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

Got it and gamed on it all day and night. Then, after doing the Dell/Alienware updates it immediately started freezing. I read online that uninstalling & disabling all the Dell/Alienware utilities worked for others. That seems to have worked for me. The only other problem Ive had is crackly audio. I tried everything to. Nothing worked. Theres a headphone jack in the front panel of the PC. I switched to that one & that immediately fixed that crackling audio. So, this means I still have the crackling audio problem if I were to use the ports in the back. I even tried an external audio device.

Received computer, set it up and ran it for 24 hours, over night I am guessing it performed windows updates or something but it was stuck at black screen. Contacted dell who, trouble shoot issue and said mobo was bad. They refused to replace entire thing they wanted to send out a 3rd party tech who may or may not be competent enough to basically replace the heart of the computer, then put everything back properly including CPU and liquid cooling.... No thanks. I called Amazon and they had replacement sent out immediately. Otherwise great system for the price.

Pros: When it worked, it worked really well. Looks great, pretty customizable. Cons: Rarely worked coming out of the box. Multiple crashes during gaming (not even for long periods of time). Didnt even have a chance to download all the programs I had on my old computer. One game and some software was all the was downloaded. Also froze multiple times, had to hard reset it. I had high hopes for this purchases unfortunately, this was not it. Sent it back after one weekend of gaming. I would avoid this product.

This thing rocks. Plays all the heavy hitters on ultra settings with zero problems. Cyberpunk? Easy. Total War: Warhammer 3? Beautiful. Fast, quite and lovely. You wont regret it. Also note that I have not had any problems with blue screens or glitches and shut downs like some others have had. Also have not had to contact support so I cant comment on that either.

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

Not sure what the deal was, but this PC had a corrupted Windows installation right off the bat. It would give blue screen after blue screen when attempting to boot into Windows. Fortunately, I was able to factory reset the Windows installation via the Alienware image in OS recovery. After that, everything has been working wonderfully. Hell of a deal on Prime Day, too; about $1k off the usual list price.

I was extremely excited to receive my new PC, plugged it in and no inputs were reading through the motherboard, graphics card or front inputs. I called Alienware support via Dell and they were less than useful. Got redirected 7 times to overseas support that had no idea what a graphics card even was so I had to call a friend that happened to know more than the people that get paid to do this. After all that the fix turned out to not be terrible. I just had to move the ram around (It had gotten loose in shipping) and factory restart the power supply and the PC runs like a dream. Very happy with the gaming experience so far.

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.

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.

Youre paying for the name. Its fine, but its not worth what theyre asking for it, and I got mine on sale. You can find the same quality for half the price
