The Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 Gaming PC Is Now Available for Just $2,399.99

Dell is offering an incredible deal: the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, boasting the new GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, for just $2,399.99 with shipping included. This represents one of the best prices currently available for an RTX 5080 prebuilt system. Most competitors have significantly increased prices since the RTX 50 series launch in January. In fact, other Dell prebuilts featuring the RTX 5080 GPU cost over $4,000. Finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU for a DIY build would likely cost as much as this entire system.

This Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC packs a powerful punch with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The cutting-edge Intel Core Ultra 7 265F Meteor Lake CPU boasts a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz, 20 cores, and a 30MB cache. A robust 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler keeps things cool, and the system is powered by a 1,000W 80PLUS Platinum power supply.

The RTX 5080 is one of three new Blackwell graphics cards currently available (and notoriously difficult to find). As noted in our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review, while the performance increase over the RTX 4080 isn't massive, the extra frames from DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation significantly enhance visuals in compatible games. For gamers with older graphics cards, the RTX 5080 offers a substantial performance upgrade, especially when utilizing Nvidia's AI features.

RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere

The initial release of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards, specifically the high-end RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, sold out almost instantly. The RTX 5070 Ti followed suit in February. This scarcity extends to prebuilt PCs equipped with these GPUs. Many systems initially listed are now out of stock, have increased in price, or face significant delivery delays.
