It appears that this Amazon Prime Day sale and the adjacent discounts at other retailers really will be the best time to snag a gear upgrade before arrives.
However, there's so much to filter through when it comes to gaming peripherals, be it headsets or controllers, or even TVs.

But that's where we come in. We've tested hundreds and hundreds of gaming peripherals, so we know what makes a terrific experience-enhancing one — and I've got a few below, across a few key areas.
If you're looking for a headset, then a record-low price of $344.99 on the usually $400 SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Omni headset will upgrade your audio no end. If you want something to have all of Jason and Lucia's abilities at your fingertips, then a premium Xbox controller like the Asus ROG Raikiri II down to a record-low price of $123.49 (was $189.99) is a steal.
And if you want Vice City to look as vivid and immersive as it can for you, then $200 off the 65-inch LG C6 OLED TV is a seriously good offer to upgrade your screen before the game drops next month.
