Alienware RTX 4070 SUPER Gaming PC for $1499.99

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 a front 120mm fan as well as side intake vents over the GPU area. Both the CPU and GPU are supplied with fresh air from the outside instead of recirculating hot internal air. A generously sized 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler exhausts air out through the top.

This particular model is equipped with an Intel Core i7-14700F CPU, GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER 12GB GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The 14th-gen Intel Core i7-14700F Raptor Lake Refresh CPU boasts a max clock of 5.4GHz with 20 cores, 28 threads, and a 33MB cache. This is Intel’s newest i7 chip and it boasts a higher clock speed, more cores, more threads, and more cache than the 13th-gen i7-13700 CPU. The “F” in 14700F simply means that the chip doesn’t have onboard graphics (iGPU). That won’t matter if you have a discrete GPU, which in this case is the RTX 4070 SUPER.

The RTX 4070 SUPER video card is a significant improvement in performance over the 4070. It’s the perfect card for 1440p gaming, where it’s about 10%-15% faster than the RTX 4070. The RTX 4070 SUPER also has 12GB of VRAM compared to the 4070’s 8GB, so it’s a superior GPU for AI image generation apps (like Stable Diffusion) and other programs that benefit from large amounts of VRAM. Like all RTX 40 series cards, the RTX 4070 SUPER supports DLSS 3.0 and superior ray tracing performance compared to similarly priced AMD GPUs. Check out our RTX 4070 SUPER review for more details.
