Alienware Aurora R14 Liquid Cooled Gaming Desktop - AMD Ryzen 9 5900, 32GB 3466MHz RAM, 1TB SDD + 2TB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 10GB GDDR6X Graphics, VR Ready, USB-C, Windows 11 Home – Black

If this has a monthly plan for you I say go for it. If its on a partial sale go for it. If you can spare the money go for it. I say this because I stream with this beast and play on it as well. Never had an issue not even when I got it. Runs great however. I will say this now. The fans suck. Theyre cheap and my tower gets really hot. Ive had to replace them with stronger fans to avoid overheating. But other then that Ive fallen in love with this pre-built. Genuine review. No paid actor. I use this thing alot. Sometimes for hours in a day and runs perfectly fine. Would of put a 5 star but those fans for this expensive of hardware is a tad slacking for my liking but other then that worth the money.

I’ve been waiting 25 years to get my hands on an Alienware system. This one does not disappoint. It’s system fans barely hum during normal games and speed up only slightly during a game set to Ultra graphics settings. For years, I’ve had to check game requirements to see if my computer could run the minimum specs(?). Now, that’s no longer a concern. I can run any game I want and at maximum settings.

It looks amazing and so far works amazing too! Great upgrade to my 7 year old Dell!

I never seen an Alien PC in person, thought I’d be smaller based on the photos. It’s a BIG BOY!

I got this computer on a sale and that’s really the only way it’s worth it. The BIOS is configured wrong from the factory (make sure XMP and resizable bar are enabled), the thermal paste on the video card is applied incorrectly, and the pre installed software and drivers are not configured properly. As is, this computer is great for parts if you can get it on sale or if you need a learning project. If you can find it on sale and don’t mind extra work, you can fix these issues yourself. I recommend GamersNexus YouTube channel. Search Alienware on their channel. They document most of the issues and show you how to correct them (the ones that can be corrected anyway). Also, they don’t talk about it, but uninstall all pre installed software. Including the Alienware Command Center and Nvidia geforceexperience. The manufacturer does not install it properly and they will not work unless you uninstall and install the latest version from the support site. For Geforce experience, download and install directly from nvidia’s site. The one on Dell/Alienware’s support site does not work. You’re welcome. Correcting the video card takes the most time and effort. You’ll need to disassemble your video card, remove some part stickers, and repaste. Hopefully this post will save you the time I’ll never get back. If you don’t want to put in the time or can’t find this PC on sale, I recommend you move on and filter your search to NOT include Dell or Alienware.

Love it so far but its odd shape makes it bigger than your average pc. Had to buy a new desk to fit it.

Straight out of the box, it did not power on. Called Alienware/Dell customer service and they had me remove all components and retest after adding each component back to test it out. Still didnt power up so they are sending a technician out to work on it. The customer service tech assumes it is a bad motherboard. Update: Technician showed up next day, did no troubleshooting and just replaced the motherboard. The same issues occurred after he did so. He apparently had no knowledge of how to troubleshoot so he called Dell support himself. Finally they all gave up and decided it would be best to send the POS to the dell service center for repairs. They sent a box which was undersized for the alienware case. I miss the original Alienware company before the dell monster ate it.

Plug and play, 3080 handles everything with ease(video editing/ games/ tools). You can play any game on 1440p getting above 150 to 200 fps. New case and liquid cooling is great for thermals. You also get 1 year dell warranty not sure why there are some negative reviews, I mean you get a dead pc, return it or check with dell. Dell support gets your drivers and softwares up-to date. The new case is awesome and looks crazy. Get it before they’re gone, you won’t regret this purchase.

I bought a intel i5 12300kf about a year and a half ago and after downloading the games that i wanted and could easily run them with the 3060 that was with it started bottlenecking and couldnt handle anything. it wouldnt even run the browser when i fired it up. This pc starts all my differnt gaming apps immediately all the while being able to start up any app right when it fires up. Ive never felt i needed to overclock it. If feels like night and day. You know you have a powerful computer when you restart it and it starts all your applications right as you get to youre home screen. AND i have a custom backround screen that is using the graphics.

Getting into gaming on PC and wanted the best bang for the buck so I bought this computer! Very happy with this computer! Can’t even build one from Alienware for this price. Buy it, you won’t regret it!
