computer settings. You can quickly access settings such as game-specific profiles and themes, lighting, macros, and audio that are

critical to the gaming experience.

or game.
AWCC supports the following features:

FX: Create and manage the AlienFX zones.

Fusion: Includes the ability to adjust game-specific Power Management, Sound Management, and Thermal Management features.

Peripheral Management: Enables peripherals to appear in and be managed in Alienware Command Center. Supports key

peripheral settings and associates with other functions such as profiles, macros, AlienFX, and game library.
