The product photos don&#8217;t give it due justice; this is a <em>big <\/em>chassis that towers over the Aurora R16 model with superior build quality and a redesigned cooling system with even greater airflow. This is the only model that can be configured with the hot and power hungry GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card. The first wave of Area-51 systems featured Intel CPUs exclusively, with AMD X3D options only available since late November.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">This $4,850 config is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D CPU, GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, 32GB of DDR5-6400MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Additional system details include a 360mm all-in-one liquid cooling system for the CPU and a massive 1,500W 80Plus Platinum power supply that allows plenty of headroom for future upgrades.<\/p>\n<p>The Area-51 is much more imposing than the Aurora R16.<\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D is the best gaming CPU for most people<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D is considered to be one of the best gaming processors on the market and outperforms any Intel or AMD non-X3D chip in games thanks to AMD&#8217;s 3D-V-Cache technology. It only has eight cores, but that makes no difference in gaming since most games can&#8217;t utilize more than eight cores (if that) anyways. That&#8217;s why its gaming performance is <em>better<\/em> than the 9900X3D and negligibly close to the 9950X3D, even though both are considerably pricier.<\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">The RTX 5090 is the most powerful graphics card ever<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 has emerged as the most powerful consumer GPU on the market. Although with this generation Nvidia has prioritized software updates, AI features, and DLSS 4 technology to improve gameplay performance, the 5090 still boasts an impressive 25%-30% uplift over the RTX 4090 in hardware-based raster performance. If you want the absolute best performance for your gaming PC, there is literally no other option from any other brand.<\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">How to Follow IGN Deals Recommendations<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The IGN Deals team has over 30 years of combined experience finding the best discounts and preorders available online.
