Welcome back to the channel guys today, we're going to be unboxing and reviewing the alienware aurora, r12, an epic computer deserves an epic unboxing.

So in honor of may the 4th out of all the gaming computers that I've reviewed this one is the first with the box design worth highlighting so subtle from far away, but up close.

You can see some cool reflective designs on all six sides of the box, really great first impression.

So we've got a simple basic power cable in this top box.

I didn't get a keyboard from dell, but stick around for the really cool keyboard and mouse that I got from amazon.

And there she is beautiful.

Wow, she's.

A beaut got some vents there on the top it's got beautiful graphics there on the side you got vents there on the other side.

Then on the front, we've got the alienware power button, 3 usb 3.2 ports and a usb 3.2 type c, then your headphone and microphone.

Jack surrounding all of this is a really cool ring that acts as another massive air intake for extra cooling and here's, the back with all the ports, our digital audio out ports, six usb 2.0 ports and an ethernet jack got a usb 3.2 and a usb 3.2 type c.

These two are gen 2s with powershare.

And these are regular usb 3.2s.

Then we've got your surround sound outputs for side, speakers, rear speakers and then your microphone your line out and your line in then we've got your power input, three display ports and an hdmi port.

And these two locks you'll need to flip up in order to move this.

When you open the box now let's open it up and take a look at the internals just need to use a phillips head screwdriver on this part.

Wow, look at that.

Here we've got our liquid cooled cpu and our ddr4.

Ram.

We just got 32 gigabytes, but you can fit up to 128 in there then down here is our geforce rtx, 3090 graphics, card let's, go ahead and take that out and take a look at it.

It's got some nice weight to it right here.

You got your gpu fans, then on the other side, your three display ports and an hdmi port.

And this my friends is an awesome gaming keyboard from amazon.

It has over 25 000 reviews I'm actually super excited to check this out red dragon gaming essentials, little standard usb.

You can see it looks pretty basic without any of the lights turned on, but let's see what this looks like in the dark.

You've got your big instruction booklet and then here's your mouse that is sleek.

Look at that that's a cool looking mouse, but that doesn't mean that it performs well so we'll see she's a beaut for reference, here's the alienware m17 r3.

You can see it just dwarfs it.

Man.

They look great together might just have to keep both all right.

The moment of truth, that's, pretty that's beautiful.

You can see my mouse is already glowing keyboards.

Glowing all cool that's kind of hard to see there.

We go.

Look at that.

That's, pretty cool here's.

What the mouse looks like that's.

Pretty second keyboard layout skip, except I'm really liking.

This keyboard feels pretty good, pretty decent key travel, choose privacy settings for your device.

Accept customize your device gaming.

Creativity, entertainment use your phone from your pc.

Remind me later back up your files with onedrive to pc right now.

No.

Thanks discover your next favorite game.

No, thanks.

Let cortana help.

You get things done.

Not now alienware updates.

United states, hi we're, getting everything ready for you new legendary experiences.

Let's get.

You started remind me later, my alienware, alienware, aurora, r12, alienware command center, adjust my lighting.

Then we've got some of our custom lighting settings.

I'm gonna go to all zones.

Let's, see what it looks like, ooh, red looks nice too.

Look at that purple in there.

Orange green.

You can adjust your brightness, ooh, I like that blue just a little brighter.

We got some themes here.

We can morph color.

One red, pink blue, see, it's pulsing.

Now that's pretty cool pulse.

Oh, look at that.

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

That's.

Pretty cool breathing.

Ooh, nice.

I like that alienware logo there on the side spectrum, oh, I bet that's.

Everything, oh man that looks so cool function.

Home.

Lets you cycle between the different colors and function up arrow and down arrow.

Lets you adjust the brightness of it function? Insert does a breathing spectrum.

That's, pretty cool.

Then function left and right arrow.

Lets you adjust the speed of whatever effect you're doing function n cycles through the spectrum, that's, pretty cool that looks really nice.

And for the super hardcore gamers that like to stand up this set to stand desk has been treating me really well for about six months now, love it.

Then I got logitech z130s for my speakers.

So I wasn't trying to get the best of the best speakers.

I just needed something for demonstration for this video.

Normally I just use headphones, but just got the cheap z130s.

If you like this video, if you could just give it a thumbs up, stay tuned.
