MagyarDell Aurora R7 starts shipping today as the first desktop to offer six-core Coffee Lake-S
Announced a few weeks ago, the refreshed Alienware Aurora R7 starts shipping today in the United States. The Aurora R7 is equipped with six-core Intel 8th Gen Coffee Lake-S processors, in both i5 and i7 non-overclockable or overclockable variants. K-series processors will arrive from Alienware with a factory overclock applied; the i7-8700K will come at 4.6 GHz on all cores, while the i5-8600K will be set at 4.4 GHz on all cores.
While graphics options currently include AMD RX and Nvidia GTX cards, users will be able to configure their build with AMD RX Vega 64 in late 2017. The base power supply is 460 W with an optional 850 W model for systems using multiple GPUs. The external case measurements are 360 x 472 x 212 mm (14.1 x 18.6 x 8.4 inches) L x H x W.
