As we move into Thanksgiving week, Black Friday Alienware deals are already spinning up, even with a few more days to go before the Big One. That means you're already well-positioned to find discounts ready to grab right now, whether you're looking for a relatively cheap RTX 4060 gaming laptop or a full-power RTX 4090 PC.

If you thought it might be tricky to grab those bigger beasts, you might be surprised. RTX 4080 and RTX 4090 laptops and PCs are available at decent discounts, as high as $700 in some case. Of course, you should still be able to find options cheaper than those, with the Alienware M16 in particular still only pushing a little above the $1,000 mark.

We track all the best Alienware laptops and the best Alienware PCs year-round for their biggest discounts, and we've been covering these annual sales for years. In all that time, I've picked up a thing or two about hunting down the highest value deals. You'll find all my tips and tricks for Black Friday Alienware deals 2024 just below.

What to expect from Black Friday Alienware deals in 2024

Alienware Aurora R13 review

(Image credit: Future)

Black Friday Alienware deals will mostly land on the Aurora R16 this year. These models are the most recent but, despite being older, we still see regular discounts (and plenty of stock) when it comes to the R15 as well. We'd recommend taking a look at these models if you're after a cheaper 12th generation rig - after all, we've seen those prices crashing down in recent months. Despite being one of the best Alienware PCs on the market, this model often offers the best value overall.

The R16 is still going to be priced a little higher in November's Black Friday gaming PC deals, but we're still confident in three-figure savings. The biggest value is found in the mid-range here, as we often see higher value graphics cards and larger RAM sizes priced only slightly higher than entry level configurations when on sale. You'd do best to price match between retailers here, though, as there will be plenty of different versions floating around with different discounts on the day.

Those after an Alienware laptop will be sticking with Dell for newer M16 and M18 R2 releases, but heading to other retailers like Best Buy and Amazon for older models.

Last year the M16 saw the most discounts, with an RTX 4070 configuration dipping as low as $1,399 in last year's Black Friday Alienware deals. The X16 has been a little more stubborn, shedding around $300 from its MSRP every time - but that still translates to an RTX 4080 / i9-13900HK configuration sitting at $2,999.99 during larger sales.

If you're after cheaper Black Friday gaming laptop deals, it's worth expanding your search to other retailers. Dell itself doesn't carry too much stock of its previous generation laptops, so the best Black Friday Alienware deals on the M15 R5/6 and the original versions of the x15 and x17 will likely be found at Newegg or Amazon.

When will Black Friday Alienware deals start?

Inline with the rest of this year's sales official discounts will land on November 29. However, that's just the sales with the Black Friday label on them. We see many of the same prices popping up in the weeks leading up to the main event, and often most frequently over Thanksgiving week. That means it's well worth jumping on a price you like ahead of time - competition is lower and you've got more of a shot at that crashing flash sale.
