Best Buy is currently offering an unbeatable deal on the highly acclaimed Alienware m16 R2 RTX 4070 gaming laptop. For a limited time, from Friday to Saturday, you can snag this powerhouse for just $1,374.99 with free shipping. This represents a massive $500 savings compared to purchasing directly from Dell. The Alienware m16 R2 has earned its reputation as a top choice among gamers due to its superior build quality, exceptional gaming performance, and competitive pricing. The "R2" model, released in 2024, is the second generation of this series and is 14% lighter and more compact than its predecessor, yet it retains the same high level of performance.

Alienware m16 R2 16" QHD+ Intel Core Ultra 7 155H RTX 4070 Gaming Laptop with 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD

Original Price: $1,899.99
Discount: 28%
Deal Price at Best Buy: $1,374.99

This laptop boasts a 16" 2560x1600 QHD+ display, an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor, a GeForce RTX 4070 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H is a power-efficient, low-voltage Meteor Lake CPU with a max turbo frequency of 4.8GHz and 16 total cores. While Best Buy also offers a Core Ultra 9 model for an additional $300, the RTX 4070 in this version is more than sufficient for gaming, as most games are primarily GPU-limited rather than CPU-limited.

To run games smoothly at the enhanced 2560x1600 resolution, a robust GPU is essential. Alienware ensures that the RTX 4070 in the m16 R2 operates at full capacity with a 115W (140W with Dynamic Boost) TGP. This GPU is capable of running most games at 60fps or higher on the 1600p display, especially when utilizing DLSS 3.0 technology.

Purchasing from Best Buy, an authorized Dell retailer, grants you the same 1-year warranty as buying directly from Dell. The laptop is currently in stock and will be delivered within a week.
