Alienware Command Center

Alienware Command Center is Dell's control software for Alienware and Dell gaming computers, designed for gamers who are looking for a little more to enhance their experience.

Features:

• Rated "E" for Everyone in the Microsoft Store
• Single Interface for games, lighting and system settings
• Free app from Dell
• Customizable Themes and AlienFX lighting

Brings game profiles, lighting, power, thermal and overclocking controls of an Alienware PC into a single interface.

While Alienware Command Center software may not appeal to everyone, it is aimed at owners of Alienware and Dell gaming devices of all ages and game skill levels, and it works only on supported hardware such as Area-51 R5/R6, Alienware 15 R4, Alienware 17 R5 and newer models.

Let's go through some of the options and features that may make this your choice to take your gaming experience to a new level.

The Library section collects your games, which can be added automatically or manually, sorted alphabetically, by last played or by last added, and marked as favorites. You can create a theme for each of your games so that lighting and system settings change when the game starts.

The FX (AlienFX) section lets you create lighting effects and animations for the computer, keyboard and mouse, and the interface itself offers a dark or light mode, a highlight color and particle effects.

If you purchased a device with Alienware Command Center already installed, you may have to locate it and make it more readily available as you need it. Once you have the app set up in an easily accessed location, the Fusion section gives you access to power management, audio settings, thermal and fan controls and overclocking profiles on supported models.

To finalize, Alienware Command Center is the tool to use if you own Alienware hardware and want to control lighting, performance and game profiles from one place. The dashboard brings these settings together, and the app is updated automatically through the Microsoft Store, where Dell offers it for free for 64-bit Windows 10 version 16299 or later. Game profiles let every title start with its own lighting, power and performance settings, and the same app also manages supported Alienware peripherals.
