Aurora R10, retail RAM compatibility list
The purpose of this thread is to keep a running list of Retail RAM that is compatible with the Aurora R10 Ryzen Desktops. That is one of Alienware's biggest shortcomings in selling "gaming" machines with upgradeable parts but then making it so hard to find compatible RAM. That is a frustration/discussion that has been had so many times it will not be repeated here. Instead, here is where I hope to keep an updated running post listing compatible retail RAM that Aurora R10 owners have confirmed work in their machines. In the coming days I will try to dig this information from the various RAM threads already created, but in the meantime if you are an Aurora R10 owner who has installed retail RAM, please post below your system specifications and the RAM you purchased (brand and model number or link to where you purchased would be best please) and I will add it to this list.

Keep in mind there's two different versions of the Aurora R10 (two different motherboard revisions). It may help to know if the person has v1 (3000 series CPU) or v2 (5000 series CPU).
