Dell is currently offering one of the best deals on an RTX 5080 equipped prebuilt desktop computer. You can now purchase an Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 gaming PC starting at just $2,349.99, with shipping included. This price point is highly competitive for a well-engineered, warrantied system capable of delivering smooth 4K gaming at high frame rates. In today's market, opting for a prebuilt gaming PC is the most cost-effective way to get your hands on an RTX 5080 GPU without facing the hefty markups associated with standalone purchases. Attempting to buy a 5080 GPU for a DIY PC build could cost nearly as much as the entire prebuilt system.

Starting this week, Dell introduces another RTX 5080 configuration, this time featuring an Intel Core Ultra 9 285 processor with a max turbo frequency of 5.6GHz and 24 cores. While it offers similar gaming performance to the Ultra 7, it excels in rendering and productivity applications that leverage its additional cores.

The GeForce RTX 5080 GPU will run any game in 4K

The RTX 5080 stands as the second most powerful Blackwell graphics card, only outclassed by the $2,000 RTX 5090. It offers a performance increase of about 5%-10% over the now-discontinued RTX 4080 Super. In games utilizing the new DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation, exclusive to Blackwell cards, the performance difference becomes even more pronounced.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE Review, by Jacqueline Thomas

"If you already own a high-end graphics card from recent years, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 might not offer a significant enough upgrade – its performance lead over the RTX 4080 is modest, though the enhanced visuals from DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation in compatible games are noticeable. However, for gamers looking to upgrade from older GPUs, the RTX 5080 delivers a substantial performance boost, especially if you're keen on utilizing Nvidia's AI enhancements."
