Playtime. Anytime
Play the latest games with graphics that rival reality. Play with players on console. Play with the peripherals that you love. When it comes to playing your way, Windows 11 makes it happen.
UNSTOPPABLE TODAY. SCALABLE TOMORROW.
Inspired by the Alienware community and our heritage, the powerful Area-51 returns as our most quiet, coolest running and highest performance desktop. The purposeful design combines innovative thermals, industry standard architecture and premium support features to put gamers first.

INNOVATIVE THERMAL ARCHITECTURE
Area-51 delivers our best thermal strategy yet, combining a airflow approach, larger diameter fans and expansive liquid cooling. This allows the most demanding components to flourish while keep the system exceptionally quiet. At full speed, processors can run 13% cooler. During marathon gaming, Area-51 can deliver 50% more processing power, with 2.4%, lower graphics temperatures, while running 45% quieter than any Alienware desktop from the past three years.

POSITIVE PRESSURE AIRFLOW
Our patent-pending pressurised architecture delivers 25% more airflow while minimising resistance for improved acoustics. Area-51 includes dual 140mm bottom fans, dual 180mm front fans, and three 120mm top fans.
All fans intake and blow cool air inward – from the front, top and bottom – creating positive air pressure that forces hot air out the back, cooling components efficiently.
SCALABLE CPU LIQUID COOLING
Using industry standard technology, Area-51 offers two all-in-one liquid cooling 360mm with a top mount that supports a 420mm heat exchanger.
Designed to be accessible and scalable with whisper-quiet operation, these cooling integrate AlienFX lighting to create visually striking lighting zones. The 360mm showcases an illuminated Alien head and light ring.
INDUSTRY STANDARD ATX MOTHERBOARD
The Alienware-exclusive motherboard features custom-designed heatsinks to optimise thermal management. Designed solely for Area-51, it supports 1500W ATX12VO Platinum-rated power supplies and features industry standard slots for easy system updates.


GAME CHANGING GRAPHICS
Step into the future of gaming and creation with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series, powered by NVIDIA Blackwell architecture. Designed to push boundaries, this GPU lineup delivers unparalleled AI performance and jaw-dropping graphics fidelity perfect for those who demand the extraordinary.

ALIENWARE’S FLAGSHIP AI-PC
CPU: Ensures everything runs smoothly and as expected; like controlling non-player characters, calculating realistic physics, translating a button press into an action, and triggering sound effects at the right time in the game.
NPU: Dedicated AI accelerators provide intelligent performance across gaming, creation and streaming apps where AI capabilities are possible.

INTENTIONAL AND FUNCTIONAL DESIGN
Every element of Area-51 was intentionally designed to create a supercharged, immersive experience in a gorgeous, streamlined, future-proof chassis.

ALIENFX BOARD
The interface for the Alienware Command Center software controls AlienFX lighting and system fans.

INTERNAL CABLE MANAGEMENT AND ADDITIONAL STORAGE
Isolated cable management channels keep cables organised and safe from interfering with airflow. This compartment also accommodates three additional storage drives.
DUST CONTROL AIR FILTERS
Three integrated filters removable and cleanable on the front, top and base air intakes enable airflow while minimising dust accumulation to keep the system performing at its best.

EASY ACCESS VIDEO GUIDES
