Following the Alienware Aurora gaming desktops launched in Brazil, A Dell announced, this Thursday (8), the arrival of new models of the notebook line Alienware Aurora. The new models, named Alienware 16X Aurora e Alienware 16 Aurora, are presented with a highly versatile proposal, seeking to serve not only the gamer audience, but also professionals and students who perform other activities that require high processing and graphics power. Find out the details below. 556r56

Alienware 16X Aurora is the most powerful model in the line, bringing the most robust specifications and the most complete set of technologies among the launches. The notebooks are designed to deliver high performance, being able to run games with high graphic quality and also run heavy professional software, such as video editing, 3D modeling and other activities.

Design 493g4d

The visual design of these notebooks adopts the brand's latest design language, known as AW30. In addition to aesthetics, the design incorporates structural changes that aim to give greater portability to the 16-inch equipment, with the Dell highlighting the use of materials such as metal alloy in the construction of the chassis.

New Visual Identity AW30 63p6t

The visual identity AW30 was first shown to the public during the CES 2025, characterized by more fluid contours and shapes considered ergonomic by the manufacturer applied to the external structure of the notebook. The Alienware reinforces that the construction of notebooks Aurora uses materials, including metal parts, to ensure greater durability and a sophisticated finish.

Portability 131o1w

The focus of the new design is on portability – Image: Dell

One of the focuses in the development of the line's design Aurora was portability. To make notebooks more compact, Alienware chose to eliminate the traditional recess or extension at the rear of the chassis, common in many gaming notebooks to accommodate larger ports and air vents.

With this change, the company claims that models with a 16-inch screen, such as the 16X Aurora, they become easier to carry in backpacks and suitcases, being more suitable for s who need to take the equipment to different places, whether for work, study or events.

Keyboard and Stealth Mode 2bz

The notebook keyboard Alienware 16X Aurora features customizable single-zone RGB backlighting, which means all keys share the same color setting and light effect, rather than being adjusted individually or across multiple zones.

Thinking about situations where flashy lighting may not be ideal, such as in more formal work or study environments, Alienware included a feature called “stealth mode“, which can be activated quickly by a command on the F2 key. When activated, all RGB lighting on the keyboard is turned off and the operating system automatically switches to a quieter performance profile, reducing the speed of the fans and, consequently, the noise generated by the device.

Cryo-Chamber Refrigeration System 1p4z23

Cooling system has been renewed – Image: Dell

In the new notebooks, the Alienware use the system Cryo-Chamber, a thermal solution designed to get the job done when it comes to powerful hardware in a compact chassis. And this without suffering from the so-called thermal throttling (when excessive heat forces the machine to reduce performance to avoid overheating).

O Cryo-Chamber combines multiple air intakes — including above the keyboard and in the vapor chamber structure itself — with four exhaust outlets positioned on the sides and rear. Internally, heat is dissipated by three copper heat pipes and two fans with ultra-thin blades, which force air through the heatsinks.

According to Alienware, the result is a system with greater airflow, quieter operation and for higher thermal loads, which is essential for maintaining performance in heavy games or demanding applications for long periods.

240Hz QHD+ display with G-Sync 5e6e5u

the notebooks Alienware 16X Aurora feature a 16” QHD+ screen with a 16:10 aspect ratio, offering more vertical space, great for productivity and gaming immersion. With a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels, a 240Hz refresh rate and a 3ms response time, it delivers sharp images and fluid movements, perfect for those who play FPS, racing or any game that requires quick reflexes.

Compatibility with G-SYNC eliminates those “stutters” and cuts in the image, and technology Advanced optimus aims to balance graphics performance and power savings. With 500 nits of brightness, 100% sRGB and technology ComfortView Plus, the screen is also ideal for content creators and long marathons of use without tiring your eyes.
