   A new friend
   Weird headline but I’ll explain (first the needed (out of 10) – SPECS 09 (no real complaints, runs everything silky smooth but there are more powered ones within same pricing ranges like the Aurora with 3090 or HP Omen also on Amazon), BUILD 10 (most impressively durable and air venty, no heating issues), VALUE 10/10 (could have been way more expensive if had bought from some crummy/greedy local retailer since Alienware is rare in Fiji). Mine has the 3080, 16GB RAM, 512SSD and 1TB HDD, i7 and it is a reliable friend. To explain, when gaming, we build many connections and friends because experiences are real when shared and at times we have a buddy with us (like a spotter to a sniper). The Aurora 11 is my spotter and firend. It is precise, helpful and reliable (so far, even people change). In gaming (coupled with a gsync enabled monitor, logitech g512 clicky keyboard, and logitech mouse I actually feel like the Doom Slayer, Prophet, Master Chief etc when playing related titles because there are no glitches and everything is smooth where all you do is move forward (ie. progress). While this machine won’t change your life, it will be a good friend and you will be able to rely on its performance. If you are looking for a legendary machine which is relatively reasonably priced, the Aurora 11 can be your friend too (hope doesn’t sound creepy). Thanks.

   Amazing as advertised – with a catch
   I was looking to get a aurora R11 on their web site but decided to do some comparison shipping. By chance looked in Amazon and noticed that Alienware had a amazon store space. I compared the price and it was an almost 1200.00 difference. it was after the holidays so i had missed out on the big discounts from Dell. I was skeptical it is an actual authorized Alienware dealer. *** their are great prices on their amazon store that differ from their web site. HEY are very Time Limited as soon as i placed my order i check the next day and it had gone up to $4120.00 so compare the price before you buy. *** only disadvantage is if you buy thru amazon if you want to get the dell extended warranties they ask ridiculous price increase $289. for 1 year standard as just $89. online.

   Works great! However, reliability is an issue
   I’ve been using Alienware Desktops (R10, R11 and R12) for years now and they seem to have a high failure rate.This one did too.Luckily, so far, Dell has been good with fixing or replacing parts. I did have some trouble with their home visit once; it took 2x failed visits and having to send it back to get it working again. I think the Motherboard was bad that time.Overall, decent gaming PC but I would not really recommend Alienware as gaming PCs. They have an unusually high failure rate and the warranty won’t last long.I had three Alienware PCs right now, and so far, I’ve had two bad video cards (the fan fails and it causes the video cards to crash) and two mother board failures.The only good thing about these Alienware PCs is that the video cards are a good value.

   Scalpers are the worst
   Originally got this from the Dell site, but after some research, saw that they wouldn’t be shipping for at least a few months. Cancelled the order with Dell and bought this one, have it less than a week later and it runs great. Also, with the scalpers/chip shortage causing 3080’s to be non-existent right now, this was the cheapest way to get a 3080 without supporting scalpers.

   not water cooled
   The ad says water cooled. It isn’t.
