The editors didn't like
Upgrades Quickly Raise Price
Base Features Could Really Be Higher
New case is still huge.
No 64-bit Vista option limits performance and memory support
Distinctive case design not for everyone.
Basic wired keyboard and mouse
Immense case
Limited expansion options
Standard warranty lasts a mere 90 days.
Incredibly heavy and imposingly large. Only one optical drive? At this price wed expect more than a oneyear warranty. 1200 watt power supply ensures the unit doubles as a space heater.
Software for customized lighting is still a work in progress.
Case can be gaudy looking to some
Fairly loud
Could be quieter
About $2
000 more than PCs with similar hardware
But with few benefits in performance or features
700-watt power supply not enough for SLI with the GeForce 8800 GTX 3D card it ships with.
Expensive
Hard drives are LOUD
SLI not enabled by default
Power button on the front of the case
Lacks the all-around polish of more expensive Alienware systems
Unexciting processor
Smallish hard drive
Lower End Dual Core Processor
Smaller Hard Drive
Big and Heavy
Some lower-priced systems offer better value
Productivity performance
Clunky Alienware case
Overclocking and other features reserved for a still higher-end Alienware system
No HDMI output.
Fairly Expensive
Base Hard Drive Is Too Small
Relatively Meager 3D Card For Gaming System
Tired case design
Expensive For Sure
Drive Bay Not Hot-Swap
Expensive Extended Warranty
Expected better performance. No top tray
USB cords better be long. Loud at startup. Need extra vertical room for vents.
Despite the big 3D card
The X51's slim-tower chassis still has a limited upgrade path
Huge tower. 128GB solid-state boot drive is on the small side. You need a 4K display to take advantage of the triple-GPU setup. Boutique gaming systems are still faster. Only one-year standard warranty
Pricey
Heavy Don't Cheat On Your PushUps
TriSLI Can Have Diminishing Returns
Not as many configuration options as the competition

De Alienware Area 51 is een hele bijzondere machine. Dat zie je direct al aan de vormgeving. Het is een systeem dat met veel zorg en aandacht is gemaakt en zeker voor wie een kant-en-klaar systeem zoekt een interessante keuze. Zeker in deze letterlijk e...
Alienware Area 51 - это почти эксклюзивный продукт (более эксклюзивным может быть только алюминиевый Alienware Area 51 ALX). Таким он задумывался для геймеров США, а что уж говорить о России, где на всю нашу необъятную территорию нет ни "зоны 51", ни друг...
High-end системы, подобные Alienware, многие пользователи считают чрезмерно дорогими и несбалансированными. По крайней мере, с последним аргументом для Area 51 мы не можем согласиться. Впрочем, не каждая конфигурация имеет смысл, поскольку у "младших" вар...

Масса технологических новшеств, сниженное энергопотребление, существенный потенциал повышения производительности по мере оптимизации кода реальных приложений.
Высокая цена
Процессор Core i7-4770 представляется весьма привлекательным выбором для множества «передовых» пользователей стационарных ПК. Прожженные энтузиасты наверняка предпочтут более дорогой вариант с расширенными возможностями разгона (скажем, Core i7-4770К), но...
