Alienware RTX 4090 PC Discounts Below $3,000

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 a price point in months. With the recent price resurgence of standalone RTX 4090 graphics cards (now exceeding $2,000), building a comparable PC yourself becomes less cost-effective. This pre-built option also includes the 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 system features the top-performing Intel Core i9-14900KF gaming CPU, excelling in both gaming and productivity tasks. While known for its heat output, the included 240mm AIO liquid cooler effectively manages temperatures. The RTX 4090 GPU, the most powerful currently available, delivers unparalleled performance, enabling 4K gaming at ultra settings with ray tracing enabled, even on the most demanding titles. Its 24GB GDDR6X VRAM also makes it ideal for AI applications. As Chris Coke noted in his RTX 4090 review, the card's performance justifies its cost, even before this significant discount.

Regarding the RTX 5000 Series:

NVIDIA's upcoming RTX 5000 series GPUs, launching late January, will likely offer increased performance. However, expect higher prices (RTX 5090 projected at $2,000) and potential availability issues. The RTX 5080, while priced at $999, may also suffer from limited stock. While promising, it's likely to have less VRAM (16GB vs. 24GB) than the 4090.

Alienware R16 Chassis:

The R16 chassis, 40% smaller than previous models, utilizes an efficient airflow design. Air intake is via side vents and a front 120mm fan, with exhaust through a rear 120mm fan and two top 120mm fans. The 240mm AIO cooler radiator mounts to the top fans. Alienware's liquid cooling solution is demonstrably superior to their standard air cooling. Note that Dell's new Area 51 chassis (CES 2025) is visually similar to the R16.
