Solved!
Go to SolutionAurora R10, 5000 max memory voltage
Does anyone happen to know what the maximum memory voltage is for these systems?
I know most memory runs at 1.35v and any good motherboard should be able to go up to 1.5v or higher without a problem but since this is a custom board I had to ask.
I am thinking about testing out some memory that is 1.45v and wanted to make sure it's not an issue.
Thanks

Thanks for the reply.
I thought I saw a post about 1.4v but was 100% sure.
I wanted to test the Trident Z Neo 3600 Cl14 but since it requires 1.45 I may try the 16cl version once I have run my system long enough to know it's stable as is.

FYI...
* Go back to the top of the Alienware Desktops board
* Open, "FAQ Alienware Desktops"
* Open, "FAQ Aurora R10"It shows all that the tested/validated OEM memory run at 1.35V and 1.25V.

Anything special to get the cl14 to work. I have the cl16 3600 and haven't been able to get it to run past 2133mhz. It's my first alienware and I'm wondering if I'm missing something

Have you tried doing a custom configuration? I had the same issue with G.Skill Trident Neo 3600, the custom memory timing looked different than a normal pc so I didn't mess with it. OC1 & OC2 would not use the XMP profile.

I have not for the same reason. I was hoping I could at least get 3200mhz out of it but looking like I'll have to return it

The R10 i just got 2 weeks ago only goes up to 1.4v. I also was very disappointed as I had bought some b-die before it arrived.
Also the way they number the cl in the bios is in hexadecimal. Someone just told me about it today on these forums. So use a hexadecimal converter.
