When I bought my Aurora R9 earlier this year, I wanted 64 GB of RAM, but the sticker shock of the second 32 GB from Alienware was too much for me.  They use Kingston HyperX, I'll just get some later when the price goes down.  Well...After reading the horror stories of folks trying to add RAM in these Dell Community post, I was expecting a battle but tried to learn from what I read here.  So, the 32 GB of Kingston HyperX [NAME] comes out and in went 64 GB of Crucial Ballistix @ 3200. Well guess what, it was that easy...pulled the two Kingstons out and installed the four Crucial modules. Fired the computer up...it lit up fine...sat there a minute...gave me a screen that asked if I had monkeyed with the memory...I clicked on proceed and the next thing you know, I was in Windows.  I have shut down and powered up several times...no problems.  Wasn't that easy!  I do have to admit that I have Windows fast start up shut off, I do think that may be the root of some folks problems, as it doesn't really shut Windows off properly. Anyway, for what it's worth, with the upgrade I did of the power supply and this increase in RAM, I now have exactly the Alienware Aurora R9 that I wanted.  
Aurora R9, a pain free upgrade, nice for a change
