I'm in the process of building my PC and I'm curious if I'll find any deals on computer parts during Prime Day. If there are sales, are the discounts typically worth it?

I’ve heard mixed things about buying parts from Amazon because sometimes they send damaged items or even miss parts altogether. I’d be cautious about that. Better to buy from trusted retailers if you're worried.
It really depends on the specific parts you're after. Some items like storage, RAM, and peripherals usually go on sale, but more essential components like GPUs, CPUs, and motherboards often don't see significant discounts anymore. It's a bit hit or miss, so keep an eye on what you need.
I've found that the best Prime Day deals tend to be on used or refurbished items. For instance, I snagged some Kingston Fury Impact DDR4 RAM for just $79 when the new price was over $160. Not every part will be discounted, so do your research beforehand!
Good tip! I should definitely check those sections more often.
Honestly, I've found it's usually not worth waiting for Prime Day if you need something right away. You might get better prices during other times.
A lot of sales during Prime Day can be misleading. They might hike the prices right before to make them look like they're on sale. Be sure to track the prices beforehand to spot any real deals!
Exactly! You might have better luck checking the used or like-new sections for good deals that pop up regularly.
