Dell subsidiary Alienware is known for offering high-performance rigs of particular interest to way-too-serious gamers and PC enthusiasts: today, the company has rolled out a revision to its high-end Area-51 ALX desktop rig that goes where no PC has gone before: it features an Intel Core 2 Extreme processor overclocked to an "industry-first" 4 GHz.
"The performance packed into the Area-51 ALX desktop is flat-out unheard-of," says Alienware product marketing manager Marc Diana, in a statement. "Alienware has always been committed to building only the fastest, most powerful systems available, and that’s exactly what we’ve done with the new ALX."
