Alienware counters HP's Blackbird with a quad-GPU monster

Today, Dell division Alienware announced its Area-51 ALX CrossFireX gaming desktop, a pricey quad GPU gaming PC that utilizes so many bleeding edge hardware features that it actually requires Windows Vista.

So much for the theory that frequency is dead in computing. One of the big selling points for Alienware's new Area-51 ALX CFX system, which premiered just today and is available now, is that customers should feel free to experiment with the 4.0 GHz barrier.

Promoting it as "the world's fastest gaming desktop," Alienware offers a base MSRP of $5,149, although with custom configuration, you can drive the final price above $8,000 easily.

Do I need to even comment on that!
