The Alienware RTX 5090 Gaming PC Drops to $4,780, Nearly the Same Price as Buying the GPU By Itself
An RTX 5090 graphics card nowadays goes for at least $4,500 new and $4,000 used.
Dell has slashed the price of its flagship gaming PC, the Alienware Area-51 equipped with the GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, to just $4,779.99 after a $1,550 instant discount. This deal is priced nearly the same as purchasing the RTX 5090 GPU alone, currently retailing for around the same figure. The Alienware Area-51 is Dell's top-of-the-line gaming PC, boasting a formidable build, top-notch cooling system, and impressive hardware specifications.
Powered by an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K CPU, the RTX 5090 32GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-7200MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD, this configuration is an excellent choice for gamers seeking the ultimate performance. The RAM and SSD upgrades are priced at over $750, making the prebuilt PC a more affordable option. Despite the high cost of individual components, Amazon and Newegg listings indicate that 32GB of DDR5-7200MHz RAM often sells for over $600, while the RTX 5090 GPU alone costs more than $4,500. The GPU's premium pricing is expected to persist due to the limited supply in the market.
