Alienware Aurora R16 Gaming Desktop Computer

It's a whole new game
The Alienware Aurora R16 marks the debut of our Legend 3 design in desktop form. This new design provides efficient airflow without
sacrificing performance — running cooler, quieter, offering equal or better performance than the Aurora R15 desktop — and the ability to
personalize your experience in an optimized chassis that's perfect for any setting.

Intentional thermal strategy
Our design prioritizes airflow efficiency and improved acoustics by introducing larger passageways and optimized internal cable
management resulting in 20% quieter operation, on average, and 7% lower temperatures compared to the Aurora R15. This approach —
combined with air or liquid cooling CPU options — contributes to an incredibly smooth gaming experience.

Game cool and quietly
Central to the Aurora R16's thermal strategy is the increase in its ventilation's total surface area. The
side hexagonal array, top surface exhaust, and the front stadium intake all provide significantly larger
pathways for ambient air to enter and heat to be exhausted. This increase is the driving force behind
the desktop's efficient airflow, cooling and acoustics.
The 240mm heat exchanger, available on the optional CPU liquid cooling, heightens thermal
resistance, ensuring temperatures stay consistently low during longer gaming sessions.

Total command
The Alienware Aurora R16 is our first gaming desktop to include the revamped Alienware Command Center software, where you can create
and edit AlienFX lighting across the ecosystem, choose and monitor your performance mode across distinct power states, and create custom
gaming profiles for your whole library.

Legend perfected
The R16 is our first gaming desktop to showcase the elevated Legend 3 industrial design, which is meant to prioritize a more minimal,
optimized chassis – that is sleek and modern – with a new matte finish, Basalt Black.
