Discounted Alienware: Save $1K on RTX 4090 Aurora R16

This Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, currently discounted to $3,699.99 (a $1,000 savings!), offers exceptional value considering the rising cost of high-end components. This deal bypasses the escalating prices of standalone GeForce RTX 4090 graphics cards, which now often exceed $2,000. Building your own PC might not be as cost-effective as you think. Furthermore, this prebuilt system includes a comprehensive warranty.

Alienware Aurora R16 i9-14900KF RTX 4090 Gaming PC Specs:

• Price: $3,699.99 (was $4,694.99) at Alienware
• Processor: Intel Core i9-14900KF – currently Intel's top gaming CPU, excelling in both gaming and productivity. While known for running warm, it's effectively cooled by a 240mm AIO liquid cooler.
• Graphics Card: GeForce RTX 4090 – the market's most powerful GPU, delivering unparalleled performance in 4K with ultra settings and ray tracing. Its 24GB GDDR6X VRAM also makes it ideal for AI tasks.
• Memory: 64GB DDR5-5200MHz RAM
• Storage: 4TB NVMe SSD
• Power Supply: 1000W 80PLUS Platinum

The RTX 4090's performance is exceptional, easily handling the latest demanding titles at high frame rates. As Chris Coke stated in his review, "even the $1,599 price doesn’t seem unreasonable for the unrivaled frame rates."

Regarding the RTX 5000 Series:

While NVIDIA's RTX 5000 series (launching late January) promises more power, expect significantly higher prices (e.g., $2,000 for the RTX 5090). Availability may also be limited. The RTX 5080, while priced at $999, might also face stock issues and offers less VRAM (16GB vs. 24GB) than the 4090.

The Alienware R16 Chassis:

The R16 chassis, a 40% smaller design compared to previous models, boasts efficient airflow with side intake vents, front and rear 120mm fans, and top-mounted 120mm fans supporting the 240mm AIO liquid cooler. Alienware's liquid cooling is superior to their stock air cooling, justifying the price difference. Note that Dell's new Area 51 chassis (CES 2025) is visually similar to the R16.
