for Prime Day 2017 we put together a list of tech deals from the teaser that
0:04
we think are going to be pretty sick and we created a forum thread where we're
0:08
curating the best deals posted by members of our
0:13
community no no there's no time for that door Crashers are selling out as we
0:18
speak the only CPU on the deal spreadsheet they provided the AMD
0:23
fx8350 it's not that fast it consumes a lot of power and it's super old but it
0:28
comes with a wraith cooler and even if you buy an additional MSI Motherboard
0:33
it's about the same price as a ryzen 5600 buy itself Corsair's mm100 mouse
0:41
mat is on sale I have no idea what the price will be but it's a good mouse pad
0:45
and it's only $10 regularly so the deal can't really be bad next up we've got a
0:51
couple gaming systems no pricing for these yet either but the ASUS G20 is a
0:56
really nice quiet compact gaming desktop with the GTX 1070 and the discount
1:02
should allow you to grab an SSD to upgrade this hard drive only model side
1:07
note if you're disappointed with the lack of memory and SSD deals this year
1:11
that's due to worldwide dram and Nan flash shortages the more you know and as
1:18
for notebooks we've got the Acer Predator Helios 300 a gaming laptop we
1:22
reviewed recently with a GTX 1060 that's
1:25
already an utterly killer deal at its
1:28
regular price of $1100 $0000 it only gets better from there if you can't find
1:33
our video review it's because it's in Early Access right now but tldr this
1:37
thing is really awesome dual shock controllers are on sale if you're cool
1:42
you can buy this silver one and if you're tasteless you can get this one I
1:47
think we all know which one I'd recommend NVIDIA's Shield TV console is
1:52
a pretty versatile little piece of streaming Hardware it's got an
1:56
attractive ID Voice Control powerful hardware for Android games support for
2:00
NVIDIA game stream so you can run your PC games over the network and support
2:04
for 4K Netflix all of this at 20% off
2:09
and of course you've got the usual discounts on Amazon's own products $80
2:14
off for the echo smart speaker that still doesn't work in Canada because
2:18
Canada and $50 off the tap Bluetooth
2:22
speaker with Alexa so if you wanted one of these but didn't want to pay as much
2:25
for it then you win and while we're at
2:28
it the Fire HD eight tablet is 30 bucks off making it only $50 for a tablet that
2:34
just destroys the cheapest tablet that we covered recently that honestly didn't
2:39
cost much less so yeah aside from a bulk
2:43
pack of AAA batteries that's pretty much what we found but you can check out the
2:47
