News:: Memorial Day sales roundup: video game and hardware deals

Is your PC lagging in the recommended or even minimum specs department these days for modern games? If you're in the camp for a new build and you don't want to do it yourself, major manufacturers are running Memorial Day sales. Rounding it up, we're seeing Dell Memorial Day Sale, Lenovo Memorial Day Sale, and HP Memorial Day Sale all offering pre-builts at reasonable and incentivizing pricing.

After wading through the various Memorial Day sales from the top PC retailers we've come up with the best of the bunch, and some are actually just as good, if not better, pricing than going the DIY route. If pressed - we'd say the Lenovo Y710 Cube with a GTX 1070 for $839 is the top pick of all the sales - an incredible value and at least $200 cheaper than building your own comparable spec system. Other contenders include an Alienware Aurora (no joke) with a GTX 1060 for $850, and HP's Power Laptop with a GTX 1050 for only $650, for those wanting the laptop route.

In gaming deals, you're looking at the usual discounts on upcoming, recent releases, and overall dirt cheap games. Bandai Namco's Tekken 7 is only $40.99 for PC gamers - that's an 18% discount before next week's launch. Overwatch's GOTY Edition released on Tuesday this week and is $20 for a limited time (it's also free this weekend). All the while Borderlands 2 GOTY is only $6.79 as is the Borderlands Pre-Sequel, both of which are at historic low price points this week in Deals.
