Update: This configuration is now sold out.
For today only, Dell Outlet is offering a powerful gaming PC with loads of memory. The Alienware Aurora RTX 5080 prebuilt gaming PC has dropped to just $2,575 with free shipping. Note that this is a "like new (scratch & dent)" unit and comes with the same 1 year warranty as buying brand new. You better hurry, however, because inventory is extremely limited. In fact, every other RTX 5080 prebuilt I've written about this year has sold out within 48 hours.
Alienware Aurora RTX 5080 Gaming PC with 64GB RAM for $2,575
Like new (scratch & dent) model with 1 year Dell / Alienware warranty
This configuration features some welcome upgrades compared to the base model RTX 5080 that I usually see at this price point. It's equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 64GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 9 285K is an unlocked 24-core processor with a max turbo frequency of 5.7GHz. It's cooled by a 240mm all-in-one liquid cooling system and powered by a 1,000W 80Plus Platinum certified power supply.
By now we're well aware of how expensive it is to buy a prebuilt with 64GB of RAM. Getting an RTX 5080 prebuilt with 64GB of RAM for under $3,000 is practically unheard of this year. Purchasing the RAM on your own isn't any better, either; 64GB bundles could easily cost up to $1,000 for trustworthy brands.
The GeForce RTX 5080 GPU will run any game in 4K
Performance-wise, the RTX 5080 is no slouch. It's one of the fastest cards on the market, bested only by the $2,000 RTX 5090 and the discontinued $1,600 RTX 4090. This is a phenomenal card for playing the latest, most demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing enabled. The recent DLSS 4.5 update has further optimized multi-frame gen and upscaling so you can push really high framerates even in 4K. More games are supporting this feature, including Doom: The Dark Ages, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Battlefield 6, Death Stranding 2, and Crimson Desert.
