The Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 Gaming PC Is Now Available for Just $2,399.99

by Carter Mar 17,2025

Dell is offering an incredible deal: the Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC, boasting the coveted GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, for just $2,399.99 with shipping included. This represents one of the best prices currently available for an RTX 5080 pre-built system. Most competitors have significantly increased prices since the RTX 50 series launch in January, with other Dell RTX 5080 systems costing over $4,000. Finding a standalone RTX 5080 GPU for a DIY build would likely cost as much as this entire system.

This Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PC packs a punch with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The cutting-edge Intel Core Ultra 7 265F Meteor Lake CPU features a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz, 20 cores, and a 30MB cache. A robust 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler keeps things cool, and the system is powered by a 1,000W 80PLUS Platinum power supply.

The RTX 5080 is one of three newly released (and incredibly hard-to-find) Blackwell graphics cards. As our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review states, while not a massive upgrade from the RTX 4080 for high-end users, it offers a substantial performance boost for those with older cards, especially when utilizing Nvidia's AI enhancements like DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation.

RTX 5080 and 5090 GPUs Are Sold Out Everywhere

The initial release of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards, specifically the top-tier RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, sold out almost instantly. The RTX 5070 Ti followed suit shortly after in February. This scarcity extends to pre-built PCs equipped with these GPUs; many systems initially listed are now out of stock, have increased in price, or face significant delivery delays.
