RTX 2070. That means it handles 1080p gaming beautifully and has the chops to take on 1440p and VR gaming as well. That's pretty impressive for a budget $1099 gaming PC no matter how you look at it. It's also future proofed with DLSS 2.0, which can significantly improve your fps without taxing your system.
The RTX 3080 is way more powerful than the previous generation's best video card, the RTX 2080 Ti, and is the best recommended video card for 4K gaming. The RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3090 are the only cards that are (very slightly) more powerful, but they cost hundreds of dollars more. The RTX 3080 is paired with an AMD Ryzen 9 5900 CPU, which is one of the best processors you can get at the moment, whether it be for gaming or for workstation purposes. It's been upgraded with liquid cooling as well. The rig is ready to go out of the box with 16GB of DD4-3200MHz RAM and a generously sized 1TB M.2 PCIe NVME SSD. Don't worry, even the power supply is up to snuff with an ample 1000W rating.
Amazon Prime Members Only
Woot, which is owned by Amazon, is offering $20 off a brand new Nintendo Switch gaming console for Amazon Prime members. We almost never see a straight up price drop on a Nintendo Switch console; if there's ever a deal, it's usually in the form of a bundle or gift card. If you've been waiting for any kind of deal on the Switch, you won't get anything better than this. Like most Woot deals, this one probably too much longer.
This is the mouse I currently use for gaming and I highly recommend it. Wireless mice usually weigh more than wired mice because of the battery. The G Pro Wireless bucks that trend by being far and away the lightest wireless mouse that Logitech sells at only 2.8 ounces. As a comparison, the wireless MX Master 3 weighs 5 ounces, the wireless G503 weighs 6 ounces, even the popular wired G502 Hero weighs 4.2 ounces without any of its adjustable weights.
If you regret not picking the Airpods Pro up on Black Friday, here's your chance to get it today at the same price. This is the newest generation model with the MagSafe compatible wireless charger. The AirPods Pro is considered one of the best noise-cancelling in-ear headphones you can get, especially for under $200. The noise cancellation is considered to be even better than the Bose Quietcomfort because of the natural noise isolating design of the in-ear earbuds. If isolation and sound quality are of utmost important to you, then it's easily worth the upgrade over the AirPods 3.
Pick up a pair of Apple AirPods 2 wireless earbuds for the lowest price we've ever seen. These AirPods include a charging case that you plug in via USB Type-C, not the "wireless" charger that supports Qi charging. You can get it with wireless charging case for $50 more but it's definitely not worth it; few people actually use the wireless charging feature and inductive charging is inherently much slower.
