As PC hardware continues to face periods of overpricing and shortages, Rock Paper Shotgun is reviving its Anti-Prime Day deals guide. This initiative focuses on highlighting discounts on PC components and peripherals from retailers that are not Amazon, aiming to provide value to consumers without supporting the e-commerce giant.

The guide specifically avoids Amazon's Prime Day offerings, instead curating a selection of hardware that is deemed worthwhile for purchase. This approach allows consumers to save money while the publication aims to maintain ethical standards by not directing traffic or sales towards Amazon.

The Anti-Prime Day guide covers a range of PC hardware categories, including:

Graphics Cards

Deals on graphics cards are available for UK and US customers. These components are crucial for gaming performance and are often subject to significant price fluctuations.

CPUs

Savings can be found on central processing units (CPUs) for both UK and US markets. Processors are a fundamental component for any PC build. The Intel Core 7 270K Plus gaming CPU being held over a motherboard.
