Area-51 Laptop
The Area-51 laptop enables gamers to bring their favorite titles with them no matter where they go. It comes in either 16” or 18” form factors. Both size options sport a 2560 x 1600 resolution and blazing-fast refresh rate: up to 240 Hz for the 16” display and 300 Hz for the 18” model—along with G-SYNC technology for a smooth and clear picture.
