Alienware m17 R5: the ultimate AMD Advantage Laptop
For those who value raw power, the Alienware m17
R5 is the laptop for you. It claims the throne as the
world's most powerful 17" AMD Advantage laptop, delivering truly
remarkable performance.
The m17 R5 is forged from a partnership with AMD that features
AMD Ryzen™ 6000 series processors, AMD Radeon™ RX 6000 series
graphics, and new AMD Smart Technologies. Today's update welcomes
the new AMD Radeon™ RX 6850M XT 12GB
GDDR6 GPU to the configuration lineup.
Here's a refresher on all the AMD Smart
Technologies we proudly offer with Alienware m17 R5 on
select configurations:
- AMD SmartShift Max: Dynamic power shifting
between a Radeon GPU and APU boosts performance for gaming,
rendering and content creation.
- AMD SmartAccess Graphics: Improve frame rates,
reduce latency and save battery by enabling discrete Radeon
graphics or Ryzen graphics to handle rendering and presentation
while maintaining AMD FreeSync™. Only available with select
models.ii
- AMD Smart Access Memory: Get an extra edge when
your Ryzen processors are able to harness the full potential of the
Radeon graphics card memory.
- AMD FreeSync™ Premium: Put an end to choppy
gameplay with fluid, artifact-free performance at virtually any
framerate. This adaptive sync technology matches the refresh rate
of your graphics and your display for buttery smooth gameplay.
The Alienware m17 R5 delivers extreme speeds and response times
so you can play your favorite titles with smooth gameplay, it will
feel like the game's become an extension of your senses. The m17 R5
is also stacked with Alienware Cryo-tech cooling technology with a
built-in graphics vapor chamberiii to sustain
high-performance when playing graphically intensive games.
480Hz displays make soft landing in Alienware m17 R5 and x17
R2
Now available with Alienware m17 R5 and Alienware
x17 R2 gaming laptops, gamers will make first contact with
a brand-new display technology. Our FHD (1920 x 1080) 480Hz 3ms
panels bring a multitude of gameplay benefits including:
animation smoothness for easier target tracking, ghosting reduction
which minimizes distracting effects, and lower system latency
making it easier for you to spot other players earlier.
While any gamer can benefit from the smooth frame rates this
480Hz panel provides, competitive gamers that play fast paced games
will notice the advantages of the high-refresh rates immediately.
These panels are enabled for both, AMD FreeSync™ and NVIDIA G-SYNC
with Advanced Optimus. Within this current graphics generation, any
gamer who plays popular esports game titles can unlock the full
advantages of 480Hz displays.
Our first 480Hz is purpose built with premium experiences such
as:
- Advanced Optimus: Automatically controls the
built-in hardware MUX to disable the iGPU and use the system's more
powerful dGPU, which gives additional control over game performance
and battery life.
- ComfortView Plus: A built-in, always-on,
hardware-based low blue light solution that doesn't compromise
true-to-life color accuracy.
- Dolby Vision: Brings optimal color profiles and
contrast that goes well beyond the capabilities of traditional high
dynamic range (HDR).
Alternatively, we offer UHD (3840 x 2160) 120Hz 3ms displays on
m17 R5 and x17 R2 laptops for those more interested in a
higher-resolution panel over faster refresh rates.
Our first-ever 16-inch gaming panel in a 15-inch chassis,
introducing the Dell G16
The new Dell G16 is designed for PC gamers who need the
essential gaming features and want mobility and performance without
sacrificing screen size.
The G16 offers a sleek gaming-inspired design with a smooth,
modern aluminum cover available in Obsidian Black with an
iridescent logo. The laptop also features a 16-inch panel in a
15-inch chassis with a 16:10 aspect ratio to provide gamers 11%
more screen than the G15's 16:9 display, netting a larger gaming
and cinematic experience. The larger viewing area is complimented
by 3-sided narrow bezels and fitted with a QHD+ (2560x1600) 165Hz
display that hits a sweet spot between high resolution and high
frame rates. Advanced Optimus allows the G16 to switch between the
integrated GPU and the discrete NVIDIA RTX graphics card as needed,
which can help improve battery life and deliver a smooth gaming
experience.
Under the hood, the G16 is equipped with Alienware-inspired
thermals such as copper pipes, four vents and ultra-thin fan blades
to optimize cooling and maximize airflow for consistent high-end
gaming performance. It's armed with a 12th Gen Intel®
Core™ i7-12700H 14-core processor and up to a NVIDIA®
GeForce® RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU. To ensure your machine
is running optimally during intense raids and boss encounters,
activate the "Game Shift" key in the F9 position which instantly
cranks up cooling performance.
G16 takes a few other pages from the Alienware playbook
including:
- Alienware Command Center: Provides easy access to game
settings, peripheral lighting settings, Dolby Audio, and a game
library for seamless customization.
- New Keyboard options including CherryMX: Option for
one zone, per-key RGB, or CherryMX ultra-low profile mechanical
keyboard, all options full-sized with completely customizable
layouts.
