Alienware Raises the PC Performance Bar

Friday, June 4, 2004 by koop | Discussion: WinCustomize News

Alienware's new ALX computers feature a liquid-cooling technology that allows every component to be over-clocked to the max. Coupled with Alienware's video array technology which was shown at E3, these are the fastest rigs available today.

Egads man! That is one SWEET box but $4,800?! Holy mackeral... I think I'd probably opt to pick up 6 eMachines and figure out some way of linking them up to create an UBER eMachine!!

Not too shabby. Don't like the grating on the top though.

The vent at the top is an integral part of the liquid cooling system.

Does something like this hold ATX type MB's, PSU's & conventional HD units? Very interesting indeed!

That is one big beast. To bad for about 2/3 the price you could build your own and still get surround speakers and a monitor.

The case is sweet But the cost is a rip-off. > I just put the finishing touches on almost the exact same system (more RAM, more HD, including 20" LCD) for half that price...

this is the kind of PC that computer users should match up against the G5... $4800 for that, $3000 for the fastest G5, and I bet the G5 will come out on top of a lot of the tests (about even in the end).
