Alienware's attempt to tap the mainstream desktop market

Alienware has launched a new desktop for hard core gaming with the new Area-51 750i desktop. As the name suggests, the Area-51 750i desktop is built with a Nvidia 750i SLI motherboard chipset offering support for 45nm process-built quad-core processors. Alienware has tried to tap the mainstream desktop market with the price tag of the basic configuration desktop starting from $1049 (Rs. 52,450 approx.), and as one upgrades the components, the price shoots up.

All the recent DirectX 10-based games can be played on the Area-51 750i desktop. The basic configuration of Area-51 750i includes a 45nm process-built Intel Penryn architecture-based Core 2 Duo processor clocked at 3 GHz with a 6MB cache and a 1333MHz FSB; a 2GB DDR2 RAM, 800MHz; and 750 and 250GB hard disks for storage.

This basic system can be upgraded with hardcore components like Intel Core 2 Extreme (12MB cache, 1333MHz FSB) CPU, 3TB hard drives with RAID configs, 4x dual layer Blu-ray burner, 8GB DDR2 memory, two Radeon HD 4870 X2 with graphic cards of 2GB video memory each or two Nvidia GeForce GTX 280 graphics cards of 1GB each, and 1200W multi-GPU approved power supply.

The desktop could put a hole through your pocket, though it will bring high-end hard core gaming components to the desktop. The desktop runs on the 64bit Windows Vista Home Premium operating system and offers the 64bit Vista Ultimate as an option.
