As a gamer, you might consider a top-of-the-line Alienware computer to run your graphics applications while allowing you to multitask. After all, given the interactivity of today's top graphics-intense games, you need to communicate in real-time with teammates live via the Internet. For these gamers, the well-reputed Alienware brand offers its new Aurora 7500, which comes complete with plenty of bells and whistles to optimize the gaming experience. Let's look under the hood of the Alienware Aurora 7500 for a minute. It comes with four USB ports, plenty of room inside--including five 3.5 inch bays and a few other 5.25 inch bays. Of course, there's a lot of stuff inside the Aurora 7500, as well: a floppy drive, a DVD burner, a Sound Blaster Audigy 2.0 ZS card, FireWire ports, Ethernet ports, and of course, the critical 7800 GTX graphics cards. As might be expected from this list of equipment, the Aurora 7500 packs a nice punch. Drawbacks include the fact that it is--unsurprisingly--expensive, and that its one year warranty leaves a lot to be desired. The good news is that Aurora 7500 parts don't break easily. Moreover, the case is surprisingly quiet, given that so many fans must run to keep all that equipment under the hood cool. Serious gamers will likely want to supplement their Alienware Aurora 7500 with 5.1 Dolby Digital surround speakers for a complete experience. The fast processing and RAM of the Aurora 7500 should allow you to conduct business at the same time as you blast your enemies into oblivion. Also, Alienware also makes it easy to upgrade to better specs as newer parts migrate into the marketplace. |
