The Core 2 Extreme processor, Intel’s highest performing desktop processor ever, offers enhanced multi-tasking responsiveness while delivering the most realistic gaming experience possible. The Core 2 Duo maximizes both performance and energy efficiency, running at cooler temperatures and providing a dramatic performance increase over previous single and dual-core Intel processors.
“Four years ago, Alienware embarked on revolutionizing the look of the desktop PC and succeeded with the launch of the first ever Alienware Full-Tower Case,†said Mark Vena, Vice President of Marketing at Alienware. “The next generation Alienware P2 Full-Tower Case answers our customers dreams and desires for an electrifying new design and user experience.â€
To further maximize the performance of its top desktop systems, Alienware has paired the Core 2 Extreme and Core 2 Duo processors with NVIDIA SLI technology.
