Video Description

The Alienware Area-51 with a 5090 is incredibly powerful, but is it worth the price? (⬆️product tagged at the top of the video description) We'll be taking you through our experience, breaking down the pricing, design and build quality, fan noise, thermals, internals, Overall Performance and Gaming and Creator benchmarks, Cinebench R23, 3D Mark Timespy, Geebench and much many more tests! I also completely tore this PC apart and replaced the Motherboard, CPU, Power Supply, GPU, and RAM to keep Dell honest and show how upgradeable it really is.. Pricing/Availability of all computers compared in this video REMEMBER! Check the actual product links tagged at the top of the video description ⬆️ first! 🔥(NEW!)
