Alienware - Aurora R16 Gaming Desktop - Intel Core i9-14900KF - 32GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 - 2TB SSD - Black

Excellent value, maxes out all games I’ve thrown at it. 1000w psu and case design are excellent. Picked it up on sale for $300 off. The first one blue screened 4 times in 2 weeks, so I exchanged it (thanks Best Buy for making it easy and fast to exchange) and the new one has been bullet proof for a month. FYI the case has a slight curve inside, so if you’re thinking of adding a 4090 or another behemoth card, try to find the smallest one possible. After taking out the anti sag bracket and cable management box, the gigabyte 4090 was still too big by 1-2mm. No way I’m cutting the case to get that to fit.

This is my first time owning a desktop, previously I have only had an iMac, so I’m having some growing pains adapting to the windows system. However, so far it has been performing well and doing everything I’ve asked of it. I’m an animation student and got this for rendering purposes, anyone who knows about rendering knows that it can take forever and requires a lot of power, but I had no issues with rendering my thesis and other animation projects quickly with high quality finished products. For example I batch rendered 500 frames at a high quality and it was completed in an hour and a half and 250 frames took around 35 minutes (Lower quality renders would sometimes be 0.07 a frame). I do also want to mention that I have had some weird things happen, like not being able to move around in the finder or things not showing up in the finder when I open it (like not even desktop showing up in the outliner). As well as some other similar issues that show up occasionally but not every time. I’m not sure if some things are legitimate issues or if I’m just not doing things correctly (I’m not the most tech savvy which is why I got a prebuilt so I’m nervous that something’s just not plugged in right or I need an obvious plug in or smth). I’m still in the first month or so of owning the system so I’ll have more of an opinion in a year or so. For now, I think it’s a very powerful system that works great (and looks super cool)!

This has by far been the best system I have ever used. My previous desktop had an I7 and a 3070 which is not bad, but could not max out the graphics on COD MW3 without having FPS drops which made me realize that more games are going to be releasing where I would have that same issue. And a decade ago when I was looking at PC’s for the first time I always eye balled alienware because they had unique looking cases with neat looking LED’s and then I found this system. It was a hard purchase because of the price tag it carries, yes, but I know I am not going to need to upgrade this computer for many years to come. My best guess is I will have it for about 8 years since everything is top of the line. I also purchased an additional 4 TB SSD to add into it so I never worry about storage. Highly recommend this system for anyone who loves max level graphic gaming with no frame drops.

Great prebuilt PC, huge upgrade from my previous set up. Runs quiet, runs great FPS no matter the graphics settings.

Great pc!!! Super fast and awesome graphics!!!!!!!

Love the look. Fast as anything. On sale now, even better!!!

Runs quiet and i can throw anything at it in 4k and get well above 100 FPS.

Amazing machine at a great price. Very happy with the purchase.
