There’s really no limit to how much one can spend on a gaming PC. The most basic machines only cost a few hundred bucks or so and may be strong enough to get you through a round or two of Minecraft. But if you’re the kind of PC gamer who wants as much power and performance as money can buy, it’s a good idea to start looking at Alienware deals. Fortunately, that’s part of our job, and we came across this terrific offer while looking through Dell promotions: 

For a limited time, when you order the Alienware Aurora R16 Gaming Desktop through Dell, you’ll only spend $1,600. At full price, you can expect to pay $2,050 for this PC.

Designed to be an end-all-be-all solution for all your PC gaming needs (save for an actual screen), this configuration of the Aurora R16 comes with an Intel Core i9 CPU that delivers up to 5.60GHz clock speeds, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GPU, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB of internal storage. These are pretty numbers on paper that translate to top-notch response times, next to no input lag, and glorious in-game visuals. No wonder it makes an appearance in our best gaming PC ranking.

The Aurora R16 also introduces us to Alienware’s Legend 3 chassis layout, which prioritizes airflow and cooling to give you a quiet and efficient gaming PC. With plenty of ventilation and optional cooling upgrades, there’s minimal risk of this bad boy overheating. The Aurora R16 includes numerous USB-C and USB-A connections, along with multiple speaker outputs and an RJ-45 Killer E3100 Gigabit Ethernet port for some of the best-hardwired gaming you’ll ever experience.  

We’re also big fans of the Alienware Command Center software that’s built into the PC. Use it to customize RGB lighting, monitor CPU, GPU, and in-game performance metrics, and so much more. You’ll even be able to create custom lighting and performance profiles for every game you have downloaded.  

We’re not sure how long this Dell markdown is going to last, so now might be the best time to save this much on a new gaming PC. Take $450 off the Alienware Aurora R16 Gaming Desktop when you order through Dell, and be sure to check out some of the other gaming PC deals we’ve been finding.
