You can get 15 percent off Elden Ring Nightreign on Steam and Xbox
Elden Ring Nightreign just launched, delivering a multiplayer-focused, roguelike-meets-Soulslike experience, and it's already discounted. Grab it for Steam or Xbox from Newegg at 15 percent off by entering the offer code XVSAVE at checkout. This lets you get it on either platform for $33.99. We previously saw the game discounted by an additional $2 pre-launch, but this is currently the best price available. Nightreign seems like more of everything that was already great about Elden Ring, plus the ability to squad up with up to three players to cooperatively take on treacherous enemies and bosses. The game utilizes procedural generation to alter some of the base game's locales. So, don't let familiarity get to your head to the point that you're trying to take this adventure on alone (I'm talking to you, let me solo her); both its difficulty and tuning weren't exactly made with solo players in mind. That said, our Ash Parrish is having a blast playing it that way. Other great deals for your Friday Since there's now a newer Blink Video Doorbell, Amazon is slashing the cost of the last-gen Blink Video Doorbell to just $29.99 (from $59.99). Sure, it doesn't have some of the new models' most appealing features, like person detection, higher video resolution (1440p versus 1080p), or a wider field-of-view, but it's still worth considering if you're trying to save money. It uses two AA batteries instead of three in the new model. And, if you want longer battery life, plus the ability to sync extra Blink devices at home, you can opt for the $34.99 Blink Video Doorbell bundle that includes the Sync Module 2. Not bad for a measly $5 extra. For avid fans of The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 who can't get enough backstory, the latest Humble bundle goes deep into both worlds with a slate of Dark Horse Comics titles. For $24, you can get 25 comics and graphic novels, including nine volumes of The Witcher, The Witcher: Ronin manga, eight volumes of Cyberpunk 2077, plus multiple art books. One of the most fascinating inclusions is a 1993 comic of The Witcher, which has the first-ever visual representation of Geralt of Rivia. Proceeds from your purchase will go to Special Effect, a UK-based charity that gives to gamers with disabilities. If you plan to buy a bunch of Switch 2 games and accessories, welcome to the club. Also, consider getting a paid My Best Buy Plus membership beforehand (it costs $49.99 per year), as you'll get $20 back for every $150 you spend. You can get up to five $20 promotional certificates on games and accessories. In other words, the membership will pay for itself pretty quickly.

Act fast to save $100 on a 240Hz OLED gaming monitor
I saw a lot of great discounts on PC hardware over Memorial Day, but even though many have ended there are still some killer deals to be had. For example, the 27-inch Acer Predator X27U OLED gaming monitor is $499 at Newegg, which is $100 off its usual asking price. That's the cheapest I've ever seen this monitor on sale for, and one of the best post-Memorial Day OLED gaming monitor sales I've seen all week. This Acer Predator gaming monitor offers an adjustable 27-inch (2560 x 1440 pixels) OLED panel with up to a 240Hz refresh rate and support for AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, so it's great for gaming. Plus, it supports HDR and comes with a built-in KVM switch. And while $500 is still a little pricey for a 27-inch gaming monitor that's not 4K, I think the fact you're getting an HDR-capable OLED panel is what makes this display worth buying. Ever since I switched from IPS to OLED I've hated going back, because the striking brights, inky blacks and sharp contrast you get on a good OLED panel blows non-OLED displays out of the water when playing games or watching movies. Plus, I kind of think the 1440p resolution can be a strength of this display because it hits a nice middle ground between 1080p and 4K gaming. You get more pixels than standard 1080p, but you don't need an incredibly beefy gaming PC to run the best PC games at high framerates on a 1440p display. You should be able to game seamlessly at high speed too thanks to this monitor's 240Hz refresh rate and support for AMD FreeSync Premium Pro. It's also a good monitor for day-to-day productivity thank to its included KVM switch, and the built-in 5W stereo speakers are nice to have when you're lacking a pair of the best computer speakers. This monitor sports both DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 ports, so you can plug in a modern console and count on full support for variable refresh rates and other HDMI 2.1-limited features. Plus, the display is adjustable, so you can tilt, swivel and raise or lower it a bit for optimal comfort.

4 graphics cards you should consider instead of the RTX 5060
Nvidia's RTX 5060 is finally here, and many people hoped it'd put up a fight against some of the best graphics cards. Does it really, though? Reviewers are split on the matter. Alas, I'm not here to judge the card. I'm here to show you some alternatives. While Nvidia's xx60 cards typically become some of the most popular GPUs of any given generation, they're not the only option you have right now. The RTX 5060 might not even be the best option at that price point. Below, I'll walk you through four GPUs that I think you should buy instead of the RTX 5060. Recommended Videos Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 I'm not sure whether this will come as a surprise or not, but based on current pricing and benchmarks, the GPU I recommend buying instead of the RTX 5060 is its last-gen equivalent. The RTX 4060 is one of the last RTX 40-series graphics cards that are still readily available around MSRP. I found one for $329 at Newegg, and it's an overclocked model, meaning slightly faster performance than the base version. However, you might as well just buy a used RTX 4060 if you find it from a trustworthy source, as that'll cost you a whole lot less. The RTX 5060 and the RTX 4060 have a lot in common. Spec-wise, they're not at all far apart, although Nvidia's newer Blackwell architecture and the switch to GDDR7 VRAM give the newer GPU a bit more oomph. But, unfortunately, both cards share the same 8GB RAM — an increasingly small amount in today's gaming world — and the same narrow 128-bit bus. Some reviewers note that the RTX 5060 isn't far ahead of the RTX 4060 in raw performance. The newer card gets the full benefit of Nvidia's Multi-Frame Generation, though. Overall, they're pretty comparable, but if you can score a used RTX 4060 for cheap, I'd go for it. AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT (or the RX 9060 XT) I wasn't a big fan of the RX 7600 XT 16GB upon launch, and I still have some beef with that card. Much like Nvidia's options, AMD equipped its mainstream GPU with a really narrow memory interface, stifling the bandwidth and holding back its performance. Still, in the current climate, I'll take that 16GB with the 128-bit bus over a card that has the same interface and only sports 8GB VRAM. The cheapest RX 7600 XT 16GB costs around $360, and you can find it on the shelves with ease. But it's the same scenario here — if you can find it used from a trustworthy source, it might be worth it, assuming you're on a tight budget. The state of the GPU market as of late has made me appreciate second-hand GPUs a lot more. The RX 7600 XT is slower than the RTX 5060, and it'll fall behind in ray tracing, but it gives you plenty of RAM where Nvidia's card offers very little. That alone makes it worthy of your consideration. AMD's upcoming RX 9060 XT could be a great option here, too. I expect it to offer better ray tracing capabilities than the RX 7600 XT, and it'll have the same $300 price tag as Nvidia's RTX 5060. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB If your budget is a little bit flexible, you could go one level up and get the RTX 5060 Ti with 16GB of RAM. Unfortunately, the cheapest options are at around $479 right now, which is well over the MSRP and a whopping $180 more than the RTX 5060. However, for that price, you'll get yourself a GPU that's better suited to stand the test of time. With 16GB of video memory and the full benefit of GDDR7 RAM, the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB offers an upgrade over the last-gen version. It's not perfect by any stretch, though. Reviewers put the GPU below the RX 9070 non-XT, the RTX 5070, and even the RTX 4070 when you consider pure rasterization. This means no so-called 'fake frames,' which is what Nvidia's DLSS 4 delivers. That leaves the RTX 5060 Ti in an odd spot. Basically, if your budget can stretch to it, the RX 9070 and the RTX 5070 are both better cards; they're also a lot more expensive. Intel Arc B580 Less demanding gamers might find an option in Intel's Arc B580. Upon launch, the GPU surprised pretty much everyone with its excellent performance-per-dollar ratio. The downside? That ratio is now a lot less impressive, because unexpected demand and low stock levels brought the price of the Arc B580 far above its $250 recommended list price (MSRP). The Arc B580 is a little bit slower than the RTX 4060 Ti, so it'll be slower than the RTX 5060, too. It also can't put up a fight as far as ray tracing goes. But it's a budget-friendly GPU and a solid alternative to the RTX 5060 if you'd rather pick up something else this time around. My advice? Wait it out It's not a great time to buy a GPU. The more successful and impressive cards from this generation, such as AMD's RX 9070 XT or Nvidia's RTX 5070 Ti, keep selling above MSRP. Those that aren't quite as exciting may stick around MSRP (which is where the RTX 5060 sits right now, mere days after launch) … but that doesn't make up for their shortcomings. Given the fact that reviews of the RTX 5060 are still pretty scarce, I'd wait it out for a week or two. Read some comparisons, check out the prices, and then decide. Gambling on a GPU just because the previous generations were solid doesn't work anymore, and that's now clearer than ever.

The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 GPU is $100 off, but there's a catch
Whether you're upgrading your gaming PC's components or your building one from scratch, you should be on the lookout for GPU deals because graphics cards can get pretty expensive. Here's an offer from Newegg that you should consider: the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card with a $100 discount on its original price of $1,360, which means you're only going to have to pay $1,260. It's an open box product though, but if you're fine with that, you should proceed with your purchase immediately as stocks may run out sooner than you expect. Why you should buy the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 is the brand's version of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080, which our GPU price tracker says has reached prices of more than $2,000. The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 is a more affordable alternative that delivers topnotch performance with 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM across a 256-bit memory bus, for supported resolution of up to 7680 x 4320. Our GPU buying guide reminds you to make sure that your gaming PC's power supply unit can handle it though, as the graphics card comes with a recommended PSU wattage of 850W. The discount provided by Newegg on the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card is due its status as an open box product, but that shouldn't prove to be an issue. According to the retailer's disclaimer, while the box of the GPU has been opened, it may be still unused or very slightly used. The graphics card has been inspected to ensure that it's in working condition though, so buy it with confidence. The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card actually already provides fantastic value at its original price of $1,360, so it's a steal at its lowered price of $1,260 from Newegg for savings of $100. The catch is that it's an open box product, but with the retailer's assurance, that shouldn't be a problem. If you want to take advantage of this bargain, you'll have to push forward with your transaction right now as tomorrow may already be too late. However, if you're also thinking of buying a pre-built gaming desktop instead of parts, you should take a look at the gaming PC deals that we've rounded up.
