Take the side of the case off and you're greeted by a very tidy machine, something that adds to the overall quality feel of the Alienware PCs. The hardware isn't bad either. The processor is a 3800+ Athlon 64 (single-core) and this has been paired with 1GB of PC3200 DDR memory but the heatsinks are Alienware branded. For some reason the latency of the memory wasn't set as low as it could have been, (CAS 2.5 rather than CAS 2.0), so there's an opportunity for a slight performance boost by tweaking this...

Peeling back the epidermis of the 7700, you'll find the kind of spec that a modern desktop gaming PC wouldn't be ashamed of. Central processing duties are handled by a 3.6GHz Intel Pentium 4, while 1GB of 533MHz DDRII memory is also thrown in for good measure - so far pretty much the same spec as the Rock Xtreme Ti. There's also a pair of matched 60GB 7,200rpm hard disks striped in a RAID 0 array for maximum performance.
