I know the standard answer from Dell will be that 'it isn't supported'--but does any know (or has anyone configured) the Alienware Area 51-R2 to run the DDR4 faster than 2133 MHz?

The BIOS has a DRAM setting for frequencies up to 3200mhz, but when I install RAM that is certified to run at 3200mhz at 1.35v, the computer never boots back to POST and I need to reset the CMOS.

I'm running a 5960x processor and the memory is Intel XMP certified, so I'm surprised that Dell would limit the speed to 2133 MHz, especially on a machine that is supposed to be for enthusiasts.

If anyone out there has installed or configured faster RAM, I'd greatly appreciate your insights.

Thank you,

Andrew
