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

Starting today, Dell is offering an exceptional 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 is one of the most competitive prices available for an RTX 5080-equipped prebuilt system, especially when compared to other brands that have been increasing their prices since the RTX 50 series launch in January. At Dell, the next cheapest option with an RTX 5080 GPU exceeds $4,000, making this deal even more attractive. If you're considering building your own PC, finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU at a reasonable price is nearly impossible, likely costing as much as this entire system.

The current-generation Intel Core Ultra 7 265F Meteor Lake CPU has a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz, 20 cores, and a 30MB cache. It's cooled efficiently 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 one of the new Blackwell graphics cards, which have been extremely hard to find. In our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review, Jackie notes, "If you already have a high-end graphics card from the last couple of years, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 might not be the best upgrade – it doesn't significantly outperform the RTX 4080, though DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation does enhance visuals in supported games. However, for those with older graphics cards seeking a substantial performance boost, the RTX 5080 delivers, especially if you're keen on Nvidia's AI enhancements."

RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere

Similarly, prebuilt gaming PCs with these new GPUs are either out of stock, have increased in price, or are facing extended delivery delays.
