Features & Design
Operating System
Available with Windows 10 Home: Break down boundaries and immerse yourself in the game with graphics more realistic than ever before thanks to the multi-thread scaling capabilities of the new API DirectX 12.
A NEW FIRST IN POWER
For the first time in Alienware's desktop history we are proud to introduce a new optional liquid cooled graphics solution based on a PCIe-mounted heat exchanger and smart fan blower design. It’s engineered for lower temperatures and more reliable graphics overclocking to produce higher performing graphics.
RAISING THE BAR ONCE AGAIN
Overclocking guaranteed: The Alienware Aurora was designed to fully support custom upgrades. The processor lays on a motherboard using the Intel Z490 Chipset with a bus speed of 8 GT/s and support for overclocking, Intel® Rapid Storage Technology and Intel® Platform Trust Technology.
High-speed memory: With more and faster memory come greater multitasking capabilities. Your system can double as a gaming content editing system or you can stream and record while chatting and looking up guides while you track your quest. With massive amounts of high performance XMP DDR4 memory there’s no limit to what all you can do at one time.
1000W power supply: With more power comes more possibilities. With an impressive 1000W power supply – another first for Aurora - you can upgrade to higher-wattage components, like higher-end graphics card setups as well as cleaner, more efficient, energy.

INNOVATIVE GRAPHICS POWER, AIRFLOW, AND COOLING
The Alienware Aurora now offers optional custom graphics designs based on NVIDIA’s 2nd Gen RTX architecture. These custom designs are made with extensive thermals and an innovative airflow pattern engineered to prioritize graphics performance while complementing the Aurora chassis airflow as well.
Extensive cooling: Our new thermal design includes quad 10mm copper heat pipes with integrated vapor chambers – our largest diameter heat pipe design to date – designed for exceptional gaming performance.
Innovative airflow: Another added boost for graphics performance is made possible by a dual-axial fan design with positive rear pressure relief – a new Alienware first for graphics cards. The positive rear pressure relief allows heat to escape from specially located vents designed to aid with flow and thermal management. This new approach is built with gamers in mind.
Engineered for efficiency: These custom graphics card designs, included in both NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 and 3090 graphics, are built with space efficiency with a max length of just 267mm that covers a 2.5x slots and offers a dual 6-pin/8-pin PCI-Express power connectors. All of these choices have been made to create efficiency with uncompromised gaming performance.
GRAPHICS CARD TECHNOLOGIES: AMD RADEON™ IMAGE SHARPENING
Detailed, Beautiful Visuals with Radeon™ Image Sharpening: Experience superior image quality with low performance impact. AMD Radeon™ Image Sharpening uses an intelligent contrast-adaptive sharpening algorithm that produces visuals that look crisp and detailed. Contrast-Adaptive Sharpening combined with optional GPU Upscaling draws out details in your favorite titles.
AMD Radeon™ Image Sharpening: AMD Radeon™ Image Sharpening (RIS) is a contrast-adaptive sharpening algorithm designed to intelligently enhance details to deliver crisp-looking visuals with minimal performance impact.
AMD Radeon™ Anti-Lag: The new Radeon Anti-Lag feature in Radeon Software is designed to help reduce input lag in GPU-limited cases. Radeon Anti-Lag controls the pace of the CPU work to make sure it doesn't get too far ahead of the GPU, reducing the amount of CPU work queued up. As a result, Radeon Anti-Lag can shrink input lag by almost a full frame, restoring the responsiveness to your game.
AMD Radeon™ FreeSync™ Technology: AMD Radeon FreeSync technology in the AMD Radeon™ RX graphics on the Alienware Aurora resolves the communication issues between processor and monitor, eliminating image tears and choppiness for effortlessly smooth gameplay.

ENGINEERED FOR AN UNENDING ADVANTAGE
A new era of engineering: The updated chassis design based on the Legend industrial design, ensures airflow moves more fluidly and efficiently to decreases temperatures at the voltage regulator heatsinks by up to 8%, compared to the previous model. Lower temperatures and more efficient airflow increase performance while maintaining stability for higher overclocking which results in higher frames per second while gaming.
Gaming made timeless: The new Alienware Aurora is thoughtfully engineered with an innovative PSU swing-arm, which enables a variety of benefits like tool-less graphics and expansion bays and a compact chassis size. It also allows graphics cards to be perfectly positioned for purposeful airflow. We ensured the swing-arm carries the power supply which allows for airflow through the side vent, while securing and reducing vibrations during shipping to the cards themselves.
Added safety: To ensure safety and to avoid any damage or injury we created the stop-anywhere function on the PSU swing-arm. This prevents the swing-arm from falling or swinging while in use. Additionally, we included a locking mechanism that secures the swing-arm while open and being worked on.
