| Magnesium Alloy Chassis |
 |
 |
Alienware considers durability and portability two critical factors in the design of any new mobile system. To strike
a perfect balance between these two elements, the Area-51m is designed around a magnesium alloy internal chassis. This highly specialized
alloy ensures strength enough to support all of the necessary internal components – yet is incredibly light in weight, making
it perfect for easy portability and long-lasting durability.

High-performance systems demand high-performance cooling and Mobile systems are no exception. Alienware Systems all
sport cooling solutions designed specifically for intense applications and high-performance components. All systems come standard with
a dedicated and tested CPU cooling system. On top of that, the Area-51m has a dedicated Graphics card cooling solution and fan. It
is designed to maintain the video module cool and allow it to run at its highest performance. |

| Power Supply |
|
 |
One of the most critical components in a high-performance PC is its power supply unit. High-speed processors, memories,
graphics cards, hard drives, and other critical system components all must be supplied with a reliable source of power in order to
maintain maximum performance and reliability. Alienware mobile systems feature auto-switch AC adapters ranging from an efficient 70
Watts for Sentia systems to a powerful 160 Watts for the Area-51m. |
|
| Memory |
|
 |
Responsible for storing, arranging, and delivering vast amounts of critical data with extreme speed and accuracy, system
memory is integral to the performance and reliability of a computer's processing subsystem; the slightest flaw can lead to data loss
or corruption and even system failures. Alienware qualifies only the highest-quality memories to ensure every Alienware system operates
with extraordinary performance and reliability. |
|
| Graphics |
|
 |
Featuring the very latest in graphics technology, the Area-51m is the Original Ultimate Mobile Gaming System. With up
to 128 megabytes of dedicated DDR memory and full hardware support for the latest DirectX® 9.0 and OpenGL® graphics, the Area-51m
is the notebook of choice for taking the next generation of cutting edge 3D games on the road. |
|
| Drivers |
|
 |
The fastest hardware in the world is nothing without the right software to make it all work. Device drivers for components
such as core logic, video cards, and sound cards interface directly with these hardware devices and are therefore vital to a system’s
performance and stability – which is exactly why Alienware systems are supported with only the latest Alienware-validated device
drivers. |
