Dell Outlet Slashes Prices on Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 4080, 4090 Gaming PCs

Dell Outlet is currently offering exceptional deals on Like New (Refurbished) and Scratch & Dent Alienware Aurora R16 gaming PCs. These deals are significantly lower than the cost of a brand new system, and they come with the same warranty as a new purchase. The standout offers are on Alienware desktops featuring high-end GPUs such as the RTX 4080, 4080 Super, and 4090. These GPUs are becoming increasingly scarce, and with early indications suggesting that the upcoming RTX 5000 series may not justify the price for PC gamers, the RTX 4000 series remains our top recommendation for Nvidia GPUs.

Dell Outlet Gaming PCs Come with the Same Warranty as New Purchases

Dell's certified refurbished systems undergo a thorough refurbishing process. These systems may have minor cosmetic imperfections that do not impact performance, or they might appear as good as new. Crucially, these PCs are backed by the same one-year manufacturer's warranty as brand new units.

The RTX 4090 stands as the most powerful GPU in the 40 series. In his review, Chris Coke praised the RTX 4090, stating, "The RTX 4090 may be large and pricey, but it delivers unparalleled performance... Until competitors catch up, its impressive hardware and DLSS 3 AI capabilities justify the $1,599 price tag for the exceptional frame rates it achieves." Additionally, the 4090 is favored for AI applications due to its 24GB of RAM.

A Note on RTX 5000 Series GPUs

NVIDIA's next generation of GPUs, the RTX 5000 series, is slated for release starting late January. The RTX 5090 promises greater power but at a steep price of $2,000 for the Founder's Edition at launch, with potential availability issues. The RTX 5080 will launch at $999, but it too may face supply constraints. We plan to benchmark this card soon, but it will come with less VRAM than the 4090 (16GB vs 24GB) and may not fully eclipse the 4090's dominance.

The GeForce RTX 4080 Super, an enhanced version of the RTX 4080, is Nvidia's second most powerful 40 series GPU, surpassing AMD's Radeon RX 7900 XTX in DLSS and ray tracing performance. In her review, Jacqueline Thomas noted, "For those seeking a 4K graphics card around $1,000, the RTX 4080 Super is the best choice available. This is the RTX 4080 that should have been released in 2022."

The 2024 Alienware "R16" Desktop Chassis: Minimal Changes for 2025

The R16 represents Alienware's 2024 desktop PC design. Although Dell unveiled a new Area 51 chassis at CES 2025, it closely resembles the R16 in appearance and design. The R16 is 40% smaller than its predecessors and features an effective airflow system, drawing air through side intake vents over the GPU and a 120mm front fan, and expelling it via a 120mm rear fan and two 120mm top fans. Most R16 systems come equipped with an all-in-one liquid cooler featuring a 240mm radiator mounted at the top of the case.
