The best Prime Day PC gaming deals in the UK arrive with Prime Big Deal Days, which runs from 00:01 BST on Tuesday 6 October to 23:59 BST on Wednesday 7 October 2026 and is open to Amazon Prime members only. The 30 picks below cover the October Prime Day gaming deals worth watching, led by the ASUS Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT OC at £719.99 and the MSI MAG 273QP QD-OLED X24 at £329.00 on Amazon UK at the time of writing (September 2026).
Amazon does not publish deal prices in advance, so this guide predicts none: each pick carries its Amazon UK price on 29 September 2026, the figure any Prime Big Deal Days offer has to beat. The advice is to shortlist now. Amazon's own guidance is to build a wish list, which tracks price changes, turn on app notifications so deal alerts arrive when a listed item goes on sale, and use "Watch this deal" on specific offers. Adding the same picks to the basket leaves only checkout for 6 October.

How do I become a Prime member for Prime Big Deal Days?
Sign up for Amazon Prime before 6 October, on the 30-day free trial for eligible new members or a paid plan. Amazon UK prices Prime at £8.99 a month or £95.00 a year, and a trial started on 29 September runs past the end of the event on 7 October.
- Price: £8.99 a month or £95.00 a year. Students and 18 to 24-year-olds pay £4.49 a month or £47.49 a year, and students get a six-month trial, according to Amazon.
- Free games: Amazon Luna, the Prime benefit formerly called Prime Gaming, gives members PC games to claim and keep; the September 2026 line-up was 11 games, including DOOM Eternal and High on Life, as reported by Basic Tutorials.
- Twitch: one free monthly subscription to a partnered or affiliate Twitch channel, according to Amazon.
- Delivery: unlimited fast delivery on eligible items, according to Amazon.
A member who cancels before the 30 days end pays nothing; after that Amazon charges £8.99 a month. For a single purchase, a paid month pays off only when the Prime-only saving is larger than £8.99.

Who should skip Prime Day and wait for Black Friday?
PC gamers who are not Prime members and do not need new hardware before late November can skip Prime Big Deal Days: Black Friday falls on Friday 27 November 2026, and Amazon's Black Friday deals are open to every customer, not only Prime members.
- Single-item buyers without Prime. A paid month of Prime costs £8.99, which cancels out a small saving on a £19.99 mouse or a £39.99 controller.
- Headset buyers with time to spare. The buy now or wait for Black Friday 2026 guide puts headphones among the categories with the deepest November cuts.
- Storage buyers should not wait.SSD prices have risen through 2026 with NAND contract prices, so a drive at or below today's price is worth taking in October.
- Anyone with a broken PC should not wait. Black Friday on 27 November is 59 days away.
Sale purchases keep full UK consumer rights: 14 days to cancel an online order after delivery under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, and a 30-day right to reject faulty goods under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Amazon devices are covered in the Prime Big Deal Days 2026 tech deals watchlist, and anything that misses in October gets a second look in the Amazon Black Friday tech deals watchlist.
Verdict
The PC gaming picks most worth shortlisting for Prime Big Deal Days on 6 and 7 October 2026 are the ASUS Prime Radeon RX 9070 XT OC at £719.99, the MSI MAG 273QP QD-OLED X24 at £329.00, the Kingston Fury Renegade 2TB at £264.99 and the Veno Scorp Gaming PC at £1,649.00. Put them on a wish list and in the basket now, turn on deal alerts, and buy only when the Prime price beats the figure here. Storage should not be held for November; headsets and cheap single peripherals can wait for Black Friday.
