Alienware Andromeda X51 Preview | Total Revue

The X51 is a small factor form PC which manages to fit the latest gaming hardware into a case not much bigger than an Xbox 360. It was released earlier this year by Alienware who promoted it as the Alienware system built after listening to its customers. The idea behind the X51 is to make PC gaming more accessible to the masses by creating an affordable compact PC gaming system that is powerful enough to run PC games on your living room HD TV.

That is one badass looking rig right there. Look pretty nice perched next to my ps3.

andibandit4608d ago

too bad your PS3 is crying "Help, X51 is owning me in every way possible"

NoFanboyRequired4608d ago

Exactly. Dont see how anyone could buy these overpriced things. Alienware is worse than apple when it comes to milking imo.

Close but no cigar.

Go configure a "gaming" computer on crapple's website.

It is absolutely atrocious to charge 1,000 dollars for a 512gb SSD. When you can get a better one than what you will get from crapple for 4-500 dollars.

One 3.33GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon processor
8GB (4X2GB)
2TB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s hard drive
512GB solid-state drive
Two ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB
18x SuperDrive
Apple Magic Mouse + Magic Trackpad
Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad (English) & User's Guide

Those specs on crapple's website came to 4,643. And that is before adding a monitor or anything extra.

I could build 3 or 4 PC's with similar specs for that price.

GREW50ME4608d ago

Build your own or don't even bother.

sak5004608d ago

Shame with the asking price one can DIY 3 PCS of same specs.

It’s far from a Switch killer. People will always buy Nintendo based on brand loyalty and for their amazing exclusives.

indysurfn1942d ago

I agree!
"super premium" is not tech specs. They have no exclusive games they are going to have to at least have SUPER TECH! And they will still not touch SWITCH.

CaptainHenry9161942d ago

I feel that way with Nintendo and Sony

Kribwalker1942d ago

except when they get that switch emulator running on it. Then that thing could be wicked

spicelicka1941d ago

It would make it better than the Switch, but people still wouldn't buy it as much as the switch simply because of brand power and convenience.

2pacalypsenow1942d ago (Edited 1942d ago )

Exclusives which you can play on PC with an emulator. Js

Shiken1941d ago

One, you still have to buy the game to play it legally on an emulator...and you have to rip the game yourself.

Two, there is no Switch emulator at this point in time...JS

King_Noctis1941d ago

And you think this little thing have enough juice to fully emulate a Switch game?

Maybe you should wake up.

2pacalypsenow1941d ago

I don’t know it’s not out yet.

King_Noctis1941d ago (Edited 1941d ago )

“ I don’t know it’s not out yet.”

Why do you need to wait until it is out in order to realize that if a big desktop-sized PC struggle to emulate the Switch, then how can a tablet-sized PC like this one able to achieve that?

CosmicTurtle1941d ago

There is a Switch emulator called Yuzu.

Shiken1941d ago

@comic

Yuzu is experimental and most games either will not boot, or they run like garbage. Why even bother naming it when it runs would run worse than supporting the devs for their hard work?

Sounds like you are just looking for ways to claim you do not need a Switch to play major Switch games...but a quick google search will just out you quicker than you can type a response.

2pacalypsenow1941d ago

@Shiken

Actually majority of the switch’s mayor games are playable on the Wii U.

Shiken1938d ago (Edited 1938d ago )

@2pacalypsenow

That is false. I assure you that games like Mario Odyssey, Link's Awakening remake, Luigi's Mansion 3, Fire Emblem Three Houses, Astral Chain, Pokemon Sw/Sh, Smash Ultimate, BotW2 (coming soon), Splatoon 2, Xenonlade 2, Xenoblade Torna, etc etc etc are not playable on WiiU.

Just because the WiiU has lost its value to most of their under appreciated games getting a second chance on Switch, that does not mean that Switch is not still pumping out its own exclusives at an even greater number as well.

But like I said...downplay...and we all know you do a lot of it lol.

bujasem_891941d ago

Dare I say... Emulation? If I own it, why can't I play it in any form I like?

Shiken1938d ago

Because there is no reliable Switch emulator at this time.

m2stech1941d ago

How about Yuzu switch emulator installed on it?

Calling it a Switch rival would be more accurate.

isarai1942d ago

"Switch Killer" lol

People buy the switch for Nintendo's exclusives, so unless they can suddenly hault Nintendo from making games it's really not even gonna affect the Switch in the least. That said the product does look dope an i'd love to get one for emulation aswell as PC games.

Bhuahahaha1942d ago

lol when someone says its a "(insert game/device) killer" it will always end in failure

Vits1942d ago

That is what I call a sensationalist title.

The UFO is not even a real product, let alone a Switch killer.... It's just a concept, one of many that Dell has brought to the CES 2020. It might eventually go into production if they find a market for it. But as many other concepts it might as well just stay a concept.
