Dell Alienware Aurora ACT1250 desktop

This Alienware Aurora ACT1250 desktop computer is built for high-end gaming and AI workloads. It ships with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F processor, 64GB of DDR5 memory and a GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card with 16GB of GDDR7 memory. A 240mm liquid cooler and a 1000W Platinum-rated power supply support sustained performance.

Suits 4K gamers and AI developers.

The system targets enthusiasts who need 20-core CPU throughput, 1801 AI TOPS and 4K ray-traced gaming in a single chassis. Buyers who need a smaller footprint, quieter air-cooled operation or a lower power draw should consider alternative form factors. The 18.05 x 7.75 x 16.46 inch case and 34 lb weight require adequate desk space and structural support.

64GB DDR5 memory capacity

The platform provides 64GB of DDR5 system memory as standard. This capacity determines whether the machine can hold large texture pools, language-model contexts or multi-application workloads without paging. If your workflow demands more than 64GB, this configuration will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

Will my older USB 2.0 peripherals still work with the Aurora ACT1250's two USB 2.0 ports?

Yes, the two USB 2.0 ports on the rear panel accept legacy keyboards, mice, printers and other USB 2.0 devices without adapters.

How can I confirm the liquid cooler is keeping the Ultra 7 265F within its 5.3 GHz boost envelope after assembly?

Open Task Manager or a monitoring utility and watch the CPU frequency; sustained speeds near 5.3 GHz under load show the 240 mm cooler is doing its job.

Does the box include a display, or do I need to buy a monitor separately?

A monitor is not included; the package contains the desktop, a wired keyboard, a wired mouse and the power cord only.
