best thing ever
With Windows 8.1 - for a smooth, versatile PC experience.
A legacy of excellence takes shape
You demand the best systems on Earth. Ever since their inception, Alienware has strived to deliver incredible gaming performance without sacrifice. You've never seen anything like the Alienware Area-51. It is more than an iconic design. It's a perfect convergence of power and design beauty. They reimagined this system from the inside out and built it without compromises. It is an engineering marvel and a completely new experience that performs true to their legacy of excellence.
Triad chassis. Intelligent design
Get inside
The Area-51's three corners are built to support 5 times the system's weight. Pivot the system towards you and gain easy access to the rear ports when connecting or disconnecting cables. There is even a button on the back of the chassis that turns on the rear accessibility lighting to reduce the need of having to use a flashlight.
Carry on
Transport your ultimate gaming rig anywhere. The rugged handles make the Area-51 more natural to carry. The shape and internal component layout are designed to have a low center of gravity to avoid the system from tipping when being lifted.
Easy access
The angular shape is designed to have all the I/O ports facing you directly, making connecting a USB device, headphones or even a media card reader easier than on a traditional rectangular chassis design.
Designed to keep cool
Internal fans blow fresh ambient air, quietly and directly, onto the graphics cards and the internal cable management enables maximum airflow - satisfying your system's hunger for cooler air and keeping it performing at its peak. The angled design also provides a large space for hot air to escape where a traditional, rectangular chassis only leaves a small space between it and the wall.
Behold the jaw-dropping power of 12K
Unstoppable graphics capabilities can enable a mind-melting 11520x2160 resolution across triple Ultra HD 4K monitors. The new Area-51 is designed to support up to three full-length double-wide graphics cards or quad GPU configurations (available soon). It's not just the highest-performance gaming experience - it's a breathtaking display you can lose yourself in.
Processing powerhouse
New. Liquid-cooled. Overclocked
The Alienware Area-51 ushers in a new era of performance with Windows 8.1 and 6-core or 8-core Intel Core i7 Extreme processor (This model has Intel Core i7-5820K 3.3GHz 6 core processor) options that come factory overclocked and made possible with the new Intel X99 Express chipset and 2133Mhz DDR4 memory - up to 32GB in quad channel. Do insane, intensive multitasking like rendering video or extreme performance 4K gaming at your leisure.
Ridiculously awesome - inside and out
Incredible power
Optional 1.5KW power supply (available soon) and modular cabling will ensure revved-up performance that is both highly efficient and reliably impressive.
Big storage. Pure speed
The storage bays support up to five drives of either SSD or HDD. Enjoy the pure speed of solid state and the big storage of hard drives - allowing for quick boot and massive archiving capabilities.
Connect with confidence
The Ethernet assembly has been built by Killer Technology. It prioritizes streaming video and gaming packets for the smoothest possible performance when you need it most. Plus, it comes fully equipped with 802.11ac - the latest wireless protocol.
