In time for Switch Lite, MicroSD cards on sale for Amazon deal of the day

Nintendo Switch consoles are notoriously low on storage space, so Switch owners are always on the lookout for a good microSD card deal. (Plus, the Switch Lite coming out next month will have the same 32 GB internal memory.) Luckily, microSD cards keep getting cheaper. Today’s deal brings a 512 GB Sandisk microSD card down to $79.99 and a 256 GB model down to $29.99. For context, when I bought the same 256 GB model last year, I paid around $80.

Amazon is also discounting some excellent PC gaming hardware on Thursday in a Back to School Gold Box deal of the day. In addition to cheap, lightweight laptops perfect for lugging to class, there are some excellent deals on storage and a few good discounts on PC gaming accessories.

The PC accessories included in this deal are top notch as well. We love the SteelSeries Arctis 3 headset — the wired version is $21 off at $48.99. Destiny fans can save $40 off Razer’s DeathAdder Elite gaming mouse branded with the Destiny logo. (You can pay $3 more if you want the mouse without the Destiny.)

Some inexpensive monitors are also on sale. If you’re in the market for a gaming display we’d recommend one of the models with AMD FreeSync: either the Samsung CR50 (on sale for $159) or the Acer Nitro VG27 (on sale for $209.99.)

For the full list of products discounted in Amazon’s deal of the day, check out the Gold Box landing page. The sale ends at 3 a.m. ET on Friday, Aug. 30.
