This page from the Crucial web site should help. The maximum you can have is 32 GB of RAM so 1 16 GB RAM module will work. If you use 2666 or 2400 RAM it will run at 2133 and the Crucial RAM shown indicates that. As for HyperX, Dell, including Alienware, systems are rather picky about RAM compatibility and Crucial has been shown to be the most compatible.
