New for 2025: The Alienware Area-51 Chassis

Dell introduced the redesigned Alienware Area-51 at CES 2025. The new chassis retains a familiar look but features significant enhancements in aesthetics and cooling. The I/O panel has been moved to the top of the case, and the tempered glass side panel now extends across the entire side, eliminating the need for side panel vents. Air intakes are now strategically placed at the bottom and front of the case, promoting a positive airflow design that reduces dust accumulation inside. The internal components have been updated with a new motherboard, faster RAM, and a more powerful power supply to support the latest generation of CPUs and GPUs.

The RTX 5090 Is the Most Powerful Graphics Card Ever

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 is the ultimate consumer GPU, offering a 25%-30% performance boost over the RTX 4090 in terms of raw raster performance. It also comes with 32GB of faster GDDR7 VRAM, compared to the 4090's 24GB of GDDR6. Nvidia's focus on software updates, AI features, and DLSS 4 technology further enhances gameplay. However, finding the RTX 5090 at its retail price is challenging, with eBay listings ranging from $3,500 to $4,000.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 FE Review by Jackie Thomas

"The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 has taken the performance crown from the RTX 4090, but with a more modest improvement than previous generations. For traditional non-AI gaming, the uplift is one of the smallest we've seen recently. Yet, in games that leverage DLSS 4, the performance gains are significant, although 75% of the frames are generated using AI."
