Great video! My R16 should be arriving next week and I’m looking forward to giving it a whirl. I prefer the overall aesthetic of the prior generation Aurora cases and wish AW had kept the same internal case RGB configuration, but I acknowledge that the new R16 case is arguably strictly better in terms of acoustics, airflow, and functionality.

@@Cryotydeyeah Alienware PCs are definitely more beneficial for people who start low with plans to upgrade to current Gen top tier GPUs and CPUs later. People who get the maxed out versions have nothing more to upgrade once next Gen CPUs or GPUs require a MOBO swap. Which as we all know, is not possible with Alienware Auroras unfortunately :/
How's your rig going so far? I was talking to best buy today and geek squad said they had a few come back for GPU not communicating or something. Been looking into getting one but been hesitant.
I got this pc with the 4070ti. Added more ram and another ssd. Im kinda just dipping my toes into the pc gamer space. Been a console gamer since I was 5. Thoroughly enjoying this PC.
Im contemplating on buying a refurbished model (excellent condition) for 2200 CAD, that has the 4070ti, i9 13900f, 32gb ram 5600mhz and 1tb ssd with 1000 psu. Comparing it to dells website Ill save about 800 bucks.
I’m finally making switch myself from console. Wired my choice down between 3 pc. This being one of them. I’m pretty excited as I am a competitive gamer. Glad you’re enjoying it brother.
@DaGoldSheep my tests are showing an improvement over the R15 due to the much better top exhaust fan. I’ll show how it compares to all the others though in my full review
I was thinking of getting this in the 4090 version since I want to game in 4k. Is that a good choice? I do not want a large tower. But does it make sense to still get the m18 for portable gaming since that same the best performance?
I wouldnt game in 4k right now unless youre okay with 60 max. Not to mention you prolly wont be doing ray tracing. I'd do 1440, even the 4090 is kinda mid max settings 1440p.
There is one on sale on best buy for $1250. 13th gen, Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060Ti - 1TB SSD - Basalt Black. Is it worth it or can I save over $200+ building a custom one
I have been waiting for a while from a review from this guy. Love the down to earth review. This is exactly what I was looking for in terms of minor testing. Thanks so much Just!N Tech.
Hi Justin. Hoping you can provide some advice. I just unboxed my own Aurora R16. However, it appeared to be DOA. The fans light up, but it the logo flashes indicating a CPU error. (Amber Amber White). Is there something that I may have missed while setting it up? Could there be packing brackets around the CPU that I failed to remove?
I get that they are trying to listen to people, but the appeal for me is the unique wild Alienware designs, now it looks like everything else. I just got the best deal I have seen for a flagship build, and it's the Alienware R15 purchased at Dell. Cost with tax/shipping included was $3002. Specs below.

Very nice - that’s a solid loadout. And I hear you about the design, I definitely prefer the more alien looking R15 design over the R16’s overly-minimalistic aesthetic. It looks generic, and while it matches the design scheme of their laptops I don’t necessarily think that’s what people want in their desktops. Understated laptops are great but when it comes to desktops (especially for gamers) I think most folks want something unique and flavorful.
damn im gonna go check that out..while looking at the intro to this video i think i def decided i liked the last generation more as well! sounds like a perfect loadout you got and the price is pretty average/on par especially if your happy with the look of the machine, i dont know if you could do better pricewise with the other good brands and have something stacked with rgb and or decent cooling w/ the best graphics card.
ive seen a comment or two about people saying they had problems with that highest tech spec and returned it twice and "didnt work"...dont know if it was hate. but supposedly the airflow in last years model is also supposedly really horrible.
I just bought an Aurora R16 with an i9 13900K, 4070 ti, 32 gb of ram, with a 1000W power supply. Any recommendations of what I should customize or do on it?
I waiting on my higher tier r16 to come into the mail as well. Actually Looking to sell it. Lower than retail too. Will post a video once it’s delivered.
I am looking to purchase a PC like this. Is this dell aurora worth my money 💰? How good it is to handle anything I throw to it? I like the RGB RAMS. But dell still using those [old school rams-green]
half these people are lying or they dont know how to setup a pc its not out of box play friendly make sure you do ur research and this pc can handle 4k at 250 fps hdr on
@@danielainger 1year later and it still gets 250 fps at 4k “ with dlss” so if you have a 4k tv or a 4k monitor this will be able to run any game you like on it cyberpunk 2077 can get over 175+ with ray tracing and everything else on ultra without path tracing on and having ray reconstruction on. I have multiple pcs customs and prebuilt as far as prebuilts go this one was and is my favorite and had the best cooling because of the open holed panel. What people don’t tell you about the nvidia cards is that their up scaling is amazing while the downscaling lacks a bit. So say I’m using dlss on 4k display it will render the game at 1440 if I put it on quality. But 1440 native is worse than 4k downscaled there’s a reason things get compressed in order to make things run smoother and if you take 1440 and downscale the image it will looks worse than 4k with dlss on so in my opinion 1440 monitors are slowly rising while falling because of that. 4k monitors can be better for the person who actually understands how these ai scalers work now if you want a rig that can perform the best and have the most options Alienware is never the go to. But if you want an out of box console experience it’s great. Either way you won’t be sad for having one.
Hi Justin, just curious about how much it would cost if there were maximum features eg i9 etc and whether in your opinion it would be worth saving for the max, please?
I just recently bought a pre build pc from corsair it’s a newer one but my monitor keeps turning black and my pc fans kick up to 100 the only way to stop is is by holding the power button on the pc and resetting it, it does it about 4 times a day it’s scary bc i just got it spend a lot and i don’t know what to do i emailed and left a voicemail to them and nobody’s contacted me back someone please help me out!!!!
Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the r15 you reviewed the 4090 13900 one? If so I’m not surprised the r15 ran hotter. This one would probably be hotter since it’s got one less fan I would think no?
Thank you for your honest review ,:) Looking forward to your testing review on this for sure. I wonder how hard it would be to add in another fan to the front though, is there a spot to screw in another one? Thanks again!
I've had some issues with the Alienware Command Center software on my laptop along with wifi dropping after being left on for a few hours. Gaming-wise it is great, but I think I'm going with Corsair this time around for a desktop.
@briantucker819 yeah Corsair is my favorite prebuilt brand as of right now. Between i8100 and i7400, I definitely liked the design of the i8100 better but for the money and power the i7400 was a better value
Thank you very much for the unboxing video. Your videos helped ne decide to get the R16. The right cover, where "aurora" is embossed does not have a plastic film. I have seen other unboxing videos where it had a plastic film. Mine does not look used. Is this a cuase for concern?
Im trying to get into the pc community from ps5. I Do you think this a good entry pc? I looked at the Corsair I7400. I just wanted to see which one is the better buy. The R16 or the Corsair

I was thinking to buy this (i9-4070), but dell doesnot ship internationally. So, it would be helpful if you or anyone can provide me box dimensions and overall weight of box Will really appreciate
whoever complained about the design is annoying ash that scifi design went hard and I was waiting for spec upgrades and the community just had to ruin a perfect product yet again
Hello! I was wondering if you knew how many FPS the aurora alienware r16 Core i7 14700F GeForce RXT 3050 would reach in Fortnite. Thanks for your support man, appreciate it.
@fran0708 Short answer yes. :) Longer answer, depends on your budget and what you plan to do with it. It's got a great price to performance ratio but if you don't need something powerful and play basic games don't waste your money getting the top spec version of this PC.
is the mother board and PSU still proprietary? that's my biggest issue with Alienware. I hate to admit that I love the aesthetics of their cases but hate the airflow challenges and inability for easy upgrades...especially with the power supply.
Of course they are proprietary, thats never going to change until people stop by these and Dell wakes up, look at HP Omen, the motherboard is but its pretty good but most of the other parts are Coolermaster, when asked on a live stream coolermaster reps basically admitted they make the the 45L case for HP.
Love the vids man. I'm upgrading from a ps5 and looking to get a gaming pc that can run warzone and the call of duty series at around 200 fps or more and keep it around $1000-$1500 and just wondering what you would recommend. Appreciate any help!!
JUSTIN I AM NOT AN OLD SUBS.. OF YOURS BUT I HAVE A QUESTION WHY YOUR SO MANY VIDEOS ARE OF ALIENWARE ?? BUT BUT I AM IN LOVE WITH YOUR REVIEWS BECAUSE YOU COVER EVERY SINGLE DETAILS OF ANY DEVICE♥♥♥♥
@anupamnigam8575 Thanks for the kind words! A lot of PC Gamers think I do a lot of Alienware videos because I'm a fan Alienware but really I do a lot of Alienware videos because it appears a lot of PC Gamers are fans of Alienware as the videos I do about Alienware always get the most views.
So, I can buy an Alienware R16 with i7 and 4070TI for $1650 with tax, I can get the Lenovo exact same spec for about $120 more. What should I do. Thank you, love the channel.
Great review! I'm looking at getting this pc but with the i9 13900f and a 4070ti could play games like forza and stream at the same time? Thanks for your time
If you don't think you will ever desire replacing your motherboard when PC components get faster and you're not one to upgrade as you go then yes this is a great deal for the performance you get. Do you think you will just replace your entire PC after several years or just upgrade parts?
Theoretically yes, this rig is arguably the most noteworthy effort AW has put forth in the desktop arena in a while. The R15 was a massive improvement over prior gen Auroras but it was still in the same angled case that many folks disdained.
@Ultraman65 better airflow and thermals but current configurations of the R16 do not have the most powerful CPUs and GPUs available. So current R15 options are faster
Can I have one of your pcs I got nothing I’m trying to get one but everyone rejects. And it’s ok if you can’t but fr you are my favourite RUclipsr so far because you add so much detail.
that the SSDs have no cover is sad. in the video 2:42 they have black cases. in the pc not. same for me and that looks very uggly. same with cmos and whats below the cmos. come on Alienware you can do better and after testing the LED. who ever coded the software and some of the LED options. wtf thats bad.
Alienware improved their PCs maybe 1.5 percent across the board, charged you more for it, still severely undervolted all components making them 1 tier lower in performance and smiled while doing it.
I cannot explain HOW it happened, but I received this very configuration for $1503.99 in August. Did they goof? It's currently $1999 for my config. I'm definitely enjoying it though.
I believe they should make two to three chassis to choose from. A ultra high tower, High tower, mid tower for which they made and looks good. But I would like to see this design in a high to ultra high tower tower configuration with the same look for the mid just bigger.

Based on the feedback of other YT reviewers this rig is very quiet.
Hello! I was wondering if you knew how many FPS the aurora alienware r16 Core i7 14700F GeForce RXT 3050 would reach in Fortnite. Thanks for your support man, appreciate it.
Great, in depth review. Liked, subscribed.
would this be good as a first pc? i'm not great at processing research so i think a straight answer would be better for me haha
@fran0708 Short answer yes. :) Longer answer, depends on your budget and what you plan to do with it. It's got a great price to performance ratio but if you don't need something powerful and play basic games don't waste your money getting the top spec version of this PC.
Will this pc be able to stream and game at the same time? i am a content creator
Trying to buy soon a quick response will be great!
is the mother board and PSU still proprietary? that's my biggest issue with Alienware. I hate to admit that I love the aesthetics of their cases but hate the airflow challenges and inability for easy upgrades...especially with the power supply.
Of course they are proprietary, thats never going to change until people stop by these and Dell wakes up, look at HP Omen, the motherboard is but its pretty good but most of the other parts are Coolermaster, when asked on a live stream coolermaster reps basically admitted they make the the 45L case for HP.
@mr.papagorgio4683 yeah that's my biggest issue as well.
I love that design 🔥🔥 been thinking about grabbing one of theses some time,is the liquid cooling a good thing?
Love the vids man. I'm upgrading from a ps5 and looking to get a gaming pc that can run warzone and the call of duty series at around 200 fps or more and keep it around $1000-$1500 and just wondering what you would recommend. Appreciate any help!!
Great video as always! Will you recommend Alienware Aurora R15 over R16?
I ordered one I can’t wait for it to arrive :)
How has it been?
JUSTIN I AM NOT AN OLD SUBS.. OF YOURS BUT I HAVE A QUESTION WHY YOUR SO MANY VIDEOS ARE OF ALIENWARE ?? BUT BUT I AM IN LOVE WITH YOUR REVIEWS BECAUSE YOU COVER EVERY SINGLE DETAILS OF ANY DEVICE♥♥♥♥
@anupamnigam8575 Thanks for the kind words! A lot of PC Gamers think I do a lot of Alienware videos because I'm a fan Alienware but really I do a lot of Alienware videos because it appears a lot of PC Gamers are fans of Alienware as the videos I do about Alienware always get the most views.
@@JustinTechTips haha 😅😅 clever justin ✌️✌️ keep doing this sir
u advice this pc or better build your own pc ?
How many hd slots are there?
So, I can buy an Alienware R16 with i7 and 4070TI for $1650 with tax, I can get the Lenovo exact same spec for about $120 more. What should I do. Thank you, love the channel.
Alrighty then!
Still killing it bud!
@saitamassj2475 Thanks man!

Great review! I'm looking at getting this pc but with the i9 13900f and a 4070ti could play games like forza and stream at the same time? Thanks for your time
Stream it to twitch*
hi total noob here. are display ports better than HDMI for gaming?
Can you test the cooler ?
Just bought it but why does it take so long to ship (3 week)
mine said same but came in one week
Is this overkill if I just want to run Autodesk products such as AutoCad and Revit ?
Yes but it depends heavily on your project complexity. But for an average user, this is way overkill.
Both program you mentioned seems to be cpu heavy rather than gpu heavy so this specific config isn't very budget effective.
I love this pc. I have the I9 14900kf and rtx 4090 it was $3,600. I might do a review on it. It's damn impressive.
love your reviews bro . any brand , any logo you reviewed got me glued to screen . oh yeah , i also shared with my singapore friends ; )
So if im just now starting to get my first pc. Should i start with this one?
with the tempertures. How would i make it keep cool through my gaming ?
If you don't think you will ever desire replacing your motherboard when PC components get faster and you're not one to upgrade as you go then yes this is a great deal for the performance you get. Do you think you will just replace your entire PC after several years or just upgrade parts?
@@JustinTechTips well several years . Prolly replace.
Im so pumped for this. I got the base model for 1100 with black friday deals. I might get a bigger ssd at some point cause 1tb is a bit low for me
where u get that knife from
Is it VR compatible?
Great review
Hi mate Iam using the link but its going with dollor Iam in UK can get this in UK link
Am in kenya, how can I get this cpu
@deejaykenchd7481 unfortunately I don’t think they are shipping to Kenya
I’d buy this pc ngl. Even for work, this could be a good option
Hey when are you doing quest 3
Should I get it??
Does it mean that Alienware desktops are finally decent and not too scamy?
Theoretically yes, this rig is arguably the most noteworthy effort AW has put forth in the desktop arena in a while. The R15 was a massive improvement over prior gen Auroras but it was still in the same angled case that many folks disdained.
Sadly the answer is still no, it's still very overpriced, but I have to admit that there are still improvements compared to previous AW prebuilts.
Is it better then the R15?
@Ultraman65 better airflow and thermals but current configurations of the R16 do not have the most powerful CPUs and GPUs available. So current R15 options are faster
@@JustinTechTips Awesome thanks I’ll just shoot for the R15
you pulled the protective film off of it ... its lost half its value now
I plan on buying the 4070, don't feel like spending 3k so it's nice to see it'll be worth it
Good review!
I’m stuck with the r12 3070
How many frames in cod
Pleae do nzxt player three prime
thanks buying this right now. Good sale for 4070 ti super for 1,699.
Can I have one of your pcs I got nothing I’m trying to get one but everyone rejects. And it’s ok if you can’t but fr you are my favourite RUclipsr so far because you add so much detail.
I am still using an Alienware Aurora R5 that still works so I think I will be shopping for one of these soon.
i got alienware aurora r8 still good working but i need 14th gen new year for more power gaming i will order on alienware aurora r16 price £1,500 uk
Thanks for the review, I stumbled upon it and it's so cool to find a Christian tech/gamer nerd! Subscribed. God bless!
hi did alienware mention a higher CPU option in addition to rtx 4080 and 4090?
@stephanjan1354 do you mean K variants of the CPU? You can already select an i9 13900F CPU
Yes, those GPUs were just announced.
You'll be able to get up to a rtx 4080 and a i9-13900f.
correct, either the K variant or KF@@JustinTechTips
he is very honest .great
You could do your own custom build with a 4070ti for that price
@inf4moustwin15 yeah prebuilts aren't for those who know how to build their own and like to do it
that the SSDs have no cover is sad. in the video 2:42 they have black cases. in the pc not. same for me and that looks very uggly. same with cmos and whats below the cmos. come on Alienware you can do better
and after testing the LED. who ever coded the software and some of the LED options. wtf thats bad.
PLEASE DO NZXT PLAYER THREE PRIME!!
I got the 4060 myself, I like the look too
me too only paid 1100 on dell webside! It looks awsome plenty of power for my needs and same price as good low end gaming computers
got it for 550usd (800 ish cad) on marketplace same specs but 4060 instead of 4070
i just ordered mine it says it comes the 3rd im so exited first pc ever
@nasirebest7029 woa first ever?! Congrats! Which configuration did you get?
beautiful PC, But imo i like the aurora r15 better
Yeah some people prefer the R15 design. I just got tired of the same thing every year so it was like a breath of fresh air to see something new
Alienware improved their PCs maybe 1.5 percent across the board, charged you more for it, still severely undervolted all components making them 1 tier lower in performance and smiled while doing it.
I cannot explain HOW it happened, but I received this very configuration for $1503.99 in August. Did they goof? It's currently $1999 for my config.
I'm definitely enjoying it though.
I miss The old design:( but this pc is still clean!!
I believe they should make two to three chassis to choose from. A ultra high tower, High tower, mid tower for which they made and looks good. But I would like to see this design in a high to ultra high tower tower configuration with the same look for the mid just bigger.
