    Gain entry to the fortress: Both easy-access doors, crafted from a single structural panel, are designed to protect electronics and internals from debris and interference with other components.

    Engineered with intention: The largest available Alienware desktop cavity is outfitted with efficient cable management clamps and four independent HDD cable clips, graphics brackets and locks to keep your cards securely fastened. Even the wireless antennae housing is optimized for the very best reception and placed at the highest point of the system.

    Iconic architecture: The Triad design is anchored by the PSU and forged from an internal carbon powder-coated metal skeleton that features solid, staked-in rubber grommets.

    Triad chassis. Intelligent design.

    Don’t just beat the heat. Annihilate it: Alienware Advanced Liquid Cooling is a revolutionary cooling solution made with high-quality cold copper plates and a 120x120x48 mm radiator — the biggest there is.

    Epically efficient: A critical fan is attached to the radiator and cools the liquid that flows from the Split Flow Copper CPU block. It also features Alienware’s quietest pump, using a double ceramic bearing, durable nylon tubing and a 2850RPM pump cycle.* Even the voltage regulators and chipset include passive heatsinks so you’ll never overheat – even when you’re overclocked.

    Ridiculously awesome – inside and out.
