Thanks for the review. After discounts, I paid $3200 shipped for the R15 with 13th Gen i9 13900 KF, 4090, 32 GB, 2TB, and three years of premium support. Performs well for my needs (which is MW2, Forza, and Photoshop - that's it), there's nothing I would need to "upgrade" or add from here, and just not worried about the heat. I also love the aesthetics, which matters in my home. I considered building my own, spent a lot of time messing around on pcpartpicker, but I couldn't build one at this spec at the discounted price I paid. Without the discount, I probably would've built.....

I bought one used on Dell outlet for $2700 shipped, including taxes. Had upgraded ram and sdd/HD. I spent a lot of time on pc picker as well, but for the price I couldn't resist. My only concern is the thermals and the dust filters. Honestly idk anything about this pcs filters or if it even has any and, another concern is the thermals. I'll be adding some external fans on the side panel vents as intake fans near the gpu and one exhaust fan at the top exhaust vents. But to be perfectly honest, anything under 90c should be fine, and from what I've seen these pcs achieve that stock. Also tunning the fan profiles should help as well as just slightly under volting the cpu. Hope you are enjoying your new pc.

I don’t doubt any of the comparisons/benchmark results. But I will say that I finally sprang for the Alienware because all those prebuilts like Corsair are just so cheaply made: unimaginative, thinly-painted aluminum rectangles, ready to fall apart. The Aurora is a very different story: heavy, glossy, much attention to little details.

I really like the design and build quality of Alienwares laptops and at CES it looks like Alienware have made some nice changes and upgrades to their laptops, hopefully you can get some of those in to test them but I don’t think I would get their pre-built PC’s. I would definitely go with the Corsair or another better quality less expensive one. Also anything Alienware I buy would be on sale.

I recently purchased a pre-built Alienware Aurora 15 (4090 graphics card) through Dell (online). After receiving it, I had nothing but issues with the audio. There would be a “crackling” sound every now and then, while playing games or watching videos. After at least 20 hours of trouble shooting with their tech support, I returned it for another one. 2 weeks later, I received the new one, with guess what…SAME ISSUE. I returned that one and got my $$$ back. I was done and exhausted with Dell. I am guessing there is some hardware issue related to Dell using a cheap mother board, or something. A friend of mine recommended I build my own through Micro Center (computer store in Ohio and other states). I spent the same money ($5,000) and got a much better gaming PC (Ryzen 9 7950x…4090 GPU…64GB D5 RAM @ 6000 mhz…4 TB HD)…This new PC has had zero issues and is truly a dream PC….Use extreme caution buying this Alienware A15, would NOT recommend…..

It's worth noting that Corsair temporarily drops prices by a couple hundred dollars, seemingly at random.

Didn't really have space in my budget for _any_ new computer, but couldn't pass up the deal. Right now, the 4090 version of the i7400 is showing up on their site as $3699 (at least in the US).

Most important thing to remember is you should never pay asking price. I called DELL and said hey im a loyal customer what is the best price i can get this pc for? Long story short it was (USD): $4,391.21 for the following: 13900KF Windows 11 home 4090 64GB 5200 mhz ram 2tb NVMe M.2 Cryotech cooling Dark Side of the Moon 1350w PSU 1 year warranty No keyboards, mice, or software. DO NOT PAY THE ASKING PRICE!! Basically, talked about the Corsair PC and how much more you could get for that then DELL. The only game they tried was to not match the 64 gigs of slower 5200 mhz ram (On the Vengence). But when i said well thanks im gonna go with Corsair they called me back in less than a minute and matched it. Its still more money but its $800+ cheaper with a 5 minute phone call. Also I put it on the DELL credit card so even though I can pay it instantly this will give me another $130 in free stuff from the Dell Store so i may get a super nice headset or keyboard etc. I am not saying this is the best pc on the market. But i watched the previous preview video and noticed the "noise" seemed to be lower on this one then the others. To me that is important.

Alienware is having a Summer Sale currently. The cheapest R13 is a really good deal, and is being sold under build it yourself price. That R13 in particular is the best deal on the market currently over anyone else or anywhere else. Alienware Aurora R13 Gaming Desktop $1,199.99 Processor 12ᵗʰ Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700F OS Windows 11 Home Graphics AMD Radeon™ RX 6700 XT Memory 16 GB DDR5 Storage 512 GB SSD There isnt anything much better than this right now for the value. I've checked everywhere, and this deal is a steal. With this you get the quality and luxury of Alienware along with Alienware / Dell software, warranty, and support. You also get the ability to upgrade significantly to anything else you want yourself. Because the motherboard and 750Watt power supply are capable of the current higher end cards. Yet, if you wanted to get those cards from Alienware even with the Summer Sale you will still be paying a premium. So don't get anything else from Dell / Alienware right now. You can buy the upgrades from Amazon or Newegg and put them in yourself if that is the route you are wanting to go. Although, understand this current R13 is still a really good gaming computer in of its self. Only thing you might want to do additionally is add additional harddrive space, and more Ram. But be sure to purchase those from Amazon because Alienware will charge you a large premium if you add those upgrades on the website. Remember that. Regardless this R13 alone is a steal, and you cannot build this same computer yourself for less. Dell/Alienware is really helping folks out with this computer. The RX 6700 XT with the 12th Gen Intel CPU is plenty to play really any PC game people play these days. If you want more power later on. Just upgrade yourself because you can, and do the purchases from Amazon or Newegg. You will save a ton of money. As I said dont add the upgrades on the Dell website because it is designed to charge expensive premiums, and you wont be getting the best deal then. Pay $1200 for a really nice and quality Alienware computer. Still Play your favorite games with the very nice 12th gen intel CPU and the really nice AMD 6700 XT. Its a win all around. Save yourself thousands of dollars and still do everything you want to do. If you do get bored just buy the new graphics card yourself and you would still be saving a ton of money, and you will have the 6700XT as a standby GPU.

Yet the 4090 runs well in the safe range around 70-74c from my experience with the same computer. Highly recommend upgrade cpu thermal paste. My r15 doesnt go over 70c while 4k gaming while running background apps. Also got 38,000+ during cinebench r23.

So what I seen was, the Corsair has more and better ram but still seems to fall a little under in performance. And then we talk about price on the Alienware without mentioning that NO ONE pays retail on Alienware. My R15 4090 like we have here, with upgraded to the faster DDR5 ram and 2TB of SSD space, and 2TB HDD space, no.rear cover (it's for a sim rig, ya won't see the PC anyway) with current discounts cost me 3300 taxes and shipping included. And I'll be interested in the thermals because your tests show it hotter than everyone else's tests who I've watched. The Corsair is probably great, but the customer support and way dell treats people for me, is worth the purchase most of the other builders I've talked to were basically useless. Either tried to get me to cheap out, or told me I'd be stupid not to buy the absolute most expensive thing they can build.

Hi Justin! How did you get such a high Cinebench R23 and Time Spy score? I got my R15 today and it is the exact same spec as yours 13900 KF and 4090 with 32Gb DDR5 4800Mhz ram. My Cinebench R23 score was 30,798 vs your 35,000 and time spy score of 29,430 (33,552 graphics and 17,352 CPU) vs your 30.013 (34,855 and 16,795). The only thing I did was updated drivers and bios via support assist and then updated the nvidia drivers via GeForce. Did you do anything else prior to your benchmarks?

Yeah sorry it took so long. I started on it actually before Christmas but then took some time off with the family on vacation, and then went to CES for almost a week, and then I decided to finish my testing on the Corsair Vengeance a7300 so I would have another next gen PC to compare the R15 to in the full review. Yeah I was pretty impressed with the 3D Mark Timespy score and gaming FPS was really good but it is pretty ridiculous how much Dell is charging for it. The price to fps ratio doesn't justify that price. Have you tried the Overclock 02 profile on yours? Everytime I changed it to that in the Alienware Command Center, it crashed my PC.
@dcoderjr Жыл бұрын
@JustinTechTips yeah I use the OC2 profile. It seems glitchy and says I can't apply the overclock but monitoring the performance even in AWCC it appears the overclock to my cpu and ram (5600c36) do get applied. I dont overclock my gpu at all though. Worried about starting a fire lol. With OC2 enabled I got GPU35808 CPU16083 and combined30244 for time spy. For cinebench23 I got 2121 single and 23170 multi. I only got the 13600kf though... I think it fits better with the thermals on a 240aio and it usually beats the 12900k in gaming benchmarks. The 13900k is waay better for multicore performance but has a very minor fps boost in games compared to the 13600k in my opinion

Alienware is like the rest, pricing and promos change frequently.

Agree on the points you made around the motherboard and case, but unless you are going to do it yourself, or want to pay ultra premium pricing, Alienware is a good route.

Thank you for your review of the Alienware Aurora R15. After watching your video, I have a question and/or a problem with this computer. I bought the computer with the following specifications: Alienware Aurora R15 AMD Ryzen(TM) 9 7950X (16 core, 80MB total cache, up to 5.7GHz max boost) NVIDIA(R) GeForce RTX(TM) 4070 12GB GDDR6X 32GB, 2x16GB, DDR5, 4800MHz Windows 11 Home I love the computer but there is a problem I have encountered, and I would like to hear your input. The problem I encountered is when the computer goes into “SLEEP MODE”. For some reason, my system DOES NOT stay off while it is in “sleep mode”. In the contrary, it keeps turning on/off continually. I also notice when the computer goes into “sleep mode” all the lights in the system go off except the video card. For some reason, it stays on (even during sleep mode). Is this normal? Have you encountered this problem before? Thank you for any information you can provide.

AVOID Despite all the negative reviews, I decided to buy an Alienware R15, because I'm not a hardcore gamer and just wanted something reliable and well built. Right out of the box on first boot I started having issues where it wouldn't connect to the internet which meant I couldn't setup Windows 11. I tried WAN/LAN/hotspotting nothing worked. Dell wanted me to download drivers, do this do that, I said I'm not doing anything to fix their crappy PC that doesn't even work out of the box and demanded a refund. So now I am back to square one with searching for a gaming pc.

This will be my 4th Alienware system. I've had nothing but luck with each one. Got a solid 5 years from each. I got a great deal on a Cyberpower PC from Costco that I purchased 7 years ago, so I skipped the Alienware last time. Those 3 systems ran hot, and they were loud, but they were far and away the fastest machines available. I'm excited to hear that this one will be quiet AND cool! Yes, forget about upgrading, but honestly, that's why I want a system with an RTX 4090 in it. I don't want to have to replace that for the normal life of a system. How are they going to make these graphic cards bigger anyway?? The thing already takes up half the case! I'll bet the next gen is smaller.

It leads in how many categories yet you can't recommend it because you can't change the PSU or motherboard? Who cares! You seem to have left out that it comes with a year warranty from Dell and you can always extend it. That is on-site service where they show up to replace what ever is diagnosed. What you also don't know is if that does not fix the problem Dell just builds you an entire new unit and sends it out. You send them that one back and call it done. What's Corsair's warranty? You say it's a unbiased review but you are biased as hell. You mention the Corsair system in near every slide. You saying you can't add a card is also wrong. You can't add a PCI-X card. But there is enough high speed ports you can just get one of those. Elgato makes several. Some are just destined to hate Dell, regardless of what they do. Just think there are 5x120mm fans that you don't have to touch now like you did in the R13/14 due to the noise. My R14 idles at 44db and gaming it hits 47db and you can hear that noise through a headset. Choice here should just be user preference. The Corsair is another ugly box and that founders card system looks hideous in it. Don't forget to mention the nightmare of Corsair iCue software (google it). That software constantly pounds your cpu, causing your cpu to boost to near max freq at idle. Personally I think the R15 looks better in Lunar Light then Dark Side of the Moon but that's why you have options because not everybody likes the same thing. Last but not least we'll talk about price, you configure your R15 the way you want it and then click the button at the top to talk to a representative online. You then paste them your configurator link so they can look at it. Myself I've gotten $500 knocked off of that exact configuration, and I know others who got over $700. I've gotten $300-$400 knocked off on mid-range systems.
@JustinTechTips Жыл бұрын
What I said was I can't recommend it for that price. Corsair's Warranty is 2 years go.corsair.com/oexPob . Even with $500 off the R15 is still overpriced for these specs compared to the competition. I don't hate Dell or am biased towards Corsair, I just think that after looking at the data and all things considered that Corsair is a better option for most people. The only reason I talk so much about Corsair in this video too is because it's the only other prebuilt with the latest gen CPU and GPU that I've been able to extensively test and compare the R15 to. Part of the reason the R15 tested better than that machine is due to the latest Intel CPUs being faster than the latest AMD. I'll have much more Intel versions coming in the next few weeks so I can personally compare apples to apples though. I know there are a lot of people who obsess over having the coolest temperatures for their gaming PCs and I do know first hand that the AMD version of the Corsair Vengeance was able to deliver great performance and exceptional thermals
@Overbuilt.Gaming Жыл бұрын
@@JustinTechTips I disagree. The R15 is a better system and you also forget to mention the PSU is a 1350w Platinum rated/server grade PSU whereas the Corsair is 1000w gold model. You mentioned a couple times about how much space gap there is between the psu and the gpu, yet the thermals are well in check in the low 70s. If you put a capture card or whatever in the Corsair below the GPU you're going to essentially be doing the exact same thing as what the PSU does in the R15. What did you have your fan profile on during your R15 testing? Quiet, balanced, or performance? On the R13/14/15 the gpu fans are controlled by the AWCC profile. Possibly earlier models to but no one cares about 12 and below b/c those are all junk. If you re-check Dell's website, you can now get a R15 in an AMD (CPU) version. Not sure if you saw that. Which warranty were you talking about for that Corsair system? Standard or Advanced? With Dell you get 1 type of warranty. Simple. You call them up and they diagnose it. If it's deemed to be hardware they send someone out to fix it the next business day or two in most cases. On the Corsair you have to open a warranty claim, okay that's fine. But unless you're an advanced PC User you aren't going to know what part is bad. Who is going to diagnose it? Who is going to replace the part? You get the idea. If you are tech savvy, know the ins and outs of PC DIY parts, then the Corsair system is right for you. If not the R15 is the best at the moment. Either way these systems are upwards of $4000+. You aren't going to be replacing them every year or two years at that. Your finance guy would have a heart attack if he learns you turn $4000 into $1500 every 18 months or so. Remember folks these are depreciating assets.

The system still plays everything I want at full specs on a 1440 display with no issues and has many additional hard drives. The $3400 mark might be worth an upgrade, but I don't know how many hard drives I can add. The Area-51 R2 has one 4GB mechanical drive and 4 SSDs with plenty of space. I do not look forward to transferring everything to a new machine, but I am tempted to purchase this system at $3000. Thoughts

I purchased the R15 and upgraded the Memory to the 5200 Mhz option for $50 and Windows 11 Pro for $95. Instead of upgrading to a 4TB drive for $550 through Dell, I left it as a 1TB SSD and 1TB Mechanical drive. I purchased the Crucial - P3 Plus 4TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 4.0 NVMe for $264 instead to use as my secondary drive using rebates I had, reducing the cost more. I also purchased two JEYI M.2 HeatSink, Heavy Duty Aluminum Convective Heat Sink, Passive Heat Sinks with Fins, (30℃ Drops Max) FinsCold Seris Godfins001 to go on each SSD to help reduce heat some. I had wanted to get new gaming monitors, and the 4090 and much faster CPU were needed to run a newer gaming monitor. I will be trying out the 49" Samsung Odyssey Neo G9NA, crossing my fingers there is no issue, or two 32" Odyssey Neo G7 4K monitors. I have been really happy with my existing Alienware Area-51 R2 system and will set it up as my son's machine. I have tried several of the newly designed Alienware R series over the years and returned them all for excessive heat, but I think this R15, with more fans and an open design to allow airflow, will work. If not, it will go back. Thanks again for your review. It was constructive for my purchase decision. Yikes, I just watched your Corsair Vengeance review and questioning my decision. Agreed, Dell has wasted too much space, and even though the design is cooler there is NO room for expansion, unlike the really cool and expansive Cosair system.

It’s so amazing the internet of today, manufacturers know they can’t give us crap with no repercussions. They know they can’t mess around with how blazingly fast word gets around if they sell us garbage. No more guessing what you want

im trying to find a work/gaming computer, mostly minecraft, maybe a bit of minecraft dungeons and some fps games, would there be any laptops that you would recommend for that? Also, love the videos, unfortunately I can't afford a lot so I can't buy the tech, but it provides a very good background video for work.

I was interested in an R15 or Corsair for 1080p gaming at 400FPS . MW2 like games, which one would be better?

do you consider DELL has regular 10% on these PC which makes them very competitive on price (by just subscribe to their mailing list, so basically for everyone)?
@cloud226gmail Жыл бұрын
then on Black Friday, another 12% rebate from Rakuten, making it the most competitive prebuild PC imo

I just saw your video. I have the Alienware Aurora R15 in my cart. My son really wants a pc for Xmas. He’s 10. We have no idea what we are doing. Air cooling or liquid cooling? If we get liquid cooling we have no idea how we would add the cooling to it. Can you please help?
@JustinTechTips8 ай бұрын
hey @aprilvaldes7503 I would go liquid cooling. Don't worry there is no maintenance on these setups. No adding of coolant necessary at any point. Definitely get this one from Best Buy if you get it bestbuy.7tiv.net/R5DVo2 They seem to be priced higher on Dell's website today for some reason. If you do end up getting a gaming PC today (even if it's a different one) please remember to use my links, as purchases made through them give me a small commission at no cost to you and it helps the channel grow and get better!

@JustinTechTips Жыл бұрын
100% I would go with the i7400. Even more so now after I made this video I see they dropped the price even more on that one go.corsair.com/kjYn2z Not sure how temporary that special pricing is though.

Based on my experience with dell's customer service who can't seem to be bothered to send me my dell rewards code (sending me from one spokesperson to another), and based on the other opinions I can read on trustpilot, I'd say don't buy anything by dell. And my 2 months old R15 is now making an annoying repetitive fan noise since a few days, and I'm not the only one (could be the PSU). Yeah I'm not happy.

Everyone I talk to is happy with their Alienware and stand behind it as a quality product. I recently got their m18 laptop with rtx4090 19 13980HX and 64gb ram...it unfortunately had problems. Customer support will refund me and I am going to get this R15 desktop instead!! Hope your customer service gets better dude

@@DavyDave1313 Ok good to know, I hope it'll be smooth for the fan issue. I was not happy regarding a dell rewards code I didn't got, though I gotta say it was partially my fault cuz' I had missed some of the terms & conditions and it seems the reduction is not applyable, but none of the 3 or 4 customer service employees I talked to seemed to be aware of the terms and conditions either.

Alienware sale ends on the 20th, just got this beast for 2,200 (450$ off). I know the GPU isn't nuts but I turn all my settings down for more FPS anyway and 12gb of VRam is all you need, just wish it had the 5800 mhz memory because thats what it can support. 13th Gen Intel@ Core i9 13900KF NVIDIAR GeForce RTX 3060 32 GB, 2 x 16 GB, DDR5, 4800 MHz, XMP (Overclockable up to 5200Mhz) 1 TB, M.2, PCle NVMe, SSD

Honestly, do not buy alienware products. I bought alienware aurora R12 a while ago, the high end version. Nothing short of disappointment. Runs very hot, it's loud and the amount of crashes I had is just insane. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Have you tested the R15 version with the 7950X? The sad thing with the thermals is so much heat trapped near the top, so the radiator doesn't seem to have a real outflow path

I think they made a mistake with your user manual - my Aurora R15 came with the correct manual, which does mention the WiFi antennas too.

It's also important to note that those antennas cover Bluetooth too. If you're using a Bluetooth controller or similar, you WILL want to plug them in
