The Alienware Aurora R16 might be the best value way to grab an RTX 4090 this Black Friday, especially if you're building a 4K gaming PC anyway.

The main problem with Alienware gaming PCs is the price. They're normally very expensive, far more so than they really should be, but Dell's done the right thing here and hacked $

The Alienware Black Friday sale is well underway, and you can get your hands on some very tasty gaming PCs for a huge discount this year. Our top pick from this sale is the Aurora R16 RTX 4090 Gaming PC for $2,999.99. That’s a gigantic $1,000 saving on a powerful out-of-the-box gaming PC.

This is one of the cheapest gaming PCs I've ever seen to feature a high-end GeForce RTX 4080 Super graphics card but this machine also manages to pack in a Core i9 chipset, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Put together, these are extremely impressive specs for the price and more than enough to tackle even the most graphically intensive games.

You see that RTX 4080 is a far better fit for a gaming laptop than an RTX 4090. Yes, it's less powerful, but it consumes less power and thus produces less heat. That in turn means the laptop doesn't need to blast your eyes with ultra-noisy fans all the time.
