As graphics cards become stronger and monitors take on more pixels, the power required to fuel the machines also expands. States like California have had enough and, thanks to new regulations on power consumption in the state, Dell has stopped shipping its most powerful machines to parts out West.

As first spotted in The Register, customers trying to buy an Alienware gaming rig from Dell are met with a message in red. “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 cancelled.”
