Highlights

  • Key Specs
    • Processor Model: Intel Core Ultra 9 Series 2 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
    • Storage Type: SSD
    • Total Storage Capacity: 2000 gigabytes
    • System Memory (RAM): 32 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
    • Graphics Type: Dedicated (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
    • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)

Q: Can the lighting in this Alienware Aurora Gaming Desktop be controlled or at least turned off?

A: Yes, the lighting can be controlled or turned off using Alienware Command Center software.

Q: From earlier questions, included is a 3.5" as internal bay and caddy. Does it also include both the Sata Data and Sata power Cable? Thanks

A: Yes, it includes HDD caddy, SATA power and data cable in case if you like to add an HDD in future.

Q: I see in a Picture that there is a 3.5" internal Hard drive blue dock, Sate data cable and Sata power cable. Is that truly repressive of what we get? Or is thar false advertising?

A: We apologize if the image had caused any confusion. This configuration does not include the 3.2-inch Hard drive, however the drive bay, caddy and a SATA cable in case if you wish to add a drive in future.

Q: What is the voltage of this computer’s power supply?

A: The PSU is 1000 W SFFX Platinum and the input voltage is 90 VAC - 264 VAC

Q: is there bluetooth audio

A: The configuration includes Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and you can connect speakers/ headphones via Bluetooth

Q: Does this come with a sata cable for adding an internal hard drive? And is there a bay fand housing the 3.5" drive included?

A: I can not believe they do not provide blue hdd cartier for the 3.5" hdd. I understand the $6 Sata cable you do not provide, cheap outfit, but there has to be a blue carrier to install the 3.5" HDD. In all the pictures they show it. Tell me if I am wrong.

Q: Does the PC come prebuilt?

A: Yes, All the components listed in this configuration will be prebuilt and ready to be used right out of the box

    Alienware r16 ultra 9 with rtx 5070

    This is my 2nd alienware pc 1st one was a arora r13 i9 and a 4070 it was a great pc. Kinda loud and got hot. I recently bought the r16 with the ultra 9 and the rtx 4070. Its only downfall is only 2 ram slots. Other than that it runs cooler 10 times quieter. It is an amazing machine for a prebuilt unit. And it looks great!

    Great Pre-Built PC

    Has exceeded my expectations so far. I'm about 2 weeks in and it has handled everything I've thrown at it so far with ease. Super quiet in my opinion and performs like a beast. Will probably upgrade the GPU eventually but it's handling business at the moment.
