Alienware RTX 4080 SUPER Gaming PC for $2499.99
The R16 is the most current Alienware Aurora gaming desktop. The R16 chassis is 40% smaller in volume compared to previous iterations. It features a simple yet proven airflow design; air is drawn in through the side intake vents over the GPU area as well as a 120mm rear fan drawing air in and a generously sized 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler exhausts air out through the top. A side benefit is that the GPU is supplied with fresh air from the outside instead of recirculating hot internal air.
The Alienware Aurora R16 is equipped with an Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU, GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 16GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 2TB M.2 SSD. The unlocked 14th gen Intel Core i9-14900KF Raptor Lake “Refresh” CPU boasts a max Turbo clock of 6GHz with 24 cores, 32 threads, and a 36MB cache. This is one of the most powerful consumer CPUs on the market right now and it boasts a higher clock speed, more cores, more threads, and more cache than the 13th-gen i9-13900K CPU.
The new GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is 5%-10% faster in performance than its predecessor thanks to its higher base clock speed, higher CUDA core count, and higher memory bandwidth. It still has a long way to go to compete with the $1600 RTX 4090 GPU, but this card gives you more than enough horsepower to handle any game in 4K at high framerates, even with max settings and ray tracing enabled.
