Now that the RTX 5070 has been available for a while, we're starting to see the first promising price cuts on pre-built gaming PCs carrying the new graphics card.

Take the latest Alienware Aurora, for example, which has just received its first-ever price cut at the official Dell Store. Right now, you can pick up the RTX 5070 configuration with an Ultra 9 chipset and 32GB of DDR5 RAM for $2,399.99 (was $2,649) thanks to a decent $250 price cut.

Graphics card: GeForce RTX 5070
Processor: Intel Ultra 9-285K
RAM: 32GB DDR5
Storage: 2TB

This $250 price cut is the first discount I've seen on the latest Alienware Aurora gaming PC with an RTX 5000 series card. The configuration in question here is one with an RTX 5070 graphics card, Ultra 9 chipset, 32GB of RAM, and a 2TB SSD, which are great specs for 1440p gaming. With that said, I'd still say this machine is a little on the pricey side for what you're getting.

Storage: 2TB

While there's no discount on this CyberPowerPC gaming PC at Best Buy it's easily one of the best value options on the market currently if you're looking for an RTX 5070 pre-built. Not only are you paying a fair price for a machine with this graphics card, but this one also features one of the best gaming processors on the market in the form of the Ryzen 7-9800X3D.

Processor: AMD Ryzen 7-9800X3D 
RAM: 32GB DDR5
Storage: 1TB

Another great pre-built with an RTX 5070 and Ryzen 7-9800X3D, this ABS Stratos at Newegg is currently on sale with a decent $400 price cut at the retailer. Again, this is a great bang for the buck machine - although it does annoyingly feature a rather measly 1TB SSD, which isn't that much storage for a machine of this calibre.
