    Seems a bit underwhelming from what I saw on a quick browse.

    Prime day is a scam. Laptop deals can be found year round, you just have to keep your eyes open

    Yeah, a day to get rid of old inventory or fool people into a very bad purchase. The sad part... A lot people go on the hook.

    Warning: Beware terrible graphics card 'deals' that aren't worth your money

    Don't be a sucker. The graphics card landscape is drastically different than a few weeks ago, and GPU makers are looking to offload pricey obsolete models with 'deals' that aren't worth your dollars.

    Can't beat a 2070 deal for sub $900 :rolleyes: Not that the other deals is much better. Scam!

    I actually got what i think is a decent deal on Prime Day.

    Got a Lenovo Legion 5 with Ryzen 7 4800h + RTX 2060 + 16gb Ram for 970€ which is a very good price compared to what a config like that with somewhat decent buildquality like lenovos would go for here in Europe.

    Sadly it comes with the crappy color inaccurate 45% NTSC 25ms response 120hz display which i will have to switch out.

    Dont know how to accurately convert that to what pricing in the US would be but the 970€ (1130$) do include the standard 20% sales tax of my country
