With an Intel Core i9 processor, GeForce RTX 3090 and RAM to spare, Alienware says this particular beast could run games in 8K at 60 frames-per-second (FPS) as we’ve already said however, that’s dependant on having a monitor that’ll actually take advantage of that. The unit we tested will set you back close to $8,000 AUD for that money, you’d certainly want performance to match. To say that the Aurora R13 is a powerhouse is doing it a disservice.

While the plastic used for the case is by no means cheap, it’s certainly a different take on a PC tower compared to my current rig, there’s a lot less glass to show off what it’s packing. We put the cover on to see what it looked like, then immediately removed it to save on the space needed to house the unit otherwise. When the back cover is included, you’ll notice a handy circular shape at the top of the unit, useful to look down to see which cables are in use. The optional back cover only serves to round out the Aurora’s overall form factor, itself stylised with hexogonal cutouts that help to manage airflow. On the right-hand side, you’ll find a styilised “Aurora” logo that splits the word up into three rows of two characters each. On the left of the unit, you’ll find a transparent side panel that shows off another set of Alienware logos - one on a sizeable heat sink - and even more flashier LEDs that really help to drive home the fancy 3090 that sits inside. The Alienware logo on the front not only lights up accordingly, but features as the unit’s power button. The solid white of the Aurora’s rounded, futuristic casing is accented by a simple black front that’s illuminated with a honeycomb, hexogonal effect and striking ring LEDs. The Aurora is standard Alienware fare, doing its best to look at home on the lens flare-heavy bridge of J.J. Across the front and back of the unit, you’ve got eleven various USB options, whilst audiophiles will delight with digital optical and surround sound options. We trialled the White Aurora R13 - though a Dark Side of the Moon, aka black, version is also available - and chose to leave an optional back cover off the unit for easy access to a multitude of ports. Look and feelīefore we get to the Aurora’s sheer performance, lets talk about how it looks. You know what they say though: a smaller resolution leads to more frames… so we attempted to find benchmarking tools that would take that into consideration. Spoilers: we couldn’t, so it was regular ol’ 1440p or 4K slumming for us. The Alienware Aurora returns for another year with the R13 set of pure beasts the review unit that made its way to Stevivor’s office sported nothing less than a ridiculously in-demand NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 and just begged us to try to find a monitor that could deliver 8K gaming. A lot of power in a futuristic container.
