At a glance, the new Aurora R15 looks very similar to the redesign introduced with the Aurora R13. Inside though, it features some important reconfigurations designed to tackle heat dissipation, noise levels, and power delivery. These have been some of the line’s biggest pain points in recent years, despite strong performance otherwise.Alienware has replaced the old 120mm AIO loop with a 240mm AIO in the Aurora R15. The AIO is subsequently relocated from the rear to the top of the chassis. It is joined by two intake fans in front and an exhaust fan holding the old AIO position in the rear.
