Prime Day is here again, and while it’s not quite as exciting as Black Friday (we guess that depends on who you ask), there are still plenty of deals worth checking out.

The official Prime Big Deal Days shopping ~extravaganza~ (cue RuPaul’s voice) doesn’t start until October 8, but Amazon’s been throwing pre-Prime Day discounts our way since last week, including deals on headphones and speakers, soundbars, and, of course, gaming consoles and video games.

Here are the best early October Prime Day gaming deals we’ve spotted ahead of the event, which are mainly geared towards PC gamers so far.

at Amazon

$199.99

Why we like it

The Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini is a high-end gaming keyboard that’s going for under $100 ahead of Prime Big Deal Days (usually $199.99). The low-profile keyboard features wireless support, a lengthy battery life, and some of the best RGB customization in the business. If you’re serious about PC gaming but don’t have a lot of desk space, this gaming keyboard is the way to go, and it’s an absolute steal at the moment.

Why we like it

The Logitech G Pro X gaming headset is wireless, can last up to 20 hours on a single charge, and features DTS Headphone: X 2.0 7.1 surround sound with object-based feedback so you can hear your enemies coming from any direction. The soft foam memory earpads are comfortable enough to wear for long gaming sessions, and the detachable 6mm Pro microphone with Blue VO!CE filters make it easier to communicate with your team or trash-talk opponents.
