Dell just dropped the price on one of its most powerful Alienware Aurora R15 gaming PCs. Grab this model equipped with a GeForce RTX 4090 GPU for only $2899.99 shipped. This is the lowest priced Alienware gaming PC that's currently available at Dell that's equipped with NVIDIA's fastest GPU. Right now a standalone 4090 GPU goes for about a $400-$700 markup on Amazon, which makes getting a pre-built gaming PC a more economical route if you want this particular GPU.

This Alienware Aurora R15 config features an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X CPU, GeForce RTX 4090 GPU, 32GB of DDR-4800MHz RAM, and a generously sized 2TB NVME SSD. The Ryzen 9 7950X features a boost clock speed of 5.7GHz with 16 cores, 32 threads, and 80MB of total cache. This is still one of AMD's best general purpose CPUs, excelling at gaming, 3D rendering, AI generation, multi-tasking, and pretty much anything else you can throw at it. It's cooled by a 240mm all-in-one liquid cooling solution. This is the upgraded Cryo-Tech edition which offers even better thermal performance with a thicker radiator and better fans. It's all powered by a massive 1350W 80PLUS Platinum power supply that can support future upgrades.

Why choose a GeForce RTX 4090 GPU?

The RTX 4090 is far and away the most powerful video card you can get right now. No other GPU, either from NVIDIA or from AMD, comes close. As a reference, the RTX 4090 is about 110% faster at 4K gaming than the already impressive RTX 3080. It's about 60% faster than the previous king, the RTX 3090 Ti. That could very well be the single biggest performance upgrade within a single generational gap for the GeForce line of cards. If you're still not convinced, check out our RTX 4090 FE review. The 4090 is also the consumer card of choice for stuff like machine learning or AI image generation apps like Stable Diffusion. NVIDIA cards are generally more powerful than AMD cards with these kinds of apps and the amount of VRAM is of the highest priority; the 4090 has 24GB of GDDR6X VRAM, more than any other consumer NVIDIA card.
