Both discounted models share an impressive set of hardware:
Gaming on the Alienware m16 R2
The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H strikes a good balance between performance and efficiency. As the follow-up to the Intel Core i7, it provides similar power while generating less heat and offering better battery life. For gaming, the Ultra 7 is more than sufficient, making an upgrade to the pricier Ultra 9 unnecessary for most users.
Graphics performance is where these laptops stand out. The RTX 4060 offers solid performance, comparable to the RTX 3070 or 3070 Ti, and can handle modern games smoothly at the QHD+ resolution. The RTX 4070 steps things up with power similar to the RTX 3080, making it better suited for higher settings or frame rates at 1440p. Both GPUs support NVIDIA DLSS 3.0, which enhances performance and visuals in supported titles.
$1999 Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090
Looking into the future of graphics cards instead? RockPaperShotgun Hardware Editor,James Archer, is suspicious of Nvidia’s RTX 50 series, for now, stating:
“Nvidia finally announced their RTX 50 series graphics cards, and can I just say that I am wise to the RTX 5090’s tricks. A GPU that eats up to 575W and costs £1939 / $1999? Yeah, nice try, Geoffrey N. Vidia, but such a mad card couldn’t possibly exist in reality. It’s clearly only here to make the other ones, the RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5070, look like better deals.”
