The Alienware m18 R2, a 2024 upgrade, features Intel's 14th gen HX processors and Wi-Fi 7. Its premium build includes a bead-blasted anodized aluminum chassis, a full-sized keyboard with numpad, and an aggressive Cryo-Tech cooling system with a vapor chamber, quad heatpipes, and four exhaust fans.
This configuration is unmatched in power. It features an 18" 2560x1600 QHD+ 165Hz display, an Intel Core i9-14900HX CPU, a GeForce RTX 4090 (mobile) GPU, 32GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 2TB NVMe SSD. The 24-core, 32-thread i9-14900HX processor boasts a max turbo clock speed of 5.8GHz—currently the most powerful Intel mobile chip, surpassing even the new Intel Core Ultra 9 CPUs.
The RTX 4090 mobile GPU boasts a 165W TGP (150W + 15W dynamic boost), making it the most powerful mobile GPU available. It's roughly equivalent to a desktop RTX 3090, effortlessly handling any game at 2560x1600, 1920x1200, or on external higher-resolution monitors. It's the only mobile GPU we recommend for 4K gaming. This power demands a hefty 330W power brick.
For ultimate gaming performance without portability limitations, the RTX 4090 is the clear winner.
