“Can you guys clarify what RAM upgrades work for this model? Are there models from Kingston HyperX that don’t work, or do they all interchange in? I’m looking to get the 33gb update and want to check what works and what wouldn’t. Thanks!”

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Just to be clear, the ram CAN be upgraded and is NOT soldered on the motherboard. If you are referring to the video memory, THAT is soldered. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Alienware+17+R3+RAM+Replacement/77588
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can't upgrade the RAM after purchase, you need to configure the RAM to 16gb or 32GB prior purchase as the RAM is soldered to the board. 16gb is more than enough for AAA Games but if you're into content creation, might as well get the 32gb on the get go.
