Starting today, Dell is offering an incredible deal on the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, now equipped with the cutting-edge GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, priced at just $2,399.99 with shipping included. This is an unbeatable price for a prebuilt system featuring the RTX 5080, especially when considering that other brands have been increasing their prices since the RTX 50 series launched in January. At Dell, the only other prebuilt option with an RTX 5080 GPU is listed well over $4,000. Additionally, finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU to build your own PC could 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 with 20 cores and a 30MB cache.

The RTX 5080 is one of the new Blackwell graphics cards, which have been incredibly difficult to find. In our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review, Jackie notes, "If you already own a high-end graphics card from the last couple of years, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 might not be the best upgrade – it doesn’t offer a significant performance lead over the RTX 4080. However, the extra frames from DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation enhance the gaming experience in supported titles. For gamers with older GPUs looking for a substantial performance boost, the RTX 5080 is a solid choice, particularly if you’re keen on leveraging Nvidia’s AI enhancements."
RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere
