Grab an entire RTX 5090 PC for just $380 more than the standalone graphics card — save $1,550 off Alienware's Area-51 gaming rig

Dell offers a gaming PC called Alienware Area-51 for $4,779.99 that includes an RTX 5090 graphics card. This is $380 more expensive than buying the standalone RTX 5090, but the deal saves buyers $1,550 compared to purchasing the graphics card alone. The Alienware Area-51 comes with a 20-core Intel Core Ultra 7 265K processor, 32GB of high-speed DDR5 memory, and a 1TB SSD for operating system and game storage.

The system is housed in a Dell-designed case with a transparent tempered glass panel, allowing enthusiasts to admire the internals. A 240mm liquid cooler keeps the Intel processor cool, and a 1,500W power supply provides ample power for the powerful Nvidia GPU. The Alienware Area-51 offers top-tier performance, capable of running games at high resolutions and frame rates, even with ray tracing enabled.

With the current high price of the RTX 5090, this deal represents one of the best values for an RTX 5090-powered prebuilt gaming PC on the market today.
