TAILORED TO GAMERS: Alienware Area-51 gaming laptops are engineered for maximum power, packed with innovation, and encased in otherworldly design. By fusing an advanced thermal strategy, increasing airflow and elevating power with Intel Ultra 9 275HX processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPUs, we’re bringing alien-class performance to the most passionate gamers.
Immersive 16″ QHD+ 240Hz Display: Dominate every match with a 16″ QHD+ (2560×1600) 240Hz panel featuring 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, NVIDIA G-SYNC, and Advanced Optimus for ultra-fluid visuals and minimal input latency
Advanced dynamic lighting: Ambient AlienFX lighting inspired by the aurora borealis takes on color and movement which reflects across surfaces to create an otherworldly experience. The masterful layering of materials marks a new level of technical ability and design sophistication.
Unleashed Performance with Up to 240W: Area-51 was intentionally designed to reach new performance horizons by enabling higher graphics and processor power limits. This Total Performance Power can reach up to 240W in our Alienware 16 Area-51. With more power provided to the silicon components, gamers can run their games on the highest settings, making this our most powerful 16″ gaming laptop yet.
Introducing the Cryo-Chamber: Area-51’s new Cryo-Chamber sits at the base of the laptop, directing air to the most critical core components. The Cryo-Chamber props up the laptop and introduces a much larger air intake, promoting increased airflow, and features a clear Gorilla Glass panel[8] providing a view of the AlienFX fans. This structure, combined with more copper and bigger fans than ever before, enable a higher power ceiling, up to 240W TPP, without raising acoustics.
