If you're on the hunt for a new gaming PC, then Dell's Labor Day sale is a great option today. Several of the brand's high-end Alienware Aurora and Area-51 models are on sale with some of the best discounts I've seen all year - up to $600 off, in fact.

The brand's Aurora desktops start at just $1,099 (was $1,499) today for a model with an entry-level RTX 5060 configuration. While still a little pricey compared to some super-cheap options elsewhere, this particular config is definitely a good option for a solid 1080p gaming setup. It's not too pricey, while still featuring enough power to run all the latest games smoothly at 1080p.

For something a little more powerful, why not consider this Area-51 machine with an RTX 5070 for $2,899 (was $3,499). This 2025 model is a new one from the brand, and unlike some previous entries, it's designed from the ground up to be much easier to upgrade. The major selling point, however, is the absolutely stunning new case.

I've highlighted two models here, but it's worth noting that today's Labor Day discounts at Dell go across the entire range of Alienware machines. That means you'll find machines with RTX 5080 and even RTX 5090 graphics cards with similar discounts if you want to get something truly ridiculous to last a few good years down the line.

Today's Labor Day sale at Dell offers a huge $400 price cut on this entry-level Alienware Aurora - my pick for the best bang-for-the-buck machine at the official site right now. Under the hood, you not only get a decent (and new) RTX 5060 graphics card, but also an Ultra 7 chipset for smooth 1080p gaming. While it would have been great to see 32GB of RAM here, that's an easy and cheap upgrade down the line.

Dell's Labor Day sale includes some very, very enticing deals on gaming laptops. Case in point - this Alienware 16 Aurora. This is one of the more budget-oriented machines from the brand, but you're still getting a powerful Ultra 7 chipset and a brand-new RTX 5060 graphics card. With $400 off, you're getting a really solid 1080p gaming machine here for the money.

Looking for something a little more powerful? My other favorite gaming laptop deal at Dell today is for this upgraded Aurora 16X. With an Ultra 9 and RTX 5070 graphics card, this one is all set for smooth frame rates at 1440p resolution for a few years. It's not cheap, but a $350 price cut definitely makes this a very competitive choice right now in the mid-range gaming laptop deals market.
