Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 Gaming PC Now $2,399.99

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 shipped. This price point represents one of the best deals available for a prebuilt system with an RTX 5080, especially considering the upward trend in prices since the RTX 50 series launch in January. If you're looking for a similar setup from Dell, you'd typically have to shell out over $4,000. And if you're considering building your own PC, good luck finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU without spending as much as you would on this fully assembled system.

The RTX 5080 is one of the new Blackwell graphics cards that have hit the market, and they're notoriously hard to find. In our review of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE, Jackie noted, "If you already own a high-end graphics card from the last few years, upgrading to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 may not be necessary – its performance edge over the RTX 4080 is marginal, though DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation does enhance visuals in supported games. However, for gamers upgrading from older GPUs, the RTX 5080 offers a significant performance boost, particularly when leveraging Nvidia's AI enhancements."

RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere

The initial preorders for the Nvidia GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards, including the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, sold out within the first hour of availability. The RTX 5070 Ti followed suit in February. This scarcity extends to prebuilt gaming PCs featuring these new GPUs. Initially listed at launch, these systems are now either out of stock, have increased in price, or are facing long delivery delays.
