Area 51 R2 AlienFX Board Version Downgrade v9 to v7?

When re-installing Alienware Command Center v4.0.59.0 (latest version from Dell Site), I noticed it indicated downgrading my AlienFX Board version from 9.00.00 to 7.00.00. I then confirmed this via the AlienFX Tester Program as shown below.

What gives? Did my PC originally ship with a newer version of AlienFX than currently available on Dell.com? Should I be worried about this?

Thanks for any info you can share!

My AlienFX Tester shows this:

(Area 51 R2)

I noticed I have the Command Center Version 4.0.51.0 and if search for updates via the CC, it finds non. But when I search manually for downloads with my Service Tag, Dell Support shows me the 4.0.59.0 as the actual version.

Confusing ...
