Can I upgrade my processor in the aurora r5?
I bought an Alienware Auorora r5 with a i3 6100 processor and I was wondering if I bought a i5 6600 if I could replace it the i3 with it.

Hi mazmodo123,
These are the upgrades you're system will support:
Intel® Core™ i5- 6400 Processor - Skylake-S (6MB Cache, 2.7 GHz)
Intel® Core™ i7- 6700 Processor - Skylake-S (8MB Cache, 3.4 GHz)
Intel® Core™ i7- 6700K Processor - Skylake-S (8MB Cache, 4.0 GHz)
Intel® Core™ i5-6600K Processor Skylake-S (6MB Cache, 3.9 GHz)
the Aurora R5 motherboard is not going to support the Kabylake processors (Intel 7th Gen) or higher.
