Dell (Alienware) offered the best price on a prebuilt RTX 5080 gaming PC for Black Friday. But guess what, it's actually lower in price for Cyber Monday. That's right, Dell is currently offering an Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 gaming PC starting at just $1,750 (it was $1,815 on Friday). It's well equipped with a current generation Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU and a fair amount of RAM and storage, but since this is a customizable configuration, you can upgrade specs for an extra cost. Alienware normally commands a higher price point, but this Cyber Monday deal totally flips the script.
Cyber Monday Deal: Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 Gaming PC
This base configuration is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 1TB SSD. You can upgrade to 32GB of RAM for an extra $100. The processor is cooled by a 240mm all-in-one liquid cooling solution and the entire system is powered by a robust 1,000W 80+ Platinum rated power supply.
Alternatively, for an extra $500, you can upgrade to a more powerful Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor and double the memory and storage. You might want to consider getting this config if you don't plan on doing any upgrades yourself in the future. The upgrade cost is reasonable considering the fact that DDR5 RAM has been surging in price recently.
The GeForce RTX 5080 GPU will run any game in 4K
Performance-wise, the RTX 5080 is no slouch. It's one of the fastest cards on the market, bested only by the $2,000 RTX 5090 and the discontinued $1,600 RTX 4090. This is a phenomenal card for playing the latest, most demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing enabled. The RTX 5080 supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation, which means you can push even more frames out of games that support the technology with minimal visual compromise. Recent games that support it include Doom: The Dark Ages, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Borderlands 4, Stellar Blade, and Battlefield 6.
