The Alienware Aurora features a meticulous, zero-fat design and is the first of its kind to offer tool-less upgrades to graphics cards, hard drives and memory. Inspired by the thermal ergonomics of the Area-51, the Aurora provides optimal air intake on the front and right panels and an exhaust fan on top for maximum airflow and cooling of internal components. The Aurora is Alienware’s smallest mid tower gaming desktop to offer both dual-graphics and liquid cooling.
Designed for VR, the new Aurora was engineered to exceed today’s virtual reality requirements. And with convenient tool-less access, it also offers easy upgradeability for the next wave of VR. With a VR-ready Alienware PC, you can be the first to experience the future of gaming. Alienware provides a range of systems to bring you the most immersive VR experience imaginable. Additionally, the Aurora offers Oculus or HTC Vive virtual reality configurations, for powerful, immersive VR experiences.
A uniquely designed PSU swing-arm keeps graphics and expansion cards safely secured and easy to upgrade – along with memory modules and with 5 storage drives – thanks to tool-less accessibility. Customizable AlienFX lighting gives the Aurora a distinct, dynamic look and its whisper-quiet operation allows you to get lost in the game without noisy distractions.
AlienFX uses 20 different colors to create 8000 unique themes to give your machine a more personalized look. Supported on over 130 titles, lighting zones can be customized to react to things like in game actions, powering on and off, and notifications by pulsing, morphing or simply holding a solid color. Once you’ve finished your theme, you can save and upload it to where you can share your custom creation with others and download any you find. And for times when you want a little less visual stimulation, AlienFX allows you to 'Go Dark' by disabling all lighting effects until you’re ready to turn them back on.
Reengineered to support dual 300W graphics cards (600w total graphics power), the Alienware Aurora now features more dedicated graphics power than any previous model. Ready to enable jaw-dropping 12K gameplay with support from NVIDIA Surround Technology, the Aurora is an intensely immersive experience that plunges you directly into the heart of the game. It’s not what serious gamers want in a midtower desktop – it’s what they demand.
AlienFX: Customize your lighting experience with AlienFX across three independent programmable lighting zones. With over 20 colors to choose, you can create up to 8 thousand color combos.
AlienFusion: The new Always Ready Mode puts your system in a state in between sleep and awake, allowing core programs to run in the background while the machine runs quietly and in a lower power mode.
AlienAdrenaline: Featuring customizable game and application options, a system performance optimizer and a performance monitoring tool, AlienAdrenaline provides users all the tools they need to keep one step ahead of the competition.
Thermal Controls: Change settings and monitor internal temperatures and speeds of certain fans within your PC using the Active Thermals module.
