Also introduced in Los Angeles was the Alienware Alpha compact desktop, described as the perfect Windows gaming system for virtually any room. The Alpha’s compact design comes fully upgraded with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 GPU with 4GB of GDDR5 memory. Also configurable with a new AMD Radeon graphics option, the new Alpha boasts better frame rates at higher resolutions and higher settings. The Alienware 13 OLED notebook and the Alienware Area-51 desktop were also launched at the Expo.
