Like the best of both worlds? Need to game hard but need to go pro with professional graphics at work? I take a look at the Alienware Graphics Amplifier, an external graphics box to see if it can double up as a workstation converter to turn your gaming notebook into a professional powerhouse using either a Quadro or FirePro GPU.

professional applications that can use multiple GPUs could use the Graphics Amplifier GPU as well as and the onboard GPU for processing?
Most detailed review I’ve seen specifically pointing out the noise, GPU clearance issues, and well I’m still in the middle of the video so I’ll let you know what else.
holy fuck the noise.
3:48 laughed so hard xD
Greets from Expert Elite – México.
Top notch Review 😀
Not in bed yet ?
Ah , you are one hour behind in the UK
So the performance was worse with the graphic amp? You showed all those other cards that wouldnt fit right, did you try them. Seems to me that you may be losing performance with the proprietary amp connection, but no way to verify unless you tested the card against a known baseline. I sure wouldn’t want to buy either a firepro or GPU amp based on your results. Besides that, I missed the part where you tell us you need the onboard graphics card to provide the connection to the amp. what a waste.
whats the music in the background
The b roll looks awesome 😀
10/10 production :D:D
LOL I have a alienware aurora R5 power supply fan it’s so noisy…
This is one of the only other Alienware 17 owners. I have one. They are awesome.
now am thinking of getting the graphics amplifier for my alienware 13
best review of this graphics amplifier. I want it for gaming with the same laptop. I understand this channel is for autodesk, do you know if this will help me with adobe PP ? I decode 4k video . thanks
But the AGA can be more upgrade able since its quite a big box (yeah you can swap everything in the box but as it is the AGA is pretty good (except psu and fan roaring sound) but other then that it’s good (the psu Power cord area is kinda small so the psu upgrade is a bit of a pain without modifying the plastic or the psu itself
It’s not that loud even under load but whatever.
Please,a question
Hi! I want to put MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X in my Alienware amplifier. I’ve seen in the video that it won’t be possible to close the lid if i install this graphic card. Is it certain that it will still function adequately even if the lid is not closed properly? Thanks a lot!
what is the track’s name played at 03:52?
Wow so mush noise 🙁
Please can you confirm that drivers are available and you can install both Quadro and FirePro inside the graphic amplifier?
You should definitely throw in ArchiCAD and Revit for us architects, we really need someone doing this test and comparisons with or software; I’m not saying that you should do this with all of your videos, but when ever you showcase a rare and powerful card like this AMD or a Titan, etc… It would be much appreciated and you would certainly expand your viewer base.
Wonderful work.
Thank you.
couldn’t I hookup an egpu to my express card slot on my precision?
poor kitty!
Can you go into more depth with the amplifier? Thx , I love the content btw subscribed
I can’t get my quadro 6000 to work
review the core with same FirePro , comparison??
Razer do a similar thing with the core stealth pretty sure that came to market first.
I am looking to buy a new laptop for CAD should I buy an Alienware over a Precision, Zbook, or Thinkpad. Thanks, love your videos keep up the good work!
