Black Friday GPU deals are the perfect way to save hundreds of dollars on your next upgrade or entirely new gaming PC build. Amazon Black Friday sales are live, and we are already seeing excellent discounts on AMD and Nvidia GPUs across Amazon, Best Buy, and Micro Center. So, whether you need a new GPU for a budget 1080p system or have decided to build a new 4 K-capable gaming PC, there will be a deal for you.
What’s particularly encouraging is that both the RTX 40 series and AMD Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs have been out for a while now, making them far more likely to have better discounts this time around. The RTX 5090 is just on the horizon, too, which may impact 40-series pricing.
However, keep in mind that if you’re eyeing a high-end GPU like the RTX 4080 Super, RTX 4090, or the RX 7900 XTX, you won’t see massive discounts like 30% off or 50% off. Mid-range or budget cards might see good deals, further increasing their value.
If you’re looking for recommendations, we’ve reviewed plenty of GPUs here at PC Guide from Nvidia and AMD, including the RTX 3000, 4000, RX 6000, and 7000 series. So you can gauge their real-world performance and make an informed decision. That said, the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 WINDFORCE V2 is 11% off, and the XFX Speedster MERC310 AMD Radeon RX 7900XTX is 18% off on Amazon at the time of writing. So, if you’re set on building an enthusiast gaming PC, this is the perfect chance to get a flagship GPU.
That said, Nvidia 3000 GPUs are also on sale. We spotted the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3050 WINDFORCE OC on sale at 15% off, cutting its price from $179.99 to $152.99. On Micro Center, this MSI RTX 4070 Ventus has only $20 off, but it comes with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle for free, giving it more value.
We also recommend checking out all the retailers to compare prices. For example, the XFX SPEEDSTER MERC319 RX 7800XT on Best Buy and Micro Center has the same price of $469.99. However, the one on Best Buy is a triple-fan variant, while the Micro Center one has two fans. So, for the same price, it’d be better to go for the triple-fan variant for better cooling and low noise unless you’re short on space, in which case we recommend checking out the best Black Friday PC case deals.

Where to find the best Black Friday GPU deals
You can find the best Black Friday GPU deals at a variety of different retailers. In the US, we’ve historically seen that Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg have the deepest savings on the latest models. In the UK, it tends to be Amazon, Currys, and Overclockers UK. Canada is all about Newegg and Amazon. There are exceptions to the rule, but these are where we recommend starting your search.
While we’re optimistic about the upcoming Black Friday GPU deals, it’s not guaranteed that all models will be discounted.
Features to consider when looking for Black Friday GPU deals
The top three features that you want to look out for with Black Friday GPU deals are fairly straightforward. Firstly, you want to consider your budget for a graphics card based on what you want it to do. For example, if you’re a casual gamer, then something on the cheaper end of the spectrum would work. As mentioned, you will have a few cards to select from new and old generations with varying prices. Some of the best deals are often reserved for previous gen, so keep an eye out for RTX 30-series and RX 6000 series cards if you want an absolute bargain.
For anyone who has been holding out on an upgrade or is finally ready to pull the trigger on a new gaming PC, you may be looking at the latest-generation cards. We often see new GPUs launched that year get some form of discount, in fact, we have already seen some of Nvidia’s RTX 40 series get slashed during the most recent Amazon Prime Day. This means we could see even the RTX 4090 receive a tasty discount, a GPU that our sister site WePC tested, showcasing unbeatable power.

Size
Lastly, you will need to take the video card’s physical size into account. Some larger GPUs, such as the RTX 3090 Ti, are three-slot cards, meaning they take up the most room inside your rig. If you’ve got a smaller gaming PC then you’ll want to opt for a two-slot video card. Mid-range options may be the best middle ground here.
When will Black Friday GPU start in 2024?
Black Friday 2024 will take place on November 29th. However, as we’ve seen from the past few years, the Black Friday GPU deals themselves generally begin a little earlier. Many retailers, especially Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg, want to get in early with spotlight deals.
It should be said, though, that the best deals will be reserved for the day itself, and Cyber Monday to a lesser extent. You’ll want to keep the date in your calendar to ensure you don’t miss out. Doubly so if you’re on a tight budget.
How to get the best Black Friday GPU deals
Generally speaking, if you’re after some of the best Black Friday GPU deals then you need to shop around at more than one place. Many retailers are constantly battling each other to offer the greatest discounts. For example, if you have a particular model in mind, check the likes of Amazon and then hop over to Best Buy and Newegg to see who is selling it cheaper.
Comparing prices and specific models is the ideal way to get your hands on the best deals available. No one wants buyer’s remorse missing out on a special saving because they pulled the trigger too early. This goes both ways, too. Amazon itself usually offers its “Lightning deals” which can highlight some of the most aggressive discounts for a very limited time.
For those wanting accurate price comparison, extension tools such as CamelCamelCamel and Honey can provide you with up-to-date market analysis. These plugins are helpful as sometimes the prices can fluctuate around the two-day period. That way, you’ll know with confidence that you’re getting the best deal on the day.
