Hopefully you saved a lot of money during Prime Big Deal Days , but if you didn't get everything checked off your list, don't panic. Amazon still has a bunch of top tech products on sale for deep discounts. That extends to desktop PCs, where savings stack up to hundreds of dollars on gaming battlestations, compact micro PCs, and all-in-ones. Slide over to our Prime Day mega-post for even more last-chance deals.

Gaming Desktop Deals

Gaming desktops come in various configurations, and it can be hard to hit that sweet spot between performance and price. At a $145 discount, though, this Alienware Aurora R16 build feels a bit sweeter. In a sleek and minimal chassis with stylish LED accents, it's got plenty of room for expansion and tons of ports. When we reviewed this model on its release in 2023, we praised its quiet operation and admirable value, and this one has a cutting-edge RTX 5080 graphics card for ultra-high resolution play.

Here's another decent midrange prebuilt gaming machine from Acer, this one built around a well-performing Ryzen 7 processor that we reviewed here . Couple that with a modern RTX 5070 graphics card, and you've got a battlestation built for today's games in high resolution with speedy frame rates. The case is spacious, with a mesh front panel that spotlights a pair of aRGB fans that keep everything cool, and the back panel has tons of ports. Gigabit Ethernet and Wi-Fi 6 provide many connectivity options, and a 28% discount is juicy.

HP Desktop Deal

Here's an entry-level desktop workstation from HP that Amazon has on sale for 30% off. With solid if unspectacular components, it's an excellent choice for home offices or dorm rooms, as the 12th-generation Intel i5 processor is capable enough for spreadsheets, presentations, and chilling out watching Netflix, and 32GB of RAM lets you keep a ton of tabs open. Plenty of ports on the front side give you hookups for peripherals, and it ships with a wired keyboard and mouse. See how it stacks up on our list of the best desktops .

Mini PC Deals

Pint-sized PCs are a popular choice for people who want close to tower PC performance without a massive tower taking up space, and Acemagic has a wide line of products in that space. We haven't had a chance to bring the Vista V1 into the lab for testing yet. Still, if you compare it with our list of the best Windows mini PCs , it stacks up nicely for the price, with a capable Intel Twin Lake processor coupled with 16GB of RAM and a decent-sized SSD for just under $200. Cooling is efficient and quiet, and a panoply of ports, including Gigabit Ethernet and dual monitor support, make it widely flexible.

Apple's latest Mac Mini is one of the best compact PCs on the market, with the new M4 processor delivering rip-roaringly fast macOS performance for productivity, creativity, and wasting time. In our review of this pint-sized powerhouse, we gave it an Editors' Choice award, with praise for its revised form factor about the size of a CD jewel case (but a little thicker) and a weight of just 1.6 pounds. The minimal frontage is home to a pair of USB-C 3.1 ports and an audio jack, and the back has a trio of Thunderbolt ports and an HDMI output, in case you want to set up multiple monitors. A post-Prime Big Deal Days discount of $100 makes it a white-hot commodity.

This AMD-powered mini PC is a real overachiever, with an attractive rose gold casing surrounding carefully-composed internals including 16GB of RAM in a 4.6-by-4.4-by-1.9-inch chassis with plenty of ports on both sides, as well as an SD card reader for even more storage options. We reviewed the similar Geekom A6 and gave it an Editors' Choice award, noting how well it performed in benchmarking on a suite of productivity apps and how well it compared with competing mini PCs in the same price range.

All-In-One Desktop Deals

All-in-ones are great options for families, because they're flexible enough for kids to use for entertainment and grown-ups for house business and productivity. Lenovo's 24-inch model is a solid deal at this price thanks to an 18% discount. While the Intel N100 processor isn't going to blow your doors off, it's capable for web surfing, media streaming, and the like, and the 23.8-inch display is clear and responsive with 250 nits of brightness. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity, paired with plenty of ports, let you integrate it with printers and other peripherals. Check how it compares to our list of the best all-in-one computers .

We loved our time testing the 2024 iteration of Apple's all-in-one iMac, stating in our review that the refreshed colors and powerhouse performance made it one of the best stand-alone desktops on the market. We gave it our Editors' Choice award. The sizable 24-inch Retina display has exceptional color and contrast, and the new M4 processor is a content creation beast, with an 8-core CPU and an 8-core GPU. Connectivity is excellent, with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 support, and four Thunderbolt USB-C ports on the back.
