Dell's gaming PC deals are currently offering up a massive $900 discount on the Alienware Aurora R12 today.

This specific Alienware Aurora R12 configuration features an 11th gen i9 CPU, RTX 3060 GPU, 32GB RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD for only $1,499 (was $2,400). While it is not unheard of to find an RTX 3060 PC deal at this rate, we hardly, if ever, see the Intel Core i9-11900F or 32GB RAM at this price point. This is one stellar gaming PC deal that you're not going to want to miss.

Usually, we're more used to seeing rigs running an i7 chipset and 16GB RAM at this price point, so you're benefitting from some serious power under the hood here at a very aggressive rate. Double the RAM is going to be immediately noticeable, especially when factoring in the 12GB VRAM afforded by the RTX 3060, so everything will tick over nicely.

If you want to go all-in on AMD, however, then there's also the Alienware Aurora R10 Ryzen Edition with an AMD Ryzen 9 5900 CPU, RX 6700 XT GPU, 32GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD for just $1,899.99 (was $2,530). Machines with this hardware scarcely feature a CPU as powerful as the 5900, instead usually running the 5600x or 5800x, so you're getting top-of-the-line processing power here.

Should you be after more of the best gaming PCs on a budget, however, we're also frequently rounding up the best cheap gaming PC deals, with options starting from just $629.
