The Alienware Area-51 desktop is re-engineered with the 2nd Gen Ryzen Threadripper processors, a 2nd gen triad chassis, and optional triple Radeon RX graphics.
Gaming is better than ever on Windows 10, with games in 4K, DirectX 12, and streaming your gameplay.
The Alienware Area-51 delivers unbeatable performance with up to AMD 2nd Gen Ryzen Threadripper processors. Record, game and stream simultaneously in 4K resolutions with options for 12 and 16 core overclocked CPUs.
With optional 64GB of quad-channel DDR4 memory, you can create games that go beyond what you thought was possible. So whether you’re rendering a 3D model, editing photography, video or sound, know that your only limit is your imagination.
Alienware breaks the mold once again with world-bending graphics options including dual-liquid cooled NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card, factory overclocked NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics, and up to triple AMD Radeon RX configurations. You get the best of both worlds from the highest-performance AMD Crossfire or NVIDIA SLI technologies--increased performance, low noise operation, and incredible 16K high-fidelity gaming. With the highest-grade professional graphics, this machine is ideal for users interested in using their graphical power for tasks beyond gaming, like cryptocurrency mining or heavy simulations using GPUs.
A revolutionary new second generation triad chassis with retooled swinging cage supports tool-less graphics and expansion cards for the first time ever on an Area-51, extending the life of your system with easy-to-access components. Also added is the PCL-e card door, which eliminates plastic retention with a screw-less rotation door. And by designing the system with a door built from a single, structural panel, internal components always stay secure.
The triad design is forged from an internal carbon powder-coated metal skeleton and features solid, staked-in rubber grommets. A large surface area holds an internal, stamped-metal panel with cable management ports and 5 storage bays.
Experience seamless connectivity with 14 USB ports, including four slots on the front panel with Gen 1 ports spanning 2.0, 3.0 and 3.1. The largest available Alienware desktop cavity is also outfitted with efficient cable management clamps plus four independent HDD cable clips, graphics brackets and locks to keep your cards securely fastened.
The new chassis features high-quality cold copper plates and a 120x120 mm radiator to guarantee your system stays cool under pressure.
Area-51 features the quietest pump, a double ceramic bearing, super durable dark gray nylon tubing and a 2850 RPM pump cycle guaranteed for up to 50,000 hours of use. Voltage regulators and passive heatsink chipsets prevent overheating.
