Gamers are always hoping to be spoiled by the gaming deals that are offered by retailers over the holidays, including cheap gaming PC deals for those who are looking to upgrade their rig. If you are looking to buy a powerful gaming desktop for a good price, take a look at HP’s offer for the Omen 25L, which is down to just $750 after a $150 discount to its original price of $900.

The HP Omen 25L, which is Digital Trends’ top choice among the best cheap gaming PCs for 2020, starts with specifications that include an AMD Ryzen 5 3500 processor, an AMD Radeon RX 5500 graphics card, and 8GB of RAM, which are enough to run the latest games. However, if you want to be able to play games at the highest settings, you have the option to spend more when configuring your purchase. There’s also an option to spend more to increase the PC’s default 256GB of SSD storage.

One of the major advantages of gaming PCs over consoles is that you can upgrade them over time, and with the HP Omen 25L, this is easier to do as you don’t need tools to open it up and replace components with more powerful ones.

Lastly, the HP Omen 25L looks stylish with a tempered glass side, a full-metal frame, and complete control over RGB lights. The lights and their animations may be changed through the Omen Gaming Hub, which also provides access to the Network Booster feature that prioritizes your game’s online connection, your PC’s vital metrics such as memory utilization and temperature, and that has fan controls to keep your rig cool no matter what you’re doing.

The HP Omen 25L is a solid choice if you want to upgrade from a less powerful desktop PC, or if you want to finally invest in a gaming PC. With its specifications and features, the PC is already a steal for its original price of $900, so it’s an even better deal after a $150 discount from HP that lowers its price to just $750. If you want to get the HP Omen 25L over the holidays so that you can start gaming on your new desktop PC right away, you should click on that Buy Now button as soon as you can.

Magnetic gaming keyboards and lightweight mice are hardly unusual anymore, but Lenovo is trying to push both ideas a little further with its latest Legion peripherals. The new lineup includes the Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Legion Y7MG mouse, and both support an 8,000Hz polling rate for players who want every input delivered to their PC as quickly as possible.

Of course, Lenovo has styled these peripherals to be as bold and eye-catching as possible without getting in the way of practicality. The keyboard has a hefty metallic design with translucent keycaps and RGB lighting. Compared to that, the mouse is more tame and traditional in design, but it also has an RGB strip that appears to belong on an alien spaceship. (via NotebookCheck)

However, you'll have to watch a short advertisement before your session begins. Microsoft says the ads will never interrupt gameplay, making this an early test of whether a simple tradeoff can bring cloud gaming to more players.
