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 for just $2,399.99, including shipping. This price point represents one of the most competitive offers currently available for a prebuilt system with an RTX 5080, especially considering the steady price increases seen across other brands since the RTX 50 series launch in January. At Dell, the next cheapest option for an RTX 5080-equipped PC is well over $4,000. For those considering a DIY build, finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU at a reasonable price is nearly impossible, making this prebuilt system a cost-effective choice.

The RTX 5080 is one of the new Blackwell graphics cards that have been released and are currently in high demand. 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 the best upgrade – it doesn’t offer a significant performance lead over the RTX 4080, though the enhanced frames from DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation do improve gameplay in supported titles. However, for gamers with older graphics cards looking for a substantial performance boost, the RTX 5080 is a game-changer, especially if you're keen on leveraging Nvidia’s AI enhancements."
