The alluring top-end configuration of the Alienware x16 R2 also sports a good-looking 240Hz QHD+ panel with 100% DCI-P3. Thanks to a considerable discount of well over $1,000, the RTX 4090 gaming laptop is now on sale for a quite enticing sale price.

Some gamers with deep pockets are probably still in the hunt for an RTX 4090-powered gaming laptop which is powerful enough to play the latest triple-A titles at 4K and decent frame rates. The Alienware x16 R2 is one of those notebooks, and thanks to a massive price cut, the 16-inch machine is also one of the more enticing options in the flagship segment.

Thankfully, the Alienware x16 R2 with the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card with 16GB GDDR6 VRAM is now on sale for one of its lowest prices thus far as the coupon code "LTAFF400" shaves another $400 off the already reduced sale price at Dell's official online store.

As a result, the Alienware gaming laptop can now be ordered for just $2,295 instead of the official MSRP of $3,655, which means that gamers can benefit from significant savings of 37% or $1,360. The aforementioned price applies to the RTX 4090 configuration with the 240Hz QHD+ screen, which sports 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space and can reach up to 300 nits.

Additionally, this model variant of the Alienware x16 is equipped with 32GB RAM, a spacious 2TB SSD and the AlienFX RGB keyboard. Even though we haven't tested this exact version of the Alienware x16 R2, prospective buyers should check out our comprehensive review as our test unit was powered by the same Core Ultra 9 185H processor.

We found that the rather bulky Alienware gaming laptop didn't improve much compared to its direct predecessor, which is why our review video on YouTube is also worth checking out. Since the R1 is no longer available at Dell, high-end gamers might want to consider the Alienware x16 R2 as the RTX 4090 notebook features high-end components and is now notably cheaper than earlier this year.
