Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 Gaming PC Now $2,399.99

Starting today, Dell is offering an unbeatable deal on the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, now equipped with the latest GeForce RTX 5080 GPU for just $2,399.99, including shipping. This price point represents one of the most competitive offers for an RTX 5080 prebuilt system currently available, especially considering the upward trend in pricing for other brands following the RTX 50 series launch in January. At Dell, the next cheapest option for a prebuilt with an RTX 5080 is over $4,000. Moreover, attempting to source a standalone RTX 5080 GPU for a DIY build could cost as much as this entire system.

This Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC is a powerhouse, featuring an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, a GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a speedy 1TB NVMe SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265F Meteor Lake CPU offers a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz, 20 cores, and a 30MB cache. It's efficiently cooled by a 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler, and the system is powered by a robust 1,000W 80PLUS Platinum power supply.

The RTX 5080 is part of the new Blackwell series of graphics cards, which have been in high demand and difficult to find. In our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review, Jackie noted, "If you already have a high-end graphics card from the last couple of years, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 might not be a compelling upgrade – it doesn’t significantly outperform the RTX 4080, though the enhanced frames from DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation do enhance the gaming experience in compatible titles. However, for those with older graphics cards seeking a substantial performance boost, the RTX 5080 delivers, particularly if you're keen on utilizing Nvidia’s AI enhancements."

RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere

Similarly, prebuilt gaming PCs with these new GPUs have quickly become unavailable, either out of stock, with increased prices, or facing long delivery delays.
