Alienware: Alienware Area-51
built 635 days ago
Despite being able to utilize the fastest and most powerful components on the market, the Alienware Area-51 5300 has been engineered to remain amazingly quiet. Thanks in part to a copper-based heatsink solution using a series of heatpipes and a large radiator, even the hottest processors are able to be used. The addition of a nearly silent 92mm fan which can be throttled to keep temperatures under control ensures that you’ll focus on the system’s performance and not the noise it produces.
