GEAR CHECK: IS THIS PC ON YOUR LEVEL?

Full HD 1080p
Quad HD 1440p
CHECK YOUR SCORE
With a 3DMark Time Spy score of 2470, this system is at Step Into the Game class, which means the system is capable of providing a good user experience in the vast majority of 1080p games with medium – standard settings. Learn More
LOOKING FOR A VR-READY SYSTEM?
This model of the Alienware does not meet the recommended hardware requirements and testing (maintaining 90FPS) for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift.
3DMark Time Spy is a popular and effective benchmarking tool for rating gaming performance. It is used by millions of gamers, hundreds of hardware sites and many leading manufacturers. The higher the score, the better the performance and user experience. Note that the frames per second numbers indicate the typical FPS. You can read more about UL's benchmark tests here: Guide to Scores
Level 1 - (Step Into the Game) The system is capable of providing a good user experience in the vast majority of 1080p games with medium – standard settings.
Level 2 - (Next Level Of Gaming) You can comfortably play all current 1080p games with high graphics settings. All products on level 2 and above are ready for VR.
Level 3 - (Kick it Into High Gear) You can play all popular game titles with the same graphics setting as Level 2 and many games at max graphics setting at 1440p resolution.
Level 4 - (Elite Gaming Experience) Virtually all games run 60 FPS or more at 1440p resolution with highest graphics settings, and many games also run excellent in 4K resolution.
Not every system and configuration will be tested explicitly. The scores and data presented are provided by UL and are an estimate of expected performance. UL tests all hardware in controlled conditions. Benchmark results may vary on some systems but have a precision with a margin of 3 percent. Changes in software, such as system updates, driver updates, or changes to the game may affect performance. In very special cases, the device is of a nature that does not deliver consistent performance.
All PCs are tested with games running in 1080p resolution with medium quality settings. The more powerful PCs are also tested with games running in 1440p resolution with the highest graphical settings.
Operating System
Available with Windows 10 Home: Gaming is better than ever on Windows 10, with games in 4K, DirectX 12, and streaming your gameplay.*
Witness ultimate power.
Powerhouse performance: The Alienware Area-51 delivers unbeatable performance with AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors. Record, game and stream simultaneously in 4K resolutions with options for 8, 12, and 16 core overclocked CPUs.
More memory: 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.
A new graphical frontier
A gaming breakthrough: Alienware breaks the mold once again with world-bending graphics options including our first-ever dual AMD Radeon® RX Vega 64 graphics and first ever dual-liquid cooled NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 1080 graphics card 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.
Re-engineered with purpose
Second-gen triad chassis: A revolutionary new second generation triad chassis with a new retooled swinging cage supporting 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 PCI-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.
Superior materials: 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.
Access your entire ecosystem: Experience seamless connectivity with a total of 14 USB ports, including four ports on the front panel. 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.
Your system stays cool when your game is on fire.
Don’t just beat the heat. Annihilate it: The new chassis features high-quality cold copper plates and a 120x120 mm radiator to guarantee your system stays cool under pressure.
Epically efficient: 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.
