The Alienware m18 R2, a 2024 upgrade, features Intel's 14th gen HX processors and Wi-Fi 7. Its premium build boasts a bead-blasted anodized aluminum chassis, full-sized keyboard with numpad, and a potent Cryo-Tech cooling system (vapor chamber, quad heatpipes, four exhaust fans).
Performance is unmatched. This configuration includes an 18" 2560x1600 QHD+ 165Hz display, Intel Core i9-14900HX CPU, GeForce RTX 4090 (mobile) GPU, 32GB DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 2TB NVMe SSD. The i9-14900HX boasts 24 cores, 32 threads, and a 5.8GHz max turbo clock speed—currently the most powerful Intel mobile chip, even outperforming some Intel Core Ultra 9 CPUs.
The RTX 4090 mobile GPU, with a 165W TGP (150W + 15W dynamic boost), is the market leader by a significant margin, roughly equivalent to a desktop RTX 3090. It effortlessly handles any game at 2560x1600 or 1920x1200, and even higher resolutions on external monitors. It's the only mobile GPU we recommend for 4K gaming. Note that this power demands a hefty 330W power brick.
If you need a primary gaming rig without sacrificing portability, the 4090 configuration is the ultimate choice.
