Dell Alienware Aurora R16 Features And Specifications
Dell Alienware Aurora R16 is 40 percent smaller in size compared to its predecessor, the Aurora R15. However, the internal chamber in the Aurora R16 is equal in volume to the R15.
In terms of design, the Aurora R16 features 56 percent post-consumer recycled plastics, which the company says is the highest on any Alienware desktop. The desktop is made with a minimum of 11 percent recycled steel.
Alienware Aurora R16 comes with options of 13th and 14th Gen Intel Core processors along with up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 GPU. Connectivity options on the laptop include Wi-Fi 6 (or 6E), and 2.5Gbps Ethernet for both wired and wireless connections. It supports up to 32GB of 5600 MT/s DDR5 memory and 1TB of SSD storage.
The Legend 3.0 design has been introduced on a desktop for the first time on Aurora R16. It ensures an increase in airflow efficiencies for a quieter and cooler operation. An oval lighting loop, which the company calls the Stadium loop on the left side of the chassis, traces the main vent, providing for a larger air intake.
The Aurora R16 offers upgrades in terms of performance compared to its predecessors and sports a significantly smaller design. It is also the first desktop by Alienware to come with the new Alienware Command Center, a software that focuses on gaming features.
With the Alienware Command Center, gamers can easily access essential settings like game-specific profiles, themes, lighting customization, macros, audio configurations, and more. It lets gamers choose from 16.7 million colours from three lighting zones to enhance the gaming experience. The preferences can be saved across the entire Alienware ecosystem.
“Staying true to Alienware’s legacy of innovation and premium performance, we continue revolutionizing the desktop experience with the Aurora R16. This desktop is an engineering marvel that not only broadens our gaming arsenal but also makes the Alienware Aurora more accessible to consumers while creating new opportunities for a wider range of players because of its pricing, efficient design and improved ventilation,” Product Marketing Director of Consumer and Small Business at Dell Technologies India Pujan Chadha, said in a press release.
