Black Friday proper is just around the corner, but Dell has decided to kick off its Black Friday Sale early with deals on several of its Dell and Alienware gaming PCs and laptops. More deals will be added as we get closer to November 24, but some of the discounts are already the best we’ve seen all year.
The Best Dell Black Friday Deals
PS5 Slim Spider-Man 2 Gaming Console Bundle for $499.99
Dell currently has the new PS5 Slim Disc edition console in stock. The best thing about this deal is that you get a copy of the Spider-Man 2 game for free. The new PS5 Slim is smaller in volume by more than 30%. It’s also 18% lighter than its predecessor. The internal hardware specs are identical; this model includes a built-in 4K UHD Blu-ray drive. A horizontal stand is included. You’d have to buy a vertical stand separately, however, the PS5 Slim can stand on its own.
Xbox Series S Gaming Console Starting at $224.99
Dell currently has the best deal we’ve seen for the Xbox Series S console. It’s normally $299.99 but Dell has two discounted options: the Xbox Series S standalone for $224.99, or the Xbox Series S Starter Kit that comes bundled with 3 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $234.99. I suggest getting the starter kit because 3 months of Game Pass for $10 is a solid deal.
Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 4080 Gaming PC for $1949.99
As part of its Dell Black Friday Sale event, Dell has the 2023 Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 4080 gaming PC for only $1949.99 after a $550 instant discount. This is currently the least expensive Alienware (or Dell) RTX 4080 equipped gaming PC on Dell’s website. The R16 looks radically different from the familiar Aurora styling we’ve seen for the past several years. In my opinion it looks great, but more importantly, Dell claims that the significantly smaller chassis runs cooler and quieter than before. The RTX 4080 is the second most powerful card on the market. It’s much more powerful than previous generation cards, performing about 50% faster than an RTX 3080 Ti. If you’re not convinced, check out our RTX 4080 review.
Alienware Aurora R16 Intel Core i9 RTX 4060 Gaming PC for $1099.99
This is an excellent price for the newest generation Alienware Aurora R16 equipped with a 13th gen Intel Core i7 Raptor Lake CPU and a current gen GeForce RTX 4060 GPU. The RTX 4060 is considerably more powerful than the RTX 3060 and almost nearly matches the RTX 3060 Ti. I would recommend this card for comfortable 1080p gaming although you can also run games at 1440p.
$1100 Off This Stacked Alienware Aurora RTX 4090 Gaming PC
Update: Select the upgrade to a 4TB SSD AND a 1TB HDD for $0!
Dell is offering $1100 off this Alienware Aurora R15 gaming PC equipped with an Intel Core i9-13900KF processor, the top-of-the-line GeForce RTX 4090 GPU, a whopping 64GB of RAM, and an equally impressive 4TB NVMe SSD. This isn’t the absolute lowest price we’ve seen on Alienware RTX 4090 equipped gaming PCs, but the small price premium is worth the extra upgrades that Dell has included. For those of you who want to stick to a specific aesthetic, the chassis sports a clean white (Lunar White) theme instead of black.
Alienware m16 RTX 4070 Gaming Laptop for $1399.99
This Alienware m16 laptop features a 16″ 2560×1600 QHD+ display, your choice between the Intel Core i7-13700HX or AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX processor, GeForce RTX 4070 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-4800MHz RAM and a 1TB NVMe SSD. If you’re not married to a brand, I’d recommend the Ryzen CPU because it’s a superior performer. The AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX CPU features a 5.2GHz max boost clock with 12 cores, 24 threads, and a sizeable 76MB cache. This is one of the fastest CPUs around. The RTX 4070 mobile GPU performs on par with the RTX 3080. It’s a little bit faster than the RTX 3070 Ti but not quite as powerful as the RTX 3080 Ti. You’ll need this kind of power to run games comfortably on the laptop’s beefed up 2560×1600 or QHD+ display.
Alienware Aurora R15 RTX 4060 Ti Gaming PC for $1399.99
Note: You can upgrade to RTX 4070 for $100 or RTX 4080 for $650.
The RTX 4060 Ti 8GB video card is the ideal GPU for 1080p gaming, although it can definitely handle 1440p gaming as well. It’s about 5%-10% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti at 1080p. Unlike the previous gen RTX 30 series cards, RTX 40 series cards all support DLSS 3.0 and 3.5 technology. For games that support it (like the Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty DLC), it offers better framerates with minimal visual impact.
Dell XPS RTX 4060 Ti Gaming PC for $1299.99
32GB RAM and 3TB of Combined Storage
This Dell XPS PC is equipped just as well as any Alienware gaming PC but in a simpler and more understated chassis. It features an Intel Core i7-13700 CPU and GeForce RTX 4060 Ti GPU, which are great components for the price. Even better, though, is that this PC comes with a whopping 32GB of DDR5 RAM as well as dual storage drives: a 1TB NVMe SSD boot drive and a 2TB 7200RPM hard drive for storage.
Dell G15 RTX 4060 Gaming Laptop for $999.99
This is the least expensive RTX 4060 gaming laptop that’s listed on Dell right now. The G-series laptops are less expensive than their Alienware counterparts, but they still make excellent gaming rigs. This particular laptop is outfitted with an Intel Core i7-13650HX CPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The RTX 4060 mobile graphics card sits right in between the RTX 3070 and RTX 3070 Ti in terms of performance. That’s a lot of power for a sub-$1000 laptop. It gives you plenty of oomph for running games on the native 1080p display.
Alienware m16 RTX 4090 Gaming Laptop for $2799.99
This Alienware m16 laptop comes equipped with a 16″ 2560×1600 QHD+ display, Intel Core i9-13900HX CPU, GeForce RTX 4090 GPU, 32GB of DDR5-4800MHz RAM and a 2TB NVMe SSD. The 4090 is far and away the most powerful mobile GPU availble by a huge margin. It’s roughly equivalent to a desktop RTX 3090 / RTX 4070 Ti GPU. In real world terms, this GPU is more than capable enough of handling any game at the display’s native QHD+ resolution at framerates of 60fps and beyond, even with ray tracing enabled.
34″ Alienware AW3423DWF QD OLED Gaming Monitor
The Alienware AW3423DWF is one of only two QD OLED gaming monitors that Dell sells. This 34″ monitor sports a 3440×1440 WQHD resolution with a 1ms response time and 165Hz refresh rate. It uses a Samsung quantum dot OLED panel. Quantum dot, or “QD”, OLED panels are brighter than traditional OLED panels without losing the color accuracy and range and wide viewing angles that OLEDs are known for. The AW3423DWF boasts a 99.3% DCI-P3 color range and is factory calibrated with a Delta E less than 2. It is HDR True Black 400 certified and boasts up to 1,000nits of peak brightness.
Alienware AW3821DW 38″ Gaming Monitor for $799 + $200 Dell eGift Card
The Alienware AW3821DW is Dell’s largest gaming monitor. It features a 3840×1600 ultrawide resolution with a gentle 2300R curve, up to 1ms gtg response time, and 144Hz refresh rate. It uses a high quality Nano IPS panel (similar to QLED) that you find in higher end LG monitors, which offers deeper, richer colors than a typical LED LCD monitor. This monitor is both VESA DisplayHDR 600 and G-SYNC Ultimate certified. G-SYNC “Ultimate” monitors contain an even higher-end NVIDIA processor built into this monitor for better HDR.
Buy a Switch OLED, Get a $75 Dell eGift Card
Dell is offering a bonus $75 Dell promotional gift card when you purchase the Nintendo Switch OLED gaming console with white Joy-Cons. You will receive the gift card via email within 20 days after the Xbox ships and it will expire 90 days thereafter. Use the gift card to buy a Switch accessory or game like the Pro controller, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, and more.
Buy the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Headset, Get a $75 Dell eGift Card
Dell is offering a bonus $75 Dell eGift Card when you purchase either the PS5/PC or Xbox versions of the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless gaming headset for $349.99. Just an FYI, the Xbox version also works for PS5 and PC, so that’s definitely the model most people should chooose. This is personally my favorite gaming headset, period. It offerse great sound quality, comfortable ergonomics, and rarely seen features in gaming headsets like active noise cancelling, hot-swappable rechargeable battery packs and a separate control center with a beefy volume dial and OLED display.

Why Pick a Dell or Alienware Gaming PC?
Not everyone is the DIY type, and building your own PC is definitely not for everyone. If you’re in the market for a prebuilt gaming PC, Dell is one of best brands we’d recommend. The Alienware gaming desktops offer a staggering array of options, all built into a custom chassis that’s both easy on the eyes and easy on the wallet. Alienware gaming laptops in recent years have been redesigned to be thinner and lighter while still offering the same immense power under the hood. Consistent build quality, available inventory, frequent sales, and solid customer service are the main reasons why Dell is at the top of our buying list. Below, you’ll find some of the best deals available on PCs and laptops on Dell right now.
