the holidays for most of us are upon us and like always that means deals now to be completely honest and transparent these videos never really do very well with international audiences since Black Friday is inherently in American tradition and kind of dumb one at that so most of us tech youtubers create these in hopes that we can score you Affiliate points via the links below when you buy anything you buy an affiliate link the host receives a small kickback usually no more than about three percent in exchange for bringing buyers to sellers the buyer by the way pays nothing extra and that revenue does help us out quite a bit here at science studio the support is appreciated so today I'm recommending my five favorite deals for the week of Thanksgiving across both Amazon and Newegg marketplaces this video is brought to you by cable Maude and daring their Black Friday so you can pick up an entire kit of cables for your next PC bill bet the sweet price of 4990 these typically sell for a hundred bucks or more so don't wait you'll get the 24 pin 8 pin eps multiple VGA SATA and molex connections you guys know how this works all in one bundle just make sure you pick the kit that corresponds to your modular power supply these are fully sleeve kits so you'll need to plug these directly into your unit click the link below and transform your build into a work of art so before we get started you should know that I've had hands-on experience with literally all of these products I'm recommending or these derivatives of them and feel pretty bad if I told you to buy something that absolutely sucked and there's quite a bit of crap out there also I'm not being paid by any company to promote any of the products you're about to see these are my honest picks based on the prices I found over the week so what absolutely doesn't suck is this 500 gig Samsung 860 Evo SSD these traps kappa at around 500 megabytes per second for both reads and writes and that's a night and day difference over any hard disk drive on the market thanks to 3d stacked flash cells these drives are fast efficient and dense I recommend the 500 gig variant for more conventional builds coming in at around 73 bucks on Amazon or the one terabyte varying for just over 130 check it out via the link below my second pick for Black Friday are these nighthawk ddr4 modules from team I am a big fan of this company the products they produce and while we've all been victims of price-fixing one way or another we can also look forward to price reductions as lawsuits and court orders play out in 2015 I would not have even remotely come close to calling a 16 gig hit of RAM a deal at 120 bucks but considering what we've had to deal with recently I'd say 120 bucks is a pretty sweet deal for a fast kit like this so 200 megahertz is great especially for rising CPUs whose infinity fabric dependencies are tied directly to RAM timings and frequencies I've used this exact kit actually multiple times in the past and even reviewed its RGB capabilities in this video right here just keep in mind that these modules now support several third-party RGB suites so customizing is very easy up next is my new graphics card of choice we've showcased several used cards on the channel at killer prices but if you're more of a peace of mind kind of guy or gal you'll be delighted to find the C vga gtx 1070 for the win for just over 300 bucks on a new egg these cards typically retail for around $400 only rarely overlapping with cheaper GT X 1080 variants I've got several Nvidia cards from EVGA here some of which I've bought with my own money and I've never had a problem with loudness thermals or performance from any of them for the wind cards by the way are among the best in the business and GTX and studies in general are still excellent perfectly viable graphics cards for 1080 and 1440p gameplay my fourth pick for Black Friday is the horizon 5 1600 from AMD by the way you can interchange this with the 2600 in some cases it just really depends on where you look in my opinion the hexa-core horizon variants are the best value CPUs on the market as a filming the Rison 5 1600 is being sold on nuoc for a hundred and thirty bucks which absolutely crushes equivalently priced Intel offerings including the core i3 8300 this is in the core i3 territory and AMD is wiping the floor with them here makes no sense in my opinion to buy a core i3 when you can buy this you'll get three times as many threads solid overclocks and access to affordable motherboards just mind your RAM selection I'd go again with the team group modules I recommended a bit earlier and to play it a bit safer if you wanted you'll be able to enable X and P and attain slightly higher clocks with second gen horizon processors like Rison 526 hundred I'll leak both down below my fifth and final pick for the holidays is the pic Co px 2 7-6 I've reviewed the HDR variant in this video right here and I've got to say I was very impressed with the quality control and affordability of such a great gaming panel from a company I've really never heard of save one other time I reviewed a cheaper product at 1440p in 144 Hertz you can bet this thing will be super crispy and smooth ghosting is an issue thanks to the 1 millisecond response time and 27 inches is my opinion the perfect size for most gamers the only reason I'm not sporting any behind me is because I actually nicked the screen of my review sample when I moved from a little format to this one so hopefully I can get a couple in the future for a dual monitor setup the bezels by the way aren't too fat so it should work out quite well and that's all for this one these are my top 5 Black Friday picks for 2018 be sure to check in stores as well for any additional deals I'm sure Micro Center will be bumpin as well as Best Buy and others but more importantly stay safe you can't enjoy your tech if you're dead or close to dead so just protect
