The Aurora copied 4.97GB of files at a rate of 1,272.32 MBps, proving far faster in that regard than the Maingear or iBuypower. On Geekbench 4.3, the Aurora notched a multi-core score of 42,344, outpacing the Maingear Vybe ( Intel Core i9-10900K overclocked to 5.3 GHz), the iBuypower Gaming RDY iBuypower Gaming RDY IWBG207 (Intel Core i9-10900KF) and HP Omen Obelisk ( Intel Core i9-9900K). This design has been cut down to a maximum length of 267mm (10.5 inches), and the card occupies 2.5 slots, rather than the 3-slots you see on the RTX 3090 Founders Edition. Alienware’s Custom RTX 3090įitting an RTX 3090 in the Aurora R11’s 33.8-liter chassis requires customizing the GPU shroud (Alienware also did this for the RTX 3080). The iBuypower was a few games behind in each scenario.

On Red Dead Redemption 2 (medium settings), the benchmark ran on the Aurora at 115 fps at 1080p and 49 fps at 4K, handily beating last gen systems. This was the one rare situation where the iBuypower and the RTX 3080 actually outperformed, but not by much. There were smaller gains here than over some older cards but still noticeable, especially with higher resolutions. With Far Cry New Dawn at ultra settings, the Aurora ran the benchmark at 117 fps at 1080p and 99 fps in 4K. Again, the Aurora beat the iBuypower by 10 frames at 4K but only by a smidge at 1080p. On the Grand Theft Auto V benchmark, the Aurora hit 161 fps at 1080p resolution and 64 fps at 4K on very high settings, blowing away desktops with 20-series GPUs. It beat the RTX 3080-based iBuypower, though the gains were more visible in 4K. The Alienware tore through Shadow of the Tomb Raider on its highest settings at both 1080p (149 fps) and 4K (64 fps), easily surpassing both the Vybe and Obelisk. The game often fell to the mid-50s in heavy combat, including a boss battle with Hiss-corrupted Tommasi. I played Control at 4K resolution with RTX at its highest settings, as well as DLSS on, and the game was largely stable around 60 frames per second (fps). Our Aurora R11 review unit came packed with an RTX 3090, Nvidia’s most powerful card (See below for more details on what Alienware did to fit it in this system and cool it). Gaming and Graphics on the Alienware Aurora R11 The wireless card is also accessible, should you want to change it. Beyond that, there are two 2.5-inch drive bays on the bottom. Our review unit had a 2TB PCIe M.2 SSD on the motherboard and a 2TB, 7,200-rpm HDD in the front, above the fan. There’s also a ton of additional space for storage. There are four RAM slots (ours were filled, but again, room for growth if you didn’t get the to -of the line model). There’s a standard Z490 CPU socket, so other 10th Gen Intel chips can slot in if you didn’t get a top-end chip like we did. Ours came with a 1000W power supply (Alienware doesn’t specify a make or model, nor any PSU efficiency ratings), so that should last for a while. The design of the case, which spans several previous Aurora designs, is unique in that the power supply is inside a swing-arm system.
#DELL ALIENWARE AURORA R11 UPGRADE#
There’s plenty of room to upgrade and repair. On parent company Dell’s website, it lists the motherboard as a icro-ATX. Otherwise, there are switches to unlock to remove the panel. Once you take it out, you don’t need to replace it. The computer ships with a Phillips head screw in the lever that pops off the left side panel to keep it secure. If you have peripherals or extra drives to plug in, you have a ton of options.
The motherboard has six USB 2.0 Type-A ports, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A and three USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, as well as a ton of audio offerings and an Ethernet jack. In the light ring below the power button are three USB 3.2 Type-A Gen 1 ports, a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port, a 3.5mm headphone jack and separate microphone jack. There are a lot of ports on the Aurora R11, including on the front.
