The new Alienware 17 is for consumers looking for a gaming notebook that prioritizes screen size and

gaming performance above all else. While on the road, users will experience up to 6.8 hours of battery life (as shown in Mobile Mark 2012).

The Alienware 17’s WLED-backlit FHD-resolution LCD screens deliver a

72% color gamut made possible with an IPS-based panel technology.

The base display includes an anti-glare finish and up to 300-nits. More

demanding users can select an optional TrueLifefinish and Touch

Technology as well. All Alienware 17’s are powered with full-voltage Intel

Core i7 quad-core processors and the latest NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics available.

Gamers looking for even more

performance and functionality, will be

able to connect the optional Alienware

Graphics Amplifier which allows for the latest AMD and NVIDIA desktop

graphics cards and when connected, Intel Core i7 CPU overclocking.

Designed with an aerospace-inspired carbon-fiber filled base that is rigid and stiff, the Alienware 17 is

also thinner and lighter than any previous 17-inch notebook Alienware has ever like the Alienware 15, it offers a full-sized

reinforced keyboard designed for uniform feedback while typing plus a numeric keypad and 9

programmable keys designed to help the gamer

feel at home, and in control, wherever they top cover incorporates anodized aluminum

and features the iconic Alien head. The Alienware

17 includes ten programmable AlienFX lighting

zones which can also be used by supported game titles.

The internal design also includes a copper heat sink to handle thermals without sacrificing

graphics performance, it is designed to enable the

maximum rated wattage to internal graphics

cards; that’s Full-Throttle gaming graphics.

General Information

What is the Alienware Graphics Amplifier?

Normally with notebooks, a user is limited to the graphics that is built into the

notebook –limiting upgrades. Now with Alienware’s new line of thin gaming

notebooks there is a new port –the Alienware Graphics Amplifier port. This port

connects to an external device that allows a user to add a standard, off-the-shelf,

industry standard desktop graphics card up to 375w to their Alienware 13, 15 or 17 notebook.

What does the Alienware Graphics Amplifier do?

When connected to a new Alienware 13, 15, or 17 notebook, the graphics card a

user installs into the Alienware Graphics Amplifier becomes the graphics card used

by the Alienware notebook. This external card powers the notebooks LCD and the

notebooks Mini-Display and HDMI ports just as if it were physically installed on the

notebook motherboard. In addition, users can plug displays directly into the graphics card installed in the Amplifier.

While these new notebooks offer the latest generation of high performance mobile

graphics from AMD and NVIDIA, the Alienware Graphics Amplifier allows customers

to have true desktop graphics performance in their new Alienware notebook today –and future proofs their purchase by allowing them to add new generations of

desktop graphics card in the coming years. What is the Alienware Graphics Amplifier port?

Displays Support

How many displays can I use with my Alienware 17?

The Alienware 17, without an Alienware Graphics Amplifier, can power up to three independent

displays, including its own LCD. The other two would be driven from the HDMI and mini-DP

outputs on the rear of the laptop. The output of each display can be customized within the driver.

How many displays can I use with my Alienware 17 when combined with an Alienware Graphics Amplifier?

The total number depends on what graphics card you have inside your Alienware Graphics

Amplifier. This total is the sum of the number of displays supported by the graphics card inside

the amplifier plus the three, natively supported, displays from your Alienware I experience NVIDIA Surround or AMD Eyefinitywith my Alienware 17 when combined with my Alienware Graphics Amplifier?

These features are enabled if the graphics card inside the Alienware Graphics Amplifier

supports them. If supported, the only displays that would be eligible would be the one’s

connected directly to the Alienware Graphics Amplifier. Please refer to NVIDIA or AMD’s

guidance for these technologies with single-GPU ability

What desktop GPUs are supported by the Alienware Graphics Amplifier?

The Alienware Graphics Amplifier port uses “raw/unmuxed/filtered” PCI Express

Gen3 lanes when connected to the Alienware 17 –that is a direct PCI Express

connection to a desktop graphics card. This type of connection is the same that is

used on desktop computers –direct PCI Express. This is the highest performance

connection available today. No other connection offers bandwidth of the Alienware

Graphics Amplifier not Thunderbolt?

Alienware customers expect the fastest possible performance available in any

product that carries the Alienware logo. The Alienware Graphics Amplifier port offers the highest performance connection to an external graphics card. Intel’s

Thunderbolt technology offers many benefits and has a growing ecosystem of external devices, but all of those devices share the same bandwidth.

The table below contains the list of cards known to be supported with the Alienware Graphics

Amplifier (as of November 25, 2014). Any new single graphics card that does not exceed a

375W power requirement, and does not exceed 10.5 inches in length, while occupying no more

than two slots will also be supported. Older graphics cards that do not appear on this list, are not supported.

Where can I get the drivers for the graphics card I intend to install in my Alienware Graphics Amplifier?

If your card is within the list shown on this page, you can get the driver from or the

graphics vendor’s website ( or ).

NVIDIA SLI, AMD Crossfire and 4K

Is NVIDIA SLI supported with an Alienware 17 when combined with an Alienware Graphics Amplifier including an NVIDIA graphics card?

No. When using an Alienware Graphics Amplifier, the internal graphics processor is

disabled. However, NVIDIA Optimus technology continues to function with the on-board Intel graphics processor and the GPU in the graphics amplifier. Is 4K gaming at 60Hz a possibility with my Alienware 17?

Yes. This type of experience may require an Alienware Graphics Amplifier, a high-end graphics card capable of supporting 4K gaming at 60Hz, and a display capable

of supporting 4K/60Hz. Your 4K display needs to be connected directly onto the Alienware Graphics Amplifier.

What is the maximum resolution capable with the Alienware Graphics Amplifier?

This would be determined by graphics card inside the amplifier.

NVIDIA and AMD?Yes.

What kind of warranty can I expect included with the Alienware Graphics Amplifier?The Alienware Graphics Amplifier comes with a standard 1-year warranty. When purchased

with an Alienware 13, 15, or 17 R2 laptop, your Alienware Graphics Amplifier will inherit the warranty that you select at the time of purchase.
