This high-end Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, boasting an RTX 4090, is currently available at a significantly reduced price of $2,899.99—a $1,000 discount from its original price. This represents a rare opportunity, as RTX 4090 PCs haven't seen such low prices in months. With GeForce RTX 4090 cards experiencing price increases, building a comparable PC yourself might prove more expensive. This pre-built option offers the added benefit of a comprehensive warranty.
Alienware Aurora R16 i9-14900KF RTX 4090 Gaming PC Specifications:
- Price: $2,899.99 (was $3,699.99)
- Processor: Intel Core i9-14900KF
- Graphics Card: GeForce RTX 4090
- RAM: 32GB DDR5-5200MHz
- Storage: 2TB NVMe SSD
- Power Supply: 1000W 80PLUS Platinum
This configuration features the top-performing Intel Core i9-14900KF gaming CPU, excellent for both gaming and productivity, effectively cooled by a 240mm AIO liquid cooler. The RTX 4090 GPU, the most powerful currently available, delivers exceptional 4K gaming performance with ultra settings and ray tracing enabled, even on the most demanding titles. Its 24GB of GDDR6X VRAM also makes it ideal for AI tasks. Chris Coke's RTX 4090 review highlights its unparalleled performance.
Regarding the RTX 5000 Series:
While NVIDIA's RTX 5000 series is slated for release later this month, the anticipated RTX 5090, though more powerful, will command a significantly higher price (around $2,000). The RTX 5080, priced at $999, may also face availability challenges and offers less VRAM (16GB vs. 24GB) than the 4090.
Alienware R16 Chassis:
The R16 chassis, 40% smaller than previous models, utilizes an efficient airflow design. While Dell showcased a new Area 51 chassis at CES 2025, it bears a strong resemblance to the R16. Alienware's liquid cooling solution is superior to its stock air cooling, making it a worthwhile investment.
