Thanksgiving has come and gone and Black Friday is long over, but some of the best deals on tech still continue to surface online. You can now save up to $300 on a Dell XPS 9570 Gaming Laptop and other popular Windows devices during Amazon’s Cyber Monday sale event.

Currently, one of the affordable deals happens to be on the Acer Swift 3, which is now going for $580 instead of $800. This sleek laptop packs a spacious 14-inch Full HD display and up to 10 hours of battery life. It also comes outfitted with the eighth-generation Intel Core i5-8250U Processor, 8GB of RAM and Nvidia GeForce MX150 graphics card with 2GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory. We especially liked the laptop for its connectivity, solid keyboard, and solid-state drive, finding that it packs flagship eighth-generation performance into a budget-friendly PC.

For those with bigger pockets, the other leading deal includes a decent $300 discount on the Dell XPS 9570 Gaming Laptop, bringing its price down from $1,700 to $1,400. This laptop packs powerful GeForce GTX 1050Ti graphics card with 4GB memory, and the eighth-generation Intel Core i7-8750H processor. You’ll also likely enjoy a spacious thin-bezel 15.6-inch display, as well as an all-aluminum design. Long battery life, well-rounded port selection, and the ability for it to double as a capable gaming PC are highlights for this device.

It also comes with 16.5 hours of battery life, which is very impressive.

Capping off the laptop deals is a $100 discount on the Asus Zenbook 13 and $220 or $196 off various configurations of the Acer Spin 5.

Prepare your wallet — this RTX 5090 PC costs over $6,000

It's safe to say that no one expects Nvidia's best graphics cards to be cheap, but wow, these leaked listings are something else. Otto.de, a German retailer, briefly listed two Acer Predator Orion gaming PCs equipped with the RTX 5090 and the RTX 5080, and the prices are pretty crazy. The PC that comes with the RTX 5090 was priced at 5,999 euros, or around $6,240.

These listings were taken down shortly after they appeared, but VideoCardz snapped some screenshots before it was too late. Both seem to be newer versions of the Acer Predator Orion, and are equipped with Nvidia's upcoming RTX 50-series graphics cards and Intel's Core Ultra 200 series CPUs.

Intel’s promised Arrow Lake autopsy details up to 30% loss in performance

The Core Ultra 9 285K socketed into a motherboard.

Intel's Arrow Lake CPUs didn't make it on our list of the best processors when they released earlier this year. As you can read in our Core Ultra 9 285K review, Intel's latest desktop offering struggled to keep pace with last-gen options, particularly in games, and showed strange behavior in apps like Premiere Pro. Now, Intel says it has fixed the issues with its Arrow Lake range, which accounted for up to a 30% loss in real-world performance compared to Intel's in-house testing.

The company identified five issues with the performance of Arrow Lake, four of which are resolved now. The latest BIOS and Windows Updates (more details on those later in this story) will restore Arrow Lake processors to their expected level of performance, according to Intel, while a new firmware will offer additional performance improvements. That firmware is expected to release in January, pushing beyond the baseline level of performance Intel expected out of Arrow Lake.
