I can say that it was well worth the money spent. If you want a fast machine and have the money in your budget, but dont have the time or skill to build a machine yourself, give Alienware a look. You wont be disappointed...

Performance, Unique design, Features
Large case / wasted space, Expensive
At the end of the day, this PC won't suit all gamers, but for those looking for a PC that performs incredibly well, has loads of room for expansion and a case design that'll stand out from the crowd, then you should definitely be considering the Area 51 f...
Slick, surprisingly practical design, Powerful, Cool and quiet,
Not value for money, Four 4GB RAM sticks rather than two 8GB, Included mouse and keyboard aren't great,
When you're looking at the Alienware Area 51 from a pure bang for buck perspective, it's not exactly good value. If you were to buy your own hardware and build a comparable machine yourself, you could easily save yourself at least AUD$700 depending on wh...
A unique design that really stands out; Water-cooled and overclocked so you don't have to; Spec'd to play pretty much any game for the next three years, at least; Wireless 802.11ac and Gigabit Ethernet included; Easy to open and very upgradeable by the ow

Eyecatching, Powerful, Design choice is actually practical
It's heavy, It's not cheap
The Alienware Area 51 might look bizarre, but the design has been thought out carefully and makes a lot of sense. Sure, it's heavy and perhaps too big for some rooms, but with some powerful, customisable specs and a look that'll certainly have visitors t...
Abstract: 8.6The Area 51- 7500 from the moment the huge black box shows up at the door, to the moment of opening the packaging which is well packed and protected by shock absorbing packing materials, gives off an air of a company that takes its building of a sy...
Powerful, Good cooling system, Very powerful, Good headphone lineout, Extremely powerful
Noisy, Disappointing internal structure and finish
The Alienware Area 51 is designed for gamers who want maximum power without having to get their hands dirty. This ultimate configuration costs an arm and leg, though, and unfortunately isn't flawless—it's excessively noisy. For many, it'll prove much chea...

Abstract: We rarely cover gaming rigs here at Pocket-lint, but there's something so iconic and, well, downright insane about the Alienware Area-51 that we couldn't resist. Or maybe the Greys have taken over our brains. Far from flying in from a land far away and m...
