What Buyers Say
Dell Aurora AWR11-7498BLK-PUS Dark Side Of The Moon 2021
60 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews
The Alienware Aurora R11 garners both praise and criticism from users. Many appreciate its strong performance in gaming and robust build quality, with some finding it reasonably priced compared to direct purchases from Dell. However, significant complaints arise about misleading advertisements regarding liquid cooling and a perceived lack of performance improvement over previous generations. Reliability issues like high failure rates for components such as video cards and motherboards are also noted, though Dell's warranty service is sometimes responsive.

- Good value for video cards
Cons
- Misleading liquid cooling claims
