Alienware Aurora R16 RX 7900 XTX Gaming PC $2099.99
The Alienware Aurora R16 is the most current Alienware Aurora gaming desktop. The R16 chassis is 40% smaller in volume compared to previous iterations. It features a simple yet proven airflow design; air is drawn in through the side intake vents over the GPU area as well as a 120mm rear fan drawing air in and a generously sized 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler exhausts air out through the top. A side benefit is that the GPU is supplied with fresh air from the outside instead of recirculating hot internal air.
The full specs include an Intel Core i7-14700F CPU, Radeon RX 7900 XTX GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVME SSD. The 14th-gen Intel Core i7-14700F Raptor Lake Refresh CPU boasts a max clock of 5.4GHz with 20 cores, 28 threads, and a 33MB cache. The system is powered by a generously sized 1000W 80PLUS Platinum power supply.
The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is AMD's most powerful GPU. When you look at raw benchmarks (without ray tracing or DLSS), the RX 7900 XTX actually edges out the GeForce RTX 4080 and is on par with the new RTX 4080 SUPER. At up to 1440p, this card will never break a sweat. Even at 4K the RX 7900 XTX will handle any game out there at 60+ fps. The RX 7900 XTX is also equipped with 24GB of VRAM, the most of any consumer AMD GPU and the same amount you'd find in a GeForce RTX 4090. That's great news for anyone planning to use this rig for rendering, modeling, AI generation, or any other VRAM hungry app.
Why Pick a Dell or Alienware Gaming PC?
The Alienware Aurora R16 was one of our picks for best prebuilt gaming PCs of 2024. Not everyone is the DIY type, and these days prebuilt gaming PC aren't that much more expensive than building your own computer. In fact, depending on the demand of certain components like the GPU, it might even be cheaper. Alienware gaming laptops and desktops offer a staggering array of options, all built into a custom chassis that's both easy on the eyes and easy on the wallet. The newest Alienware gaming PCs have significantly improved their cooling performance, especially when paired with a liquid cooling solution. Alienware gaming laptops in recent years have been redesigned to be thinner and lighter while still offering the same immense power under the hood. Consistent build quality, available inventory, frequent sales, and solid customer service are the main reasons why Dell is at the top of our buying list.
