Why you should buy the Alienware Aurora R16

Building your own PC is one of the most satisfying experiences for a diehard gamer, but it can also be a pretty tedious process. That’s why high-quality pre-builds exist, and the Aurora R16 is one of the best options. In our best gaming desktop PCs roundup, we gave the R16 top honors for several reasons, with power and performance being two of its leading accolades.

Under the hood, this configuration comes with an Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU that delivers max clock speeds of 6.0GHz. Graphics are handled by a loaded NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 GPU with 24GB of dedicated memory. The PC itself contains 64GB of RAM and up to 2TB of internal storage. After you factor in the liquid-cooled CPU, you’ve got yourself one of the strongest gaming PCs that’s ever graced shelves.

On top of numerous ports, excellent customization software (Alienware Command Center), and one of the best chassis designs we’ve ever seen, the Aurora R16 runs as quiet as a church mouse, too! We see a lot of Alienware deals on a weekly basis, but this is the kind of offer you don’t want to pass up. After all, you could save yourself $900 on a flagship gaming PC!

Purchase the Alienware Aurora R16 through Dell for $3,100 while this markdown lasts. Want to take your PC gaming on the go? Have a look at some of the best gaming laptop deals we’ve been archiving!

Alienware is one of the top brands for gaming PCs, but we understand if you’d rather look at a PlayStation or Xbox instead. And to that end, we have a solid list of gaming console deals for you to check out, too!

What is Copilot? Everything you need to know about Microsoft’s AI assistant
There’s a Copilot for almost everything now. Here’s which one you need
Microsoft Copilot Banner Featured

Microsoft has attached the Copilot name to so many products that a simple question like "What is Copilot?" now needs a little more context. There is the main Microsoft Copilot chatbot, Copilot inside Microsoft 365, GitHub Copilot for developers, Gaming Copilot for Xbox users, and a separate category of Windows laptops called Copilot+ PCs.

For most people, Microsoft Copilot means the company’s general-purpose AI assistant. So you'd expect it to answer questions, search the web, generate and edit images, and the rest of the usual AI chatbot features. You can access it through a browser or dedicated apps for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. It is also integrated into Microsoft Edge, the Xbox mobile app, and Game Bar on Windows 11.

I tried to parody the most absurd AI products, but the tech industry beat me to it
The joke was supposed to be that every household object gets cameras, AI insights, and a premium tier. Apparently, that’s now a business plan
Imaginary AI products

I wanted to invent an AI product so silly that no founder could turn it into a seed round.

It had to solve a problem nobody had, collect far more data than the problem deserved, and turn normal behavior into an insight that sounded vaguely disappointed in its owner. Somewhere around the third feature, it would ask for a subscription.

I spent a fortune on a Copilot+ PC, and I’ve barely ever touched Microsoft’s AI
Microsoft needs to give Copilot+ PC owners a reason to use Copilot
Copilot

There is a dedicated Copilot key on my ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED. Months after buying the laptop, it may be one of the least important keys on the entire keyboard. My Zenbook UM3406 runs on AMD’s Ryzen AI 300 series processor, complete with a dedicated NPU offering up to 50 TOPS of AI performance. That qualifies it as a Copilot+ PC, which makes it a part of what Microsoft once described as the new era for Windows.

AI is already a regular part of my workday. I use it for research, brainstorming, and working through ideas. But rather than relying on something built into the Windows OS, I've relied on the likes of ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini.
