It's upgrade season for Dell's Alienware laptops, with the company's errorless sked of transportable gaming machines -- the Area-51m, the m17, and the m15 -- getting overhauled with updated specs, including Intel's new 10th Gen fries and Nvidia's latest GPUs.
For the top-of-the-line Area-51m (officially, the Alienware Area-51m R2, to distinguish itself from the first-generation Area-51m R1 model), that means Intel's anew announced desktop-class 10th Gen CPUs.
Specifically, Alienware is philanthropy four processor options on the Area-51m R2. There's the entry-level Corporeality i7-10700 (eight cores, 2.9GHz atrabilious clock acceleration with up to a 4.8GHz boosted speed) and the unpinned Corporeality i7-10700K, which boosts atrabilious clock acceleration to 3.8GHz and boosted acceleration up to 5.1GHz. For those who need plane increasingly power, there's the 10-core Corporeality i9-10900 (2.8GHz atrabilious acceleration and 5.2GHz boosted speed) successive with the unpinned Corporeality i9-10900K, Intel's most prepped 10th Gen desktop paring with a 3.7GHz atrabilious acceleration and 5.3GHz maximum boosted speed.
.. .Alienware is conjointly philanthropy new GPUs for the Area-51m R2, with a hand-picked betwixt Nvidia's GTX 1660 Ti (with 6GB of memory), an RTX 2060 (with 6GB of memory), an RTX 2070 Tomfool (with 8GB of memory), or an RTX 2080 Tomfool (also with 8GB of memory). There's conjointly the anew affixed AMD plurality of the AMD Radeon RX 5700M (with 8GB of memory).
Like the prevenient Area-51 R1, the new GPUs will once repeated be utilizing Dell's DGFF (Dell Cartoon Frame Factor) modules, which, in theory, allows them to be efficiently removed and upgraded like a desktop PC. Unfortunately, Dell has confirmed to The Border that the new GPUs being debuted on the Area-51m R2 won't be compatible with the prevenient R1 paradigmatic of the laptop. Dell is planning on selling the new R2 GPUs separately in upgrade kits this fall, except they'll only be stalwart to be used by R2 owners to upgrade their new laptops to a better GPU.
Alienware has conjointly improved on over-and-above aspects of the Area-51m R2. There are plane faster RAM options, with 2933MHz DDR4 configurations at up to 64GB (compared to 2400MHz on the old model) or up to 32GB of 3200MHz DDR4 XMP memory. There is conjointly a heart-stirring number of contrasted accumulator options, from NVMe M.2 PCIe SSDs (up to 2TB), corporate SSD and impliable bulldoze options, and a array of RAID configurations.
There's conjointly two new dissimilation options for the 17.3-inch display: a new 300Hz twain span and 3ms return time FHD option, and a 4K UHD console that offers 500 nits of effulgence and 100 percent Bole RGB colorant gamut. Those two options joining the previous two options: the atrabilious FHD 144Hz panel, and the FHD 144Hz that adds Nvidia's G-Sync.
The upgraded Area-51m R2 will be bettering on June 9th, starting at $3,049.99 for the atrabilious model. That's a considerable price increase on the entry-level Area-51m R1, which started at $1,950.
.. .The upgrades for the m15 R3 and m17 R3 models are increasingly straightforward. Both laptops are getting upgraded to Intel's 10th Gen H-series palmtop chips, with virtually identical debenture options boundlessness the clapboard (except for the dissimilation size).
Both laptops will opposition three choices of CPU: the quad-core i5-10300H, the six-core i7-10750H, and the 8-core i9-10980HK, with 8GB, 16GB, or 32GB of 2666MHz DDR4 RAM. Accumulator options range from 256GB to 2TB of PCIe M.2 SSD storage, with options for up to 4TB in a RAID0 debenture or 4.5TB in a RAID0 Plus setup.
There are new GPU options as well: Nvidia's GTX 1650 Ti, 1660 Ti, RTX 2060, RTX 2070, RTX 2070 Super, and RTX 2080 Super. Like the Area-51m R2, there's conjointly a single AMD option, the Radeon RX 5500M.
.. .Display options are agnate for the two laptops, with both philanthropy 144Hz FHD, 144Hz FHD with G-Sync, and 300Hz FHD options in their respective 15.6-inch and 17.3-inch sizes. There's conjointly a 4K UHD plurality with Tobii eye-tracking for both laptops: the m15 with a 400-nit OLED panel, while the m17's is unpretentiously a sought-after LCD (albeit with a brighter 500-nits of brightness).
The m15 R3 will alpha at $1,499.99 for the entry-level model, while the m17 R3 will alpha at $1,549.99. Both laptops will be bettering starting on May 21st.
Lastly, Dell is conjointly uprear its G-series sked of cheaper gaming laptops, the Dell G3 and G5. Both are 15-inch laptops and opposition the aforementioned two processor options: Intel's quad-core i5-10300H and six-core i7-10750H.
The cheaper G3 offers GTX 1650, 1650 Ti, 1660 Ti, and RTX 2060 GPU options, with 60Hz or 144Hz dissimilation options; the pricier G5 swaps the atrabilious GTX 1650 GPU for a increasingly prepped RTX 2070 with Max-Q, and adds a 300Hz dissimilation option. And while the G3 can only be configured with either 8GB or 16GB of RAM, the G5 supports up to 32GB.
The Dell G3 starts at $779.99, while the G5 starts at $829.99. Both will conjointly be bettering starting on May 21st.
