ALIENWARE AREA-51M Overview

FEATURES 

OPERATING SYSTEM

Available with Windows 10 Home: Gaming is better than before on Windows 10, with games in 4K, DirectX 12, and streaming your gameplay *.

CONSIDER GAME being changed

Alienware Area-51m is unlike any mobile gaming machine that has ever been made. With unprecedented desktop-level processing power, increased CPU and GPU capabilities, advanced cooling, and premium revolutionary design, a true desktop-gaming experience are now available as a laptop.

DESKTOP POWER IS PACKED TO LAPTOP

The 51m area displays the first number for peak performance and power. This is our first Alienware laptop that presents an 8-core, Intel® 16-thread processor, providing an entirely new level of computing power compared to other gaming laptops. 

Engineered with a desktop processor, this CPU is activated with a rated power of up to 125%, enabling top-class overclocking. This results in higher performance for mega-tasking, CPU intensive gaming, as well as everyday applications.

Lose yourself in a clear and uninterrupted game thanks to NVIDIA® GeForce RTX ™ graphics with full-throttle power and headroom overclocking up to 30W - all on an immersive 144Hz G-SYNC 17 "Full HD display. 

Users can overclock their settings through those the new Alienware Command Center, GeForce RTX ™ also gives you power generation performance, next-generation graphics, and NVIDIA technologies such as ray tracing, DLSS, and AI-enhanced graphics that are generated even to take the most challenging titles - now, and in the future.

the 51m area is also our first ever Alienware laptop to support up to 64GB of DDR4 memory, ensuring you have enough RAM for even the most performance-intensive tasks.

UNPRECEDENTED IMPROVEMENTS

Gamers have made it clear that they are paying attention to the lack of increased CPU and GPU capabilities in gaming laptops.

Area-51m was designed with this in mind, finally allowing gamers to utilize the power that is even comparable to the highest-performing desktops, and utilize the latest technologies from NVIDIA® such as ray tracing, DLSS, and AI-enhanced graphics.

CPU updates can be done using a standard desktop-class processor, while GPU upgrades can be done through the replacement of an onboard graphics module or with Alienware Graphics Amplifier.

ALIENWARE CRYO-TECH ADVANCED COOLING

Our thermal technology, Advanced Alienware Cryo-Tech v2.0, optimizes component cooling, which maximizes overall performance and keeps your laptop cool to the touch. The following are our innovative cooling solutions.

1. Dual-Intake, Dual-Exhaust Airflow Design

The Alienware Area-51m chassis prioritizes performance with a dual fan design that draws cool air from the lower and upper vents while removing exhausts from the rear and side vents for optimal ventilation of core components. 

(Intel® Core ™ i7-8700 with NVIDIA® GeForce RTX ™ 2060 configuration does not have side exhausts)

2. High Voltage Driving Fan

Fireproof liquid crystal polymer fans are built with 0.2mm blades, arm bearings, and 3-phase fan control to produce less friction and more efficient air circulation. 

ALIENWARE AREA-51M fans occupy an area of ​​95x105mm with thicknesses ranging from 19mm to 21.5mm and can drive more than 25 CFM in open-air conditions - something that is usually only seen on desktops.

3. Heat Heat-balancing Pipe

The dynamics of thermal activity on critical components such as GPU and CPU are intelligently released into various 8mm and 6mm copper-composite heat pipes that are dedicated and shared together. The high-end configuration carries 7 total heat pipes.

4. Pile of Copper Fins

The 51m area displays the best surface temperature in its class, largely due to thermal modules, including four 0.15mm copper fins. The heat is taken from the most important components to prioritize system performance and longevity.

5. Thermal Control

Cryo-Tech v2.0 ensures that 100% of the system's thermal GPU design power is enabled, while also ensuring CPU intensive gaming that benefits from high performance.

7. Quiet whispers

Area-51m cooling system is so strong, almost no sound is heard when engaging in daily tasks.

ICONIC DESIGN WITH MODERN EDGE

Alienware Area-51m raises the standard for innovative techniques with designs that change the game. The new visual ID is inspired by our initial industrial design, marking a return to shape when taking cues from our original roots.

The new futuristic design of the Area-51m reflects the diverse, growing nature of gamers everywhere, combining high contrast, performance-focused engineering with mixed bone lines, slanted parts, thick lighting, and thermal well-known.

1. Brave lighting

The latest evolution of AlienFX lighting features a striking light ring on the back of the system, highlighting system performance while maintaining the highest customization capabilities.

2. Narrow bezel

Area-51m features a dramatic reduction in screen boundaries thanks to its narrow bezel with three knuckle hinges. This reduces mass and maintains a strong connection to the base.

3. Honeycomb Design

This new thermal pattern has hexagonal ventilation for increased airflow with an increased rate of 47% over the previous design, allowing higher performance while keeping your system cool.

4. Premium shell

The unique magnesium alloy exoskeleton allows for increased rigidity while reducing overall chassis weight. This allows more room for high-performance components inside the machine.

5. Multiple color choices

Gamers can choose between a new futuristic look at Lunar Light or Dark Side of the Moon, a darker and more traditional appearance.
