Dell is offering a fantastic deal on the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, featuring the coveted GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, for just $2,399.99 with shipping included. This represents exceptional value for an RTX 5080 pre-built system, especially considering the price increases seen across other brands since the RTX 50 series launch in January. Other Dell systems with the RTX 5080 GPU command prices exceeding $4,000. Finding a standalone RTX 5080 for a DIY build is currently extremely difficult and would likely cost as much as this complete system.

This Alienware Aurora R16 boasts an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, a GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265F Meteor Lake CPU features a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz, 20 cores, and a 30MB cache. Cooling is handled by a robust 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler, and the system is powered by a 1,000W 80PLUS Platinum power supply.
The RTX 5080 is one of three newly released Blackwell graphics cards (currently very hard to find). As noted in our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review, while the performance upgrade over the RTX 4080 isn't massive, the extra frames provided by DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation significantly enhance visuals in compatible games. For gamers with older graphics cards, however, the RTX 5080 offers a substantial performance boost.
RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere
The initial release of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards—the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080—sold out almost instantly. The RTX 5070 Ti followed suit. This scarcity extends to pre-built PCs equipped with these GPUs; many are either out of stock, have increased in price, or face significant shipping delays.
