Over $4.6k AFTER DISCOUNT
For a 5080 paired with a 285k CPU? 🤣

Idiots buying this garbage deserve to be humiliated.

The case has gotten better looking and it's more user friendly. And is that a standard size power supply I see from the rear. I have no idea if the cables are propriety but form and fit is back to standard, Yeah !

I wrote off Dell with the last few Alienware models being well to Dell top to bottom propriety chain yankers even on the used market.


Nice to see it back normalized for what that's worth. But it's a user friendly step in the right direction.

I never buy new PC's from Dell but in the future I will keep an eye out when it a few gens / years go by as a back up computer maybe. But time will tell if there just another clunker.

And yeah no I would never consider swiping the CC for that much money on a PC ever.

Lol, I wouldn't trust anyone to build by PC in a million years. It's way more fun to do it yourself!

Maybe it is, but some of us don't have the know-how, or the time, to do it ourselves.

Ya know, I was actually interested in buying the new Alienware Area 51. I really do like the look of the new aluminum case although their "positive pressure air flow thingy" left me wondering is this just more Alienware BS like how the Alienware Aurora R10/11 etc had such great airflow? 🙄

What lost me was the about the Area 51 was the price but more importantly the choice of going with Intel when for gaming the Ryzen X3D series just destroys the Ultra7/9 CPU's.

Hell, just 3 weeks ago I could have snagged an HP Omen 45L with an Ultra9 285K, 32GB of RAM, 1TB SSD, RTX 5090 for $4200. I ordered then cancelled it.

I decided to build my own based on the 9800X3D and RTX 5070Ti.

Good decision!
