If you think a gaming PC has to be in a big case and super expensive, the folks at Dell appear to ready to change that. Dell has just unveiled the Alienware X51. The Alienware X51 is one of the smallest gaming desktop PCs to hit the market and packs an amazing punch at a great price point starting at $699.

Even with the small size of the Alienware X51, you’ll be able to perform your own hard-drive, graphics, and memory upgrades quickly because Dell made sure to accommodate for “future upgrades” even given the small chassis.

The Dell Alienware X51 is available now on Dell.com and Alienware.com.
