The Best Dell Deals: Price Drops on Alienware RTX 30 Series Gaming PCs, New Alienware 34" QD-OLED Monitor On Sale

Dell is one of best brands we'd recommend if you're looking to get a prebuilt gaming PC. The Alienware gaming desktops offer a staggering array of options, all built into a custom chassis that's both easy on the eyes and easy on the wallet. Alienware gaming laptops have been redesigned to be thinner and lighter while still offering the same immense power under the hood. For those of you on a budget, Dell also offers its Dell G-series gaming desktops and laptops. You still get to customize it to your heart's content, but at a much lower price point. If you're not looking for a gaming rig, the XPS laptop is perfect for the road warrior, and the Inspirons are great for students.

The reliable build quality, available inventory, frequent sales, and solid customer service are the main reasons why Dell is at the top of our buying list.

Alienware Aurora R10 RTX 3080 PC for $1999.99

Note: If you are adding to cart and encounter an error, just click on "Try Again"

The RTX 3080 is way more powerful than the previous generation's best video card, the RTX 2080 Ti, and is the best recommended video card for 4K gaming. The RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3090 are the only cards that are (very slightly) more powerful, but they cost hundreds of dollars more. Depending on which config you choose, the RTX 3080 is paired with an AMD Ryzen 7, Ryzen 9 or an 11th gen Intel Core i9 processor, all of which are top notch CPUs for both gaming and workstation applications. Every config has been upgraded with liquid cooling for the processor and a beefy 1000W power supply.

Alienware Aurora R10 RTX 3070 PC for $1499.99

This is the first time we've seen an Alienware Aurora gaming PC equipped with an RTX 3070 priced at under $1500. The RTX 3070 is even more powerful than the previous generation's fastest video card, the RTX 2080 Ti. This is the card to get if you want to push 144Hz frame rates or ultra high settings (or both) at up to 1440p. It's powerful enough to handle most 4K gaming as well. It's paired with some great specs, like a liquid cooled AMD Ryzen 7 5800 processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB SSD.

Alienware Aurora R10 RTX 3060 PC for $1199.99

Note: This config comes standard with a 1TB HDD. We recommend upgrading to a 512GB SDD, either through Dell (+$80) or on your own.

The RTX 3060 is no slouch; its performance is superior to the RTX 2060 SUPER and almost matches the RTX 2070 SUPER in some games. It will easily handle all of your games at up to 1440p. If that's all you need, you'll still save almost $200 compared to the price of the RTX 3070 config. It's paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 5800 processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB SSD.

Alienware Aurora R10 RTX 3060 Ti PC for $1309.99

Note: This config comes standard with a 1TB HDD. We recommend upgrading to a 512GB SDD, either through Dell (+$80) or on your own.

Although the RTX 3060 is a fine card for 1080p gaming, the RTX 3060 Ti is a substantially faster card. In fact, the RTX 3070 is not much better, and most of the time the RTX 3060 Ti is recommended over the RTX 3070 in terms of price vs performance. This card is powerful enough to handle 1080p or 1440p gaming, even if you're gunning for 144fps. It's about as powerful as the previous generation's RTX 2080 SUPER.

Alienware Aurora R10 RTX 3090 PC for $2849.99

If you insist on getting the fastest video card on the market, then this is one of the only pre-built RTX 3090 gaming PCs you'll find for under $3K. The RTX 3090 is only marginally faster than the RTX 3080 and the RTX 3080 Ti, but it does make for a far superior graphics workstation card thanks to its massive 24GB of GDDR6X RAM (as a comparison, the RTX 3080 only has half the amount). It's paired with a liquid cooled AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-core processor, 32GB of system RAM, and a 1TB SSD.

Alienware m15 R5 15" RTX 3070 Gaming Laptop

Score an Alienware m15 gaming laptop equipped with an RTX 3070 video card for only $399.99 after a whopping $700 off in instant savings. The RTX 3070 found in this laptop has a TDP rating of 125W (115W + 10W dynamic boost), which is higher than the RTX 3070 TDP rating you'll find in most other gaming laptops. Higher TDP means more power is supplied to the graphics card, and that directly equates to better performance in games. Most laptops are willing to sacrifice gaming performance in order to conserve power and reduce heat, allowing for thinner laptop designs with more basic cooling. Alienware laptops, however, prioritize gaming performance first and foremost. The video cards are more powerful, the proprietary "Cryo-Tech" cooling is more effective at cooling the components, and the main tradeoff is more weight.

Alienware m15 15" RTX 3050 Ti Gaming Laptop

This is the lowest price we've seen so far for an Alienware RTX 3050 Ti equipped gaming laptop. The RTX 3050 Ti is a little bit more powerful than the previous generation's GTX 1660 Ti, plus it offers DLSS support. It should handle 1080p gaming at high settings on most games without a hitch.

Alienware AW3423DW 34" QD-OLED Gaming Monitor

The first QD-OLED panel on the market

After much anticipation, Dell is now offering the Alienware AW3423DW 34" QD-OLED gaming monitor for $1299.99 on its website. Although by no means inexpensive, this is the first ever QD-OLED monitor we've seen and thus the price point is surprisingly reasonable for the new tech. Undoubtedly due to the hype, it has been going in and out of stock throughout the day, so don't hesitate if you've been waiting for this release. The estimated delivery date has already been extended all the way out to April 30.

QD-OLED technology was a big hit at this year's CES and Samsung earned the "Best of Innovation 2022" award for it. The QD OLED panel uses quantum dot technology to more efficiently produce higher peak brightness levels compared to traditional OLED TVs without losing the color accuracy and range and wide viewing angles that OLEDs are known for. Although Samsung is the one that publicized the new technology, it is Alienware that will be deputing it first to the consumer market with this AW3423DW monitor.

17% Off Dell XPS Alder Lake RTX 30XX Gaming PC

Compared to the previous generation, the new Dell XPS gaming PC is larger in volume (27L vs 19L) and provides more clearance for the CPU and GPU area for much better airflow. That's important because the new 12th generation Alder Lake processors can run hot under intense loads. The Alder Lake CPU is currently the king of gaming processors; it eclipses all similarly priced AMD processors in gaming and (in most cases) workstation performance. Additionally, the new Dell XPS boasts an Intel Z960 chipset motherboard, DDR5 RAM, and a PCI-E 5.0 bus for your RTX 30 series video card. Your video cards in these two configs are no slouches either: the RTX 3070 is the ultimate card for gaming at 1440p at 144fps or higher, and the RTX 3080 Ti is pretty much the best 4K/VR gaming card out there.

Note that these two deals are from Dell Small Business. Fret not, everyone can purchase from the Dell Small Business website. All you have to do is use guest checkout.

Xbox Series S Console with Bonus 2nd Controller

Dell is offering the Xbox Series S gaming console (which comes with one wireless controller) bundled with a second Xbox wireless controller for only $327.99. That's basically paying $28 for that second controller. Considering the Robot White controller normally runs about $60, that's a great deal if you were planning to pick up a second controller anyways.

New 2021/2022 Alienware Aurora R13 Gaming PC

Unceremoniously dubbed the "R13", Dell's new flagship gaming PC sports a number of aesthetic, quality of life, and performance improvements over its predecessors. In terms of future proofing, the Alienware Aurora R13 is the first Alienware PC to come equipped with the newest 12th gen Intel Alder Lake processors. That's paired with a Z690 based motherboard that accepts DDR5 RAM. This proves that DDR5 RAM actually exists in the wild. Your video card options are great as well; pick your choice of RTX 30 series video card, from the RTX 3060 Ti all the way to the RTX 3090, at your expense of course. Perhaps the best news? According to Dell's website, these configs ship out end of February.

New 2021/2022 Dell XPS Gaming PC

Until recently, Dell's only PC option that offered an Intel Alder Lake CPU, DDR5 RAM, and RTX 30 series video cards was in the form of the Alienware Aurora R13 gaming PC listed above. At a cost of about $2900 for an Intel Core i7 RTX 3080 combo, it's out of reach for many people. Now, Dell has extended similar buildout options to its new 2021-2022 Dell XPS gaming PC. Compared to the previous model, the new Dell XPS chassis is larger in volume (27L vs 19L) and provides more clearance for the CPU and GPU area for much better airflow. That's important because the new Alder Lake processors can run hot under intense loads. Like the Alienware Aurora R13, the new Dell XPS PC features a Z690 motherboard that supports the newest 12th gen Intel Alder Lake processors, DDR5 RAM, and RTX 30 series video cards over PCI-E 5.0. These configs should also ship in early February.

Alienware X15 and X17 Gaming Laptops

Dell has launched two new Alienware laptops for 2021, the 15" X15 and the 17" X17. They succeed the m15 and m17 as Alienware's flagship gaming laptops. They also happen to be the thinnest Alienware laptops ever despite the fact that they're equipped with the next generation RTX 30 series video cards. In fact, they are thinner than the "ultra-thin" Razer Blade 15" laptop. The X15 model measures in at only 0.63" thin and 5.2 pounds and the X17 model is 0.84" thin and 7.05 pounds. The laptops also feature the newest Intel 11th gen H-series processors and a powerful quadruple fan active cooling system that keeps all the components nice and cool.
