As part of the Dell President's Day Sale, Dell has the Alienware Aurora R15 RX 7900 XTX gaming PC for only $2199.99 after an $800 instant discount. This is the best price we've seen for an Alienware gaming PC equipped with AMD's most powerful GPU. This is an excellent 4K gaming rig and a perfect complement to something like the new Alienware AW3225QF OLED gaming monitor.

The full specs include an AMD Ryzen 9 7900X CPU, Radeon RX 7900 XTX GPU, 32GB of DDR5-4800MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVME SSD. The Ryzen 9 7900X features a max boost clock of 5.6GHz with 12 cores, 24 threads, and 76MB of total cache. This is one of the best gaming and workstation chips from AMD; the 7950X is a bit better in multi-tasking and the 7900/7950X3D is a bit better in gaming but that's it. It's cooled by a 240mm all-in-one liquid CPU cooler as well as three more 120mm system fans. This is the upgraded Cryo-Tech edition which offers even better thermal performance with a thicker radiator and higher quality fans. The system is powered by a 1350W 80PLUS Platinum certified power supply.

The Radeon RX 7900 XTX is AMD's flagship card, and it's mean enough to challenge the crazy powerful GeForce RTX 40 series cards. When you look at raw benchmarks (without ray tracing or DLSS), the RX 7900 XTX actually edges out the GeForce RTX 4080 in several games. At up to 1440p, this card will never break a sweat. Even at 4K the RX 7900 XTX will handle any game out there at 60+ fps. Really the only negatives of this card (and any AMD card in general) is the fact that it doesn't perform as well as NVIDIA cards at ray tracing and it doesn't support DLSS.

Why Pick a Dell or Alienware Gaming PC?

Not everyone is the DIY type, and these days prebuilt gaming PC aren't that much more expensive than building your own computer. In fact, depending on the demand of certain components like the GPU, it might even be cheaper. Alienware gaming laptops and desktops offer a staggering array of options, all built into a custom chassis that's both easy on the eyes and easy on the wallet. The newest Alienware gaming PCs have significantly improved their cooling performance, especially when paired with a liquid cooling solution. Alienware gaming laptops in recent years have been redesigned to be thinner and lighter while still offering the same immense power under the hood. Consistent build quality, available inventory, frequent sales, and solid customer service are the main reasons why Dell is one of our picks for best prebuilt gaming PCs.
