Appears Switch’s rival game console – Power like PC, gaming like Mobile

​

Every year at CEScompanies all take turns to publicize their ideas technology different, some of which then actually become finished products, others remain “on paper”. Does the idea “Second screen” of the Alienware Which of the above will ultimately belong, no answer yet, but at least it’s an interesting product.

The above idea of ​​Alienware is not really groundbreaking because the idea of ​​​​a smartphone as a device for gaming has been around for a long time. But according to the current idea, the “second monitor” will sync with the Alienware control center – the utility installed in Alienware desktops and laptops, and provide CPU monitoring. , GPU and RAM in real time. This product also acts as the control center for the RGB lighting of Alienware devices.

However, the above idea did not attract the attention as expected. Many have commented that the “second monitor” has a very limited range of uses because it only works with Alienware computers (Dell’s G-series products may also be supported). In addition, the potential of the consumer market is also an issue because most gamers do not want to waste time looking at the device’s system stats when they are playing games. Although, “second monitor” will come in handy in some cases like monitoring how often the CPU and GPU are throttling a gaming device, thereby testing the performance of the cooler.

The good news is that Alienware is open to considering other use cases, should they decide to turn this idea into a real product: “While this is purely an exploratory idea, we’re looking to find a way to do this. to increase the popularity of the software in the future, and open to feedback from the community on new features they want to include in the product.We think this idea will attract the interest of the community. mobile gamers who want to keep an eye on their device’s performance but don’t have the ability to do so while logged in to the game.”

The idea of ​​adding maps, HUDs, and other in-game content to mobile devices is still worth considering. Alienware is alluding to that, that being able to track kills, manage inventory and more on the second screen to save space on the main screen will be very beneficial for gamers. Basically, the above setup is similar to building a PC with two screens, however, the size of the two mobile screens will be much smaller.​
