The Best Dell & Alienware Deals and Coupons: Gaming Laptops, PCs, Monitors, and More – IGN

Ahead of Black Friday, Dell has dropped the price on this Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 4070 Super gaming PC to $1499.99 after a $400 instant discount. This is the best value for gamers who want a PC that can run any game currently available, but don’t want to spend to overspend. The RTX 4070 Super is the best graphics card for most people; it’s not exorbitantly priced, and it’s powerful enough to run games at up to 4K resolution (although 1440p is its sweet spot).

The Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 4080 Super gaming PC drops to $2399.99 after a $400 instant discount. The 4080 Super is a second generation card that supersedes the RTX 4080. It’s Nvidia’s second most powerful card and a superior GPU to AMD’s Radeon RX 7900 RTX if you factor in DLSS and ray tracing performance. In our RTX 4080 Super review, Jacqueline Thomas writes, “If you’re in the market for a 4K graphics card around $1,000, it’s hard to think of any GPU that’s a better purchase right now. This is the RTX 4080 that should have launched in 2022.”

The Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 4090 Super gaming PC drops to $3099.99 after a $400 instant discount. The RTX 4090 is the most powerful GPU on the market. In his RTX 4090 review, Chris Coke writes, “The RTX 4090 may be huge and expensive, but holy smokes if it doesn’t blow the competition out of the water… Until the rest of the pack can catch up, between its impressive hardware specs and its DLSS 3 AI wizardry, even the $1,599 price doesn’t seem unreasonable for the unrivaled frame rates that this card can crank out.” The 4090 is also great for AI thanks to its 24GB of VRAM.

The Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 4060 Ti gaming PC drops to $1299.99 after a $300 instant discount. The 4060 Ti is about 5-10% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti at 1080p, but it also gets an additional boost with DLSS 3.0. It is an excellent GPU for 1080p gaming. It’s also more than capable of handling 1440p resolution, although we think that the RTX 4070 Super PC for an extra $200 will give you more peace of mind.

Dell is offering the Alienware x14 R2 RTX 4050 gaming laptop for only $999.99 after a $700 instant discount. This is the lowest price we’ve seen for Alienware’s slimmest and lightest laptop. The x14 features premium materials and excellent build quality, a gorgeous display, and capable gaming performance, although you’ll have to keep your expectations in check given the use of low-powered components. Even so, it’s capable of running older or non-demanding games comfortably, especially if you drop the resolution down from QHD+ to 1080p. Some examples include League of Legends, Starcraft, Fortnite, and Genshin Impact. In our Horizon Forbidden West PC Performance Review, Michael Thompson writes, “Our RTX 4050 gaming machine represents a good section of the PC market. Using my optimized settings, we can hit 60fps in addition to superior image quality and performance to the PS4 version.”

The Alienware x16 laptop is one of the most portable gaming laptops around, measuring in at 0.73″ at its thinnest point and weighing less than 6 pounds. Unlike other slim gaming laptops, the RTX 4090 GPU in the x16 isn’t throttled; that means it should perform comparably to full-sized RTX 4090 equipped laptops like the m16 or m18 in games.

Dell has dropped the prices on both the Dell G16 and Dell G15 gaming laptops. Dells G-series laptops are great options for budget gamers. They offer excellent gaming performance equal to a comparably equipped Alienware laptop but at a much lower price point. They also have better build quality than Dell’s consumer-oriented Inspiron lineup, with nicer materials that include anodized aluminum, and an aggressive cooling design borrowed from Alienware laptops.
