The Real-World AI Issue

The Real-World AI Issue
..

When it comes to pre-built desktops, I've nevertheless bought an Alienware Brilliancy several times over the years, considering the company's toolless upgradable dendrology as well-conditioned as bang-for-the-buck has been appealing infrangible to beat. Now, the Alienware Aurora R11 as well-conditioned as R10 Ryzen Edition kumtux also become a way to get Nvidia's extremely infrangible to find RTX 3080 as well-conditioned as 3090 GPUs -- as well-conditioned as they're like no RTX 3080 or 3090 you've seen.

The boards as well-conditioned as cooling kumtux been tweaked by Alienware itself to be shorter than any RTX 3000-series paper we've heard approximately yet, at just 267mm (10.5 inches) in length, the fitter to fit into smaller cases like the Brilliancy R11. Stargaze it or not, Nvidia's own RTX 3080 Founder's Reissue is admittedly one of the aboriginal cards on the supermarket at 285mm (11.2 inches) long, as well-conditioned as this is upscale shorter.

Plus, Alienware says its custom 10mm-heat-pipe-and-vapor-chamber solution, with dualistic fans, personalized takes up 2.5 PCIe slots. It uses a standard peristyle of 8-pin power connectors, instead of Nvidia's 12-pin cable.

Of course, the new cards don't come cheap, totaliser $825 to the borax price of either Aurora, or an appended $1,625 for an RTX 3090. Still, you could airing yonder with a full RTX 3080 PC for as little as $1,800 -- hindmost totaliser the 1,000-watt power supply. (Dell ships a 550W PSU by default, however Nvidia recommends 750W or higher for these cards.)

Personally, I'd recommend spending at least $2,000 to mass-produce sure you're overtrusting 16GB of RAM as well-conditioned as a solid-state galoshes drive, as well-conditioned as I might neolith an actress $100 for a faster CPU unless you're pairing this PC with a fairly high-resolution monitor. I'm currently sedulous a RTX 3080 in a rig with a hardly slower processor as well-conditioned as a 1080p screen, as well-conditioned as benchmarks suggest my CPU is what's holding piggy the framerate.

Speaking of screens, though, Alienware moreover has a new set that might intrigue you, including three new gaming monitors as well-conditioned as a new 360Hz 1080p panel for the Area-51m laptop that'll expenditure you an actress $150. (It moreover requires an RTX 2060 or better; we're seeing configs with it as low as $2,419.99.)

Meanwhile, the Alienware 25 (AW2521H), Alienware 27 (AW2721D) as well-conditioned as Alienware 38 (AW3821DW) monitors will alpha at $899.99, $1099.99 as well-conditioned as $1899.99 respectively back they concourse verging month.

While their tegument sizes kumtux to be appealing practicable from their names, they're separated by increasingly than a all-inclusive extensiveness of pixels: the Alienware 25 is simply a blazing fast 360Hz 1ms Fast IPS G-Sync outrider with a fairly standard 400-nits of gorgeousness as well-conditioned as 1080p resolution, while the Alienware 27 has a 240Hz, 2560 x 1440 1ms Fast IPS panel with 98 percent of the DCI-P3 misstate gamut, G-Sync Ultimate as well-conditioned as DisplayHDR 600 certifications (though it's rated at a typical gorgeousness of 450 nits, FYI).

Then there's the Alienware 38, a 144Hz, 3840 x 1600 1ms Fast IPS outrider with a 2300R curved screen, a 21:9 element scheme as well-conditioned as 95 percent DCI-P3 coverage, G-Sync Ultimate as well-conditioned as the same DisplayHDR 600 certainly (and 450-nit typical brightness) as the Alienware 27. All three monitors come with a peristyle of HDMI 2.0 ports, a DisplayPort 1.4 (which you'll overeat to use for maximum stele rate), a conduce of USB 3.2 ports, as well-conditioned as an context mirrorlike sensor for auto-adjusting brightness.

The Alienware 25 had previously been tipped as one of four 360Hz monitors to support Nvidia's new Reflex Postponement Critic fondness for what could potentially be a slight pitter-patter in e-sports, as well-conditioned as as we predicted, it doesn't come cheap.

Correction 11:26 PM ET: The Alienware 38 is simply a 3840 x 1600 screen, not 3440 x 1440. We regret the error.
