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, a full-sized keyboard with numpad, and an aggressive Cryo-Tech cooling system with a vapor chamber, quad heatpipes, and four exhaust fans.

Performance is unparalleled. This laptop 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 i9-14900HX boasts 24 cores, 32 threads, and a 5.8GHz max turbo clock speed—currently the best Intel mobile chip, outperforming even the new Intel Core Ultra 9 CPUs. The RTX 4090 mobile GPU, with a 165W TGP (150W + 15W dynamic boost), is the most powerful mobile GPU available, roughly equivalent to a desktop RTX 3090. It effortlessly handles any game at 2560x1600, 1920x1200, or higher resolutions on external monitors. This is the only mobile GPU we recommend for 4K gaming. Note that such power demands a hefty 330W power brick.

For the ultimate portable gaming rig, the 4090 configuration is unbeatable.
