The next generation of processing power has arrived with the new AMD Athlon™ 64 FX-57 processor, now
available on Alienware Aurora 7500 and Aurora ALX systems.
Extreme Gaming Experience
Aurora systems equipped with the AMD FX-57 processor deliver maximum detail and maximum performance to the most
demanding games. Large memory capacities and architectural performance improvements provide exceptional performance
and stunning, cinematic detail on games that require a large amount of memory for detailed textures,
‘rag-doll’ graphics and life-like characters. AMD FX-57-powered Aurora systems also enable quick and
efficient compiling, level editing, development of 3D models, and asset management for cutting-edge game development
and modification.
Dramatically Reduced Memory Latency
The FX-57 features an integrated DDR memory controller that provides a tremendous performance boost by directly
connecting the processor to the system memory. This new technology considerably reduces one of the most common
system bottlenecks, memory latency, to ensure that your Aurora system always delivers cutting-edge graphics
and jaw-dropping animations as they were meant to be seen.
High-Performance 32-Bit and 64-Bit Gaming
Aurora system featuring AMD FX-57 processors run both 32-bit and 64-bit games and software applications
at full speed on the same system. Experience the latest, high-demand games now in stunning detail while being
prepared for future technological advancements.
High-Speed HyperTransport Technology
Another important benefit to system performance comes from the FX-57’s HyperTransport™
technology. HyperTransport technology reduces system bottlenecks, increases system bandwidth, and reduces
latency. This allows applications to load faster and gives you the chance to multitask more efficiently on
your FX-57-powered Aurora system.
Virus Protection, Less Noise, Less Heat
Aurora system coupled with the FX-57 processor include further enhancements such as Enhanced Virus
Protection and Cool‘n’Quiet™ technology. Enhanced Virus Protection prevents the spread of
certain malicious viruses into your system, saving you from the potential cost and down-time that comes
from a virus attack. Meanwhile, Cool‘n’Quiet technology reduces the heat output of your system
and enables quieter operation to give you a more peaceful computing experience.
