gallo martinez No, it only has room for up to 3-way SLI but quad-SLI is a waste anyway. You don't get anywhere near the scaling in performance of 4 cards.

This review was released back in 2015, well before dual M.2 supporting motherboards were released.

AlienWare Area 51 desktop
I bought an Area 51 desktop with this configuration from The MicroCenter for (their regular price of) $1999.99. It has been absolutely stable – no issues of any kind. I’m not a gamer – just wanted a high-end, fast, reliable, desktop. Configuration overview:
Intel Core i7-5820K Processor 3.3GHz
Microsoft Windows 10 Home 64-bit
16GB DDR4-2133 RAM
128GB Solid State Drive
2TB – 7200RPM Hard Drive
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4GB GDDR5
Slot-Loading Dual Layer DVD Burner
Media Card Reader
10/100/1000 Network
Intel 7260 802.11ac 2x2 Wireless
Bluetooth 4.0Intel Core i7
Some highlights:
- The instructions don’t mention it, but be sure to remove the shipping screw – a tiny Phillips between the two panel latches at the very top, rear. After that, simply pull up on the left or right latch to remove that side panel.
- Latest model processor, an Intel i7-5820K (6-cores, 15MB Cache, over-clocked up to 3.8 GHz w/ Turbo Boost). The CPU is liquid cooled and has its own mini-radiator – shown on the attached customer image. This model boots from a cold start, ready to go, in about 15 seconds.
- NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX™ 970 4GB GDDR5 video card. This high-end card is the 8th fastest on the market as of this writing, of thousands made – according to PassMark Software.
- Comes installed with Windows 10 Home 64bit. I’m a big Windows 7 fan, but chose Windows 10 for the claimed better security and because it will be supported at least five years longer than Windows 7:
........................End of Mainstream Support..........End of Extended Support
Windows 7.....January 13, 2015...........................January 14, 2020
Windows 10...October 13, 2020...........................October 14, 2025
- The 850 watt power supply has significantly more capacity than what comes in than most desktops. E.g., the Dell XPS 8900 models I bought have 450 watt power supplies. 850 watts can handle a second (but not a 3rd) GeForce® GTX™ 970 along with another SSD and additional hard drives. You’ll need the 1500 watt power supply for a three video card system.
- The power supply is the modular type, with unused cable sockets for additional devices. However, no spare power cables are included for additional left side components such as another video card or a USB port expansion card. Dell sells additional Area 51 power cables.
- 16GB Quad Channel DDR4 at 2133MHz is very good, but instead of four 4GB cards, Dell should have installed two 8GB cards and left two empty slots. That way, memory upgrades wouldn’t mean discarding one or two 4GB cards.
- Although I wanted a solid state C drive, the 120GB SSD in a machine of this caliber is a dumb choice, capacity and price wise. I.e., as of this writing, Amazon charges $67 for a Samsung 850 EVO 120GB, and only $10 more for the 250GB SSD. I plan on replacing this machine’s C drive with a larger SSD (Samsung includes cloning software with their SSDs) – and use the 120GB SSD as an external backup (clone) for our laptop.
- One reason I selected an Area 51 desktop is the fabulous chassis (case). It’s brilliantly designed with deep-recessed hand grips at each of the three “corners” to carry it. Each side panel pops off with one latch release, and reattaches easily. All user replaceable components are easily accessible and air flow / cooling is top notch. SSDs and hard drives are on the right side of the chassis, physically separated from the heat generating mother-board, GPUs, and power supply on the left side. You can fiddle with “rear” cable connections from the front of the chassis and peering just over the top.
- Within the chassis’ right side, power and SATA cables are included for a second SSD and two more hard drives. Couldn’t be easier to add those...
- This machine is heavy; just over 60 pounds. The shipping box is huge. The chassis is 11" wide, 24" deep, and 22" high. It took two of us to get it to our 2nd floor. It’s about twice as large, volume-wise, as Dell’s 8700 or 8900 models, which are light weight by comparison – any nudge from your foot or knee can slide those. The Area 51 stays put.
- You can customize an Area 51 desktop if ordering from the Dell site (memory, drives, video cards, and much more). If you order an Area 51 with two (or three) video cards, all necessary power & SATA cables are, of course included. This model is an excellent compromise, with it’s fast processor, high end video card, decent memory, and strong power supply.
- The only negative other than the small SSD is charging for the inclusion of an average looking keyboard and mouse. I’d think that most anyone buying a desktop in this price range would already own better ones, or would prefer choosing their favorite from among the thousands on Amazon and elsewhere. Dropping the keyboard and mouse and instead, including a 250+ GB SSD for the same price is a no-brainer.
- Most of my legacy software works fine under Windows 10. But not everything. E.g., Corel WordPerfect (X5) won’t load in Windows 10, so I had to get the newest (X7) version. Another example is Windows Explorer not recognizing lower level folders from a Nikon D7000 camera, requiring another program to be used for that purpose; and – our Canon MF 6700 wasn’t usable since there are no Windows 10 drivers for that printer/scanner. The point is, if you’re new to Windows 10, don’t expect 100% software compatibility with all older hardware/software.
All in all, this is a great PC.

I think my panel release levers broke, when I pull them up neither side budges or moves, even with force.
Any suggestions
