Dell is offering a good deal on an Alienware Aurora R13 gaming desktop PC with an RTX 30 series GPU. It's normally priced at $2020.99, but right now you can get it for under $1700. You also get a free Alienware wireless gaming mouse upgrade ($99 value). 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.
New Alienware Aurora R13 Intel Core i7-12700 Alder Lake RTX 3060 Ti Gaming PC for $1681.99
This particular config comes equipped with a new 12th gen Intel Core i7-12700F Alder-Lake 12-core processor, 16GB of DDR5-4400MHz RAM, a generously sized 1TB SSD, and the new RTX 3060 Ti GPU. The RTX 3060 Ti is about as powerful as the previous generation's RTX 2080 SUPER; it's more than powerful enough to handle any game at up to 1440p.
The latest Intel Core i7 Alder Lake CPU is currently the king of gaming processors; it is significantly more powerful than any of the previous Intel CPUs before it and it eclipses all similarly priced AMD processors in gaming and (in most cases) workstation performance. One of the disadvantages of jumping to the Intel Alder Lake platform is that you need an all new motherboard and RAM. Fortunately, if you go the prebuilt route, all of that is taken care of for you. The Dell XPS boasts an Intel Z960 chipset motherboard that supports the Alder Lake CPU as well as PCI-E 5.0 for your RTX 30 series video card and beyond, plus you get 16GB of the new DDR5-4400MHz RAM.
