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

Starting today, Dell is offering a stellar deal on the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, equipped with the cutting-edge GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, priced at just $2,399.99 with free shipping. This represents one of the most competitive prices currently available for a prebuilt system with an RTX 5080, especially considering the upward price trend since the RTX 50 series launch in January. At Dell, the next cheapest option with this GPU is over $4,000. For those considering building their own PC, finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU is nearly impossible, and it would likely cost as much as this entire system.

The Intel Core Ultra 7 265F, part of the Meteor Lake series, offers a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz, 20 cores, and a 30MB cache.

The RTX 5080 is one of three new Blackwell graphics cards that are currently in high demand and 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 worth the upgrade – it doesn’t significantly outperform the RTX 4080, though DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation does enhance the gaming experience in supported titles. However, for gamers with older GPUs looking for a substantial performance boost, the RTX 5080 is an excellent choice, especially if you're keen on Nvidia’s AI enhancements."

RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere

The initial preorders for the Nvidia GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards sold out within an hour of their release. The RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 were the first to hit the market, followed by the RTX 5070 Ti in February. Similarly, prebuilt gaming PCs featuring these new GPUs are either sold out, have increased in price, or are facing long delivery delays.
