Alienware Area 51 Full Review! - Is it worth it?

The Alienware Area-51 with a 5090 is incredibly powerful, but is it worth the price? (link tagged in products list at top of description) We'll be taking you through our experience, breaking down the pricing, design and build quality, fan noise, thermals, internals, Overall Performance and Gaming and Creator benchmarks, Cinebench R23, 3D Mark Timespy, Geebench and much many more tests! I also completely tore this PC apart and replaced the Motherboard, CPU, Power Supply, GPU, and RAM to keep Dell honest and show how upgradeable it really is..
