Preview of the Alienware Area-51 Threadripper with an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X processor

They show the Alienware Area-51 Threadripper, which incorporates an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X processor, and Dell will be the only manufacturer to sell assembled Threadripper devices when these are released.

It seems obvious that AMD is heating up the atmosphere the days before the official presentation (in principle) of the AMD RX Vega during SIGGRAPH 2017. We have seen a lot of processors these days, motherboards, the Ryzen 3 and a delidded of a AMD Ryzen Threadripper, but if all this data, leaks and launches seem little to you, today the first team with an AMD Ryzen Threadripper, the Alienware Area-51 Threadripper, exclusive to Alienware when Threadripper finally hits the market. .

Dell has taken over the exclusivity of the Threadripper for factory assembled equipment and has shown it to the public. We see that this team carries an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X, which has sixteen cores and thirty-two processing threads, in addition, it has been shown with a benchmark. Despite the attractive exterior design, what interests us is the interior. We do not know whose motherboard it is from, but it does have an M.2 SSD and a GTX 1080 Ti Founder Edition, while the source is modular. The truth is that entirely leaves a lot to be desired especially the wiring, quite poor.

The highlight is the processor and the heatsink, which is an All-in-one liquid cooling and is flanked, the processor, by four RAM modules without a heat sink, what's more, all the motherboards we have seen had eight DDR4 DIMM socket, but this only has four, so it is a custom board by Dell and we assume it will be Quad Channel, supporting max 64GB. We must emphasize that this presentation is very good, although the one that would have interested us the most is the Area-51 that supposedly incorporated three AMD RX Vega graphics.
