Starting today, Dell is offering an incredible deal on the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, featuring the brand-new GeForce RTX 5080 GPU for just $2,399.99, including shipping. This is one of the most competitive prices available for an RTX 5080 prebuilt system, especially considering the steady price increases across other brands since the RTX 50 series debuted in January. At Dell, the next cheapest option for an RTX 5080 prebuilt is over $4,000, making this deal particularly attractive. Moreover, finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU for a DIY build is nearly impossible at this price point.

The current-generation Intel Core Ultra 7 265F Meteor Lake CPU boasts a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz, with 20 cores and a 30MB cache.

The RTX 5080 is part of Nvidia's new Blackwell series, which has been in high demand and difficult to find. In our review of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE, Jackie noted, "If you already have a high-end graphics card from the last couple of years, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 might not be the upgrade you need – its performance lead over the RTX 4080 is minimal, though the extra frames from DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation enhance supported games. However, for gamers with older graphics cards seeking a significant performance boost, the RTX 5080 is a fantastic choice, especially if you're eager to leverage Nvidia's AI enhancements."
