Is there any documentation that shows the hardware limitations of the Alienware 18 laptop?
The standard build comes with 1600MHz RAM modules in either 4x4GB (16GB) or 4x8GB (32GB).
I have seen systems like this (after-market modified builds): http://www.amazon.com/Alienware-Overclocked-EXTREME-Kingston-Ultimate/dp/B00JCBXL5O
This baffles me as I am considering future upgrades but do not want to end up with hardware that is incompatible with my build as that would constitute an expensive mistake.
So,
- What DDR3L RAM modules can be used with the Alienware 18 laptop?
- What is the highest speed RAM that is supported by this model?
- Are there any considerations that need to be accounted for with regards to dual-channel, triple-channel or quad-channel set-ups (if any are supported)?
