This year has been absolutely stacked with huge new game releases. What makes these blockbusters so gorgeous? Their insanely detailed, painstakingly built graphics.
It takes a beast of a system to run titles like Baldur’s Gate and Forza, and running them at the best possible resolution can feel like trying to take down your first Bloodborne boss.

But that's not all – brace yourselves for the Kingston FURY 16 GB DDR5-5200 MHz XMP RGB Heatsink RAM. Yeah, that's a mouthful, but it translates to unparalleled speed and responsiveness.
To top it all off, this gaming marvel comes equipped with Windows 11 Home – the ultimate OS for gamers. The price point of this rig is almost unbelievable, so grab one for your setup before it’s too late.

Razer has been one of the most trustworthy names in gaming for years, cranking out dependable gear at a very reasonable price point. This wireless gaming headset is definitely in the Razer family of excellence, but it also combines their trademark quality with innovative new tech.
This headset’s crowning jewel is its built-in intelligent haptic technology, designed with their patent RazerSense. The headset responds to your game to bring you into the heat of the action; imagine the crash of a nearby boulder rattling your helmet during a dungeon raid, or feeling the vibration of your race car's engine as you blast over the starting line. With 2.4ghz of wireless audio combined with THX spatial sound, this headset will engage all of your senses and elevate any gaming experience.
You can grab one of these bad boys for half price on Amazon right now, clocking in at about $100 (instead of the usual $200!).

Umami Cart (www.umamicart.com)
You might remember Umamicart from our list of gaming gear sales last December. This time around, we’re bringing it back so you can take advantage of the absolutely insane deals they’re running right now. If a box full of Southeast Asian delights like seaweed snacks, melon soda, matcha kitkats, and boba sounds good to you, you can even set up a box subscription to drop off deliciousness hassle free every month.
From honey butter potato chips to pocky to any flavor of mochi imaginable, Umamicart is the hookup for all things munchy. Maybe more attractive than their huge pantry of delicious snacks and supplies is the fact that (in most places) they get your order to you in less than 48 hours. You can score 20% off your first order right now, which means delicious gaming provisions for your next long-haul session.

9. GUNNAR Blue Light Gaming & Computer Glasses Intercept Onyx INT-00101
GUNNAR Blue Light Gaming & Computer Glasses (www.bestbuy.com)
You might be wondering why a pair of Matrix-esque shades are on this list, and while they do look cool, they’re more than some accessory item in your inventory. Even with the most ergonomic wrist rest, a Herman Miller chair, and a beautiful monitor, gamers have been suffering from eye strain for as long as video games have been around. GUNNAR’s blue light gaming and computer glasses filter out the harsh glare of a laptop or monitory screen and take the edge off of a long haul session. This pair’s ergonomic balancing technology means that they’ll never slip down your nose in the heat of battle. They come in a couple different retro colors, and you can grab a pair on Best Buy for $23 less than retail during their blowout labor day sale. Besides taking a load off your eyes, putting these shades on before a game will really let you feel that Neo fantasy and help you obliterate your enemies without blinking an eye.
10. Dell 34 Curved Gaming Monitor – S3422DWG
Dell 34 Curved Gaming Monitor (www.amazon.com)
While there are many curved gaming monitors on the market that claim to have various special powers, it’s true that not all of them are created equal.
A solid curved monitor should recreate the roundness of your actual eye, utilizing your entire field of vision and creating a much more immersive graphic experience. Expanding that field without simply adding more inches of screen saves space on your desk, and saves your eyes from dodging from corner to corner.
This Dell 34 inch monitor is top of the line at its price point; all of the function without any of the frills. It’s VESA DisplayHDR™ 400-certified, allowing you to see more detail and color than an SDR display. At $150 less than its retail price on dell.com, this is a deal that could easily level up your gaming environment.
