Nice that you showed different games with different graphical settings, for people to get a good idea of what it's still capable of. Picked up one of these too and I gotta say these things are really nice and compact. Very surprisingly compact. I like how an Xbox One controller can easily be synced to it with Bluetooth and it fits nicely in the living room where it looks much smaller than any other consoles from the last decade and providing the versatility of a light gaming PC.
I remember these Steam machines and Alienware wasn't the only manufacturer. They were so overpriced for the specs. Another problem was that there was no standard spec. You could get anything from an I3 to an I7 with prices varying wildly.
Damn thats nice. I have a question for you. I have W11 on mines but not sure its active. I know im asking for a lot here but im trying to push UE5 on this, I have another main pc but I Like this Alienware Alpha r1
I have a thing for obscure mini form factor gaming PCs by OEMs during the early-to-mid 2010s

I just dusted mine off. Forza Horizon 4 plays at 1080p on Very Low settings and still gets 60fps. It's a beast!
