Alienware Introduces New Area-51 7500 Systems Featuring SLI Graphics and Dual-Core Processing

Posted on: Tuesday, 5 July 2005, 12:00 CDT

Latest Alienware Area-51 System Powered by NVIDIA SLI Dual-GPU Technology and Intel Dual-Core Processor Technology

Alienware(R), the leading manufacturer of high-performance desktop, notebook, media center, and professional systems, announced the availability of the new Alienware Area-51(R) 7500 desktop system, which features breakthrough advancements in graphics and processor technology. As the newest addition to the award-winning Area-51 line of systems, the Area-51 7500 is Alienware's first system to feature both NVIDIA(R) SLI(TM) technology and Intel dual-core technology.

Area-51 7500 systems powered by SLI technology utilize two NVIDIA-based graphics cards that work together to form a single image. This delivers a remarkable increase in performance at even the highest resolutions for graphics-rich games and applications. With SLI technology, Area-51 7500 systems provide up to twice the graphics performance of non-SLI systems.

Available with the powerful Intel Pentium(R) Processor Extreme Edition 840, the Area-51 7500 delivers cutting-edge performance for data-intensive applications by providing two processing cores on a single chip. Featuring Intel Hyper-Threading Technology, Area-51 7500 systems with dual-core processing support up to four processing threads at once to greatly enhance users' multitasking potential.

"Alienware was among the very first to offer SLI-powered systems and Intel dual-core-powered systems, and now we have brought those two extraordinary technologies together in creating the Area-51 7500," said Patrick Cooper, director of product management for Alienware. "The Area-51 7500 allows you to experience markedly increased levels of both processor and graphics performance in one system."

"NVIDIA SLI technology gives Area-51 7500 systems the ability to provide the absolute highest image quality for next-generation games and other graphics-heavy applications," said Drew Henry, General Manager of NVIDIA nForce Products. "The Area-51 7500 offers further evidence that the combination of NVIDIA and Alienware represents a powerful graphics solution."
