Alienware Area-51 ALX X2 with NVIDIA SLI Technology
Remember when Alienware announced they were working on a dual graphics card implementation based around dual PCI-Express slots? Following this came NVIDIA's announcement of SLI on their top GPU ranges. "How is this going to affect Alienware's plans?" many of us thought.
HEXUS has found something very interesting. Alienware are releasing a gaming PC using NVIDIA's SLI technology for the graphics.

Now, Alienware leverages a revolutionary approach to combining multiple GPUs in a single system to enable screaming, boundless performance. SLI, or Scalable Link Interface, is a high-performance technology that allows users to intelligently combine and scale graphics performance by having multiple NVIDIA GPUs in a single system. SLI works by intelligently scaling geometry and fill rate performance for two GPUs.
