Officially Licensed WD SN850P 2TB PS5 SSD for $129.99
There are plenty of great deals on PS5-compatible SSDs. However, if you're looking for one that has been officially licensed by Sony, then your options just narrowed down to a single SSD. That's right, the WD Black SN850P is the only SSD that's officially licensed for the PS5. Today, Amazon has the 2TB model for the lowest price we've ever seen.
The WD SN850P was made specifically for the PS5 console. That means it fulfills all of Sony's requirements, like a minimum read speed of 5,500MB/s, a PCI-Express Gen4x4 interface, and a slim yet effective heatsink that fits within the confines of the PS5 bay. Because it's officially licensed, the WD SN850P is the only SSD that's allowed to have the PS5 logo gloriously emblazoned. No, you'll never see it once it's installed and the PS5 is closed up and no, it won't make your PS5 any more special, but it's there.
34" LG UltraGear GP38A 3440x1440 Nano IPS Gaming Monitor for $549
The LG UltraGear GP38A is a 34" monitor that boasts a 3440x1440 21:9 ultra-wide resolution with a slight curve (nothing too aggressive). It features a 1ms response time, up to 160Hz overclocked refresh rate, and both AMD FreeSync Premium and G-SYNC certification. LG's Nano IPS technology is similar to QLED technology in that there's another layer on the display that enhances color and increases color range. Instead of using quantum dots, though it uses nanoparticles. This is a superior panel to the standard IPS panels you'll find in other gaming monitors or in LG's lower end UltraGear monitors The GP38A is also DisplayHDR 400 certified, meaning it has been tested to display a minimum peak brightness of 400 nits.
Club Mocchi-Mocchi Waddle Dee and Kirby 6" Plushes for Under $14
If you're a big Kirby fan, then you don't want to miss out on these adorable plushies from Club Mocchi-Mocchi. The 6" Waddle Dee and 6" Kirby with Heart stuffed plushes have been discounted to under $14. The prices are already pretty low even at MSRP, so we don't see discounts on these items too often.
Lenovo Legion Pro 5 Gen 8 16" QHD+ AMD Ryzen 7 7745X RTX 4070 Gaming Laptop for $1336.49
Lenovo has this Lenovo Legion Pro 5 Gen 8 16" RTX 4070 Gaming Laptop for only $1336.49 after $370 in instant discounts and two stackable coupon codes "EXTRA5" and "BUYMOREOFFER". This is a very competitive price for an RTX 4070 equipped gaming laptop, and Lenovo Legion Pro gaming laptops are highly rated for their rugged build quality, ample cooling, top notch performance, and an excellent warranty.
The RTX 4070 mobile GPU performs on par with the RTX 3080. It's a little bit faster than the RTX 3070 Ti but not quite as powerful as the RTX 3080 Ti. You'll need this kind of power to run games comfortable on the laptop's beefed up 2560x1600 or QHD+ display. Compared to RTX 30 series cards, RTX 40 series cards also support new features like DLSS 3.0, which is essentially DLSS 2.0 plus frame generation. For games that support it (like Diablo 4) this can be a pretty signifcant FPS increase over even DLSS 2.0.
20% Off LEGO Technic McLaren Formula 1 Race Car
Here's a great LEGO kit geared towards adults. The LEGO Shop is offering a 20% discount on the LEGO Technic Formula 1 Race Car 1,4340-piece set. It's normally $199.99 but you can get it now for $159.99. The best thing about this race car is its scale. This is no small model, measuring over 2ft long. LEGO Technic designers worked closely with McLaren to make a faithful replica down to the interior details, like the V6 cylinder engine with moving pistons, steering, suspension and differential.
Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 8 AMD Ryzen 9 RTX 4070 Ti PC for $1857
Use stackable codes "EXTRA5" and "BUYMOREOFFER" to get this price. The RTX 4070 Ti performs better than the RTX 3090 and way better than the RTX 3080. Compared to AMD's best card, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX, it only performs slighly worse without ray tracing, but it performs better with ray tracing enabled. It also supports DLSS 3.0 (DLSS 2.0 + frame generation), something both the AMD cards and GeForce RTX 30 series lack, and that increases the performance gap for games that support it. It's still a solid card for 4K gaming and significantly cheaper than the RTX 4080 or 4090.
36% Off Sony INZONE H7 Wireless Gaming Headset
Amazon currently has the Sony INZONE H7 wireless gaming headset for PS5 for only $148.00. That is nearly a 40% price drop and the same price we saw during Amazon Prime Day. This headset is a pretty big step up from the Pulse 3D headset. The Sony INZONE H7 is styled similar to the PS5 with the trademark white and black color scheme, but it's just as compatible for the PC as it is on the PS5. The INZONE H7 features a better build quality than the Pulse 3D headset with more cushioning on the headband and earcups for comfortable extended gaming sessions. It also has dual connections (WiFi and Bluetooth) for simulatenous pairing to two separate devices. The audio quality is improved over the Pulse 3D headset as well and battery life has been upgraded to a respectable 40 hours on a single charge.
