We do not support the Nvidia GTX 970 graphics card with this system. The maximum video card upgrade that we can support is the Nvidia GTX 760Ti. However, we have seen the Nvidia GTX 970 card working on some of the Alienware X51 R2s.
Some of our customers have also posted on the forums confirming this card works great with this Alienware system. Click here to view another forum about this topic. Since it's a 3rd party upgrade we cannot confirm full functionality. If you decide to go for this upgrade, we would recommend using a power supply of at least 330W.
