Q: QuestionHow many PCI-E slots does this computer have?

Asked 4 months ago by Fuzz.

• A:Answer The Alienware Aurora Gaming Desktop (Intel Core Ultra 9 285K) typically includes: PCIe Slot Configuration: 1 × PCIe x16 slot (occupied by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 GPU). 1 × PCIe x4 slot (available for expansion, e.g., sound card, capture card). 2 × M.2 PCIe slots for NVMe SSD storage (not traditional PCIe slots, but important for upgrades). What This Means: You have one free PCIe slot for additional cards (after the GPU uses the x16 slot). Storage expansion is primarily through M.2 NVMe slots, not SATA or extra PCIe cards.

Q: QuestionSince this <Alienware - Aurora Gaming Desktop - Intel Core Ultra 9 285K - 32GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 - 2TB SSD - Black> has only one HDMI display port, is a dual monitor set up possible?

Asked 6 months ago by AKMARK5000.

• A:Answer The PC comes with 1x HDMI 2.1 port and 3x DisplayPort 2.1 ports. The HDMI port on the motherboard is usually disabled when a dedicated GPU like the RTX 5080 is installed, so all display connections should go through the GPU. You can connect monitors via DisplayPort (using DisplayPort cables or adapters like DP-to-HDMI or DP-to-DVI if needed).
