While all the attention at the moment is on Amazon Prime Day, which is running for 48 hours from July 15, Asus is holding its own sales event that runs for the entire month across a number of retailers – which could leave Amazon Prime Day feeling like a bit of a damp squib.

Some of Asus’ most popular products, like the ROG Strix Scar II gaming laptop, have had price cuts, and retailers like Box, Scan, Ebuyer and Overclockers are taking part.

There’s a huge range of products getting price cuts during July, so we’ve picked out some of the best right here. If you were thinking of getting an Asus laptop, peripheral or components, then there’s no point waiting for Amazon Prime Day with these kinds of deals.
