Alienware Aurora R12 Gaming Desktop | Dell Canada
Powerhouse desktop with 11th Gen Intel® Core™ processors in a chassis designed for high-performance gaming and tool-less upgradability features
INCREDIBLY IMMERSIVE. INTENTIONALLY INGENIOUS.
RAISING THE BAR ONCE AGAIN
Made for multitasking: With up to 128GB of overclockable high performance XMP DDR4 memory, there’s no limit to what all you can do at one time. The Aurora R12 can double as a gaming content editing system or gamers can stream and record while chatting and looking up guides during game play.
Imposing power: Our new 80 PLUS Gold rated optional 1000W and 550W power supplies have been selected to power the latest graphics technologies. Engineered for exceptional levels of power efficiency, the 1000W power supply delivers incredible overall performance thanks to a highly efficient signal going into each of your components.
INNOVATIVE GRAPHICS POWER, AIRFLOW, AND COOLING
Extensive cooling: Our thermal design includes quad 10mm copper heat pipes with integrated vapor chambers – our largest diameter heat pipe design to date – designed for exceptional gaming performance.
Innovative airflow: Another added boost for graphics performance is made possible by a dual-axial fan design with positive rear pressure relief – a new Alienware first for graphics cards. The positive rear pressure relief allows heat to escape from specially located vents designed to aid with flow and thermal management. This new approach is built with gamers in mind.
Engineered for efficiency: These custom graphics card designs, included in both NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 and 3090 graphics, are built with space efficiency with a max length of just 267mm that covers a 2.5x slots and offers a dual 6-pin/8-pin PCI-Express power connectors. All these choices have been made to create efficiency with uncompromised gaming performance.
Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS): Using AI rendering, NVIDIA® DLSS delivers a massive performance boost at the same power when compared to other graphics cards at similar resolutions.
NVIDIA Ampere Streaming Multiprocessors (SM): NVIDIA’s 2nd Gen RTX graphics cards come with the building blocks for incredibly fast and efficient GPUs. The all-new Ampere SM brings higher throughput allowing for faster data processing while offering improved power efficiency when compared to previous gen graphics cards.
Resizable BAR: Resizable BAR is an advanced PCI-Express feature available on NVIDIA’s 2nd Gen RTX graphics cards that enables the CPU to access the entire GPU frame buffer at once and designed to improve performance in games.

My Aurora R12 has been great, I don’t know what I have been doing/using until now.

I love my new Aurora R12. From unpacking to playing, I was completely amazed. Looking forward to may years before my next Alienware!

So far I can’t complain, however I don’t have any software to push the pc yet.

So far so good. Still getting used to the machine and dealing of Windows 10 Home vs Pro which was on my old computer. It is a very easy GUI to use. I don’t like that there is no physical manual or how to’s (i.e. : how to open the case!!! This is a very big deal)? Should not have to go to a non dell(Alienware) site to even find User and Technical details on the Aurora R12. Do you need a technical writer?

decent pc I had no problems with ur better off building ur own tho but its still pretty decent. Also I accidentally purchased 8gb of ram instead of 16 so don’t do that. It ran vr really well and all my other games also did great. You can also upgrade the parts in the future without having to buy a whole new pc.
