In 2025, Presidents' Day falls on Monday, February 17, and marks one of Dell's most significant sales events of the year. This sale often rivals the discounts seen during Back to School and Black Friday, making it an ideal time to purchase a Dell gaming PC or laptop in the first half of the year. However, this year, Alienware's deals have been somewhat slow to start. While there aren't many standout offers at the moment, expect more enticing deals to emerge over the weekend and on Presidents' Day itself.

Dell has just launched its new Alienware Area-51 lineup of gaming PCs. Available in only two configurations, both feature an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K and GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, starting at $4,449.99. These systems are available for pre-order but won't ship until the end of March.
The new Alienware Area-51 chassis was unveiled at CES 2025. It features minor aesthetic and cooling redesigns compared to the 2024 R16 model, with updated components. The I/O panel is now at the top of the case, and the tempered glass window spans the entire side panel. Air intakes are located at the bottom and front, promoting a positive airflow design for a less dusty interior. The internal components have been refreshed with a new motherboard, faster RAM, and a more powerful power supply to support the latest CPUs and RTX 50 series GPUs.

$3,699.99 at Alienware
The Alienware Aurora R16 with an RTX 4090 is currently available at $3,699.99 without any discounts. The RTX 4090, the most powerful GPU in the RTX 40 series, is renowned for its performance. Chris Coke's review highlights its ability to outperform competitors, stating, "The RTX 4090 may be huge and expensive, but holy smokes if it doesn’t blow the competition out of the water... Until the rest of the pack can catch up, between its impressive hardware specs and its DLSS 3 AI wizardry, even the $1,599 price doesn’t seem unreasonable for the unrivaled frame rates that this card can crank out." It's also excellent for AI applications due to its 24GB of VRAM.
