Aproximately 59 million Americans spanning five states can't buy Dell's high-end Alienware brand desktop PCs "due to power consumption regulations."
When one goes to the Dell Alienware online configurator to buy an Aurora R12 gaming desktop, a special notice appears which reads:
This product cannot be shipped to the states of California, Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Vermont or Washington due to power consumption regulations adopted by those states. Any orders placed that are bound for those states will be canceled.

Order it in a neighbouring state and pick it up personally.
No bitcoin mining for you!
Next they will regulate thermostat settings and oven temps.
Gosh! Are any of those states pushing electric vehicles? Do they have enough electricity?
I bought one 3 years ago with the second best stats at the time.
My PC gets hot every time Microsoft does an upgrade.
CNN webpages have caused my computer to shut down due to overheating. Many newspaper webpages will cause my PC to get hot.
Illegal Alienware?
Or Undocumented Immigrantware?
2 years ago.
This is what killed the plasma tv.
Glad i got mine when i did..
I never even wanted an Alienware until now.
Because the Newsom regime is power hungry?
Dear California electricity customer:

Dell bought out Alienware?
You probably need to clean your fans.
Maybe they can still order the power-hungry parts seperately and install them?
Like a Ryzen 9 cpu and a hot graphics card...
Stupid Dell, just offer it with a stand-alone generator for powering the PC. Make it a bundle deal with Generac or another generator company. Make it with a non-standard plug to get around the state requirements! GOAL!
They truly are geniuses, aren’t they?...
One: all the wind farms you see.
Two: all the huge logging truck,chock full of logs,you see heading south...all with Quebec plates.
I must admit that the wind farms are rather pretty pretty...but it would appear that they don't meet the needs of the state.
Power hungry regulating the power hungry....wow
