New Alienware desktop with Quad-Core Processor

 The new Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 processor will easily tackle numerous tasks simultaneously and will greatly improve gaming and multimedia capabilities on current computers. It is made up of four separate processing cores in a single package and provides 8MB of L2 cache.  

 “When a technology breaks crucial new ground the way the Core 2 Extreme
QX6700 has, customers can’t wait to get their hands on it and many of them are learning that Alienware is the preferred brand for the highest performance systems in the PC industry,” said Brian Joyce, Senior Vice President at Alienware.  “Intel’s quad-core technology benefits a wide
array of users by accelerating their productivity and enhancing their ability to manage digital content, laying the groundwork for emerging games and applications that take full advantage of the performance capacity of four processing cores.”

The Core 2 Extreme QX6700 processor also comes with a new Digital Thermal Sensor, which ensures the system fans spin only as fast as needed in order to minimise noise.

You can get your hands on an Area-51 7500 desktop with the new Quad-Core processor from just £2,104.
