Retailers start Prime Day early with ~$1,500 gaming PC deals
Prime Day runs June 23–26, but some retailers already seem to be rolling out early offers. Two prebuilt gaming PCs around the $1,500 mark have appeared that carry that familiar Prime Day feel. One is an iBuyPower Element Pro with an RTX 5070 listed at $1,449 at Walmart; the other is an Andromeda Insights AMD Spectra with an RX 9070 XT for $1,500 at Newegg.
Both systems are limited to 16 GB of RAM, and neither deal matches the scale of last year’s offers—partly because of a global memory shortage and other supply issues. The RTX 5070 build offers broader upscaling and frame generation support and includes a CPU with 3D V‑Cache (X3D), which benefits many games and can help in CPU‑heavy titles.
Those factors make the cheaper Nvidia machine a strong option if you value frame generation or play CPU‑intensive games. By contrast, the RX 9070 XT system is technically the more powerful GPU and costs about $50 more.
