CNET Networks site TechRepublic runs a regular series called "Cracking Open" in which it takes a look inside a variety of gadgets. CNET News is publishing this excerpt of a photo gallery that examines the guts of this $8,000 Alienware Area 51 ALX desktop.
The Area 51 ALX systems from Alienware are the company's flagship desktop computers. Our review unit came with three Nvidia GeForce 280 GTX video cards, each carrying 1GB of dedicated GPU RAM. We had to crack it open to see what a case full of video cards actually looks like.
