Starting with the x series, we have the Alienware x15 R2 and x17 R2 updates, featuring the new 12th Gen Intel Alder Lake mobile chips, DDR5 memory, and Nvidia RTX thirty graphics.
The x15 R2 is going to come with either a three hundred-bit FHD display at 17 Hz or either a FHD at three hundred and sixty Hz, or a QHD four-hundred-bit display at 2 Hz, each with Nvidia G- Sync. The x4 R120 is going to have options for a three-hundred-bit XNUMX-bit FHD panel or three-hundred-sixty Hz, like a XNUMX-Hz XNUMX-bit XNUMXK panel.
All x15 R2 and x17 R2 configurations are also Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos certified.
The new Alienware x14 is the thinnest fourteen-inch gaming laptop to ever exist at just 0,57-inches. (fourteen, 5 mm), and it also has the latest Intel Alder Lake Core i7-12700H chip, with 16GB or 32GB LPDDR5, and Nvidia RTX three thousand fifty, RTX three thousand fifty Ti or RTX three thousand sixty graphics.
Base GPU power consumption is sixty W, but the RTX three thousand sixty configuration boosts it to eighty-five W with Dynamic Boost, so you don't have to sacrifice too much performance for thinness. It is also the first fourteen-inch laptop to support Nvidia G-Sync and advanced Optimus technology.
