There’s a resurgence in prebuilt desktop gaming PCs as of late, due to the exceptional inflation on PC components. We might not be able to make AI and data centers go away, but we can still try to find the best prices and deals on the hardware that’s already out there. At Best Buy, you can still find some serious savings on an Alienware Aurora gaming PC from Dell. At only $2,919.99, you’re saving a massive $1,280 off the $4199.99 list price. That’s a huge discount on a powerful pre-built that’ll be able to handle almost anything you can throw at it.
Typically, there is a premium brand tax for Alienware-branded PCs, monitors, and laptops, and this Aurora deal is no exception. This huge price cut brings this particular Alienware Aurora model down to a more affordable price.
This pre-built PC features the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080, the second most powerful consumer GPU on the market right now, according to our GPU benchmarks. The RTX 5080 has 10,752 CUDA cores and 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM, specs that only the RTX 5090 and previous generation RTX 4090 can top. This is a powerful videocard that will easily handle the demands of AAA gaming, even at 4K.
