note there is a singular 4 year gap between R4 and R5. this is because R4 started basically on sandy bridge-E in 2011-2012 (after R3 starting on i7-2600 sandy bridge) and later upgraded to ivy-bridge-E (2013).
Dell never wrote a bios update for R3 to support ivy-bridge
there is no Aurora on i7-3770 (2012)
Dell never made an Alienware Aurora model based on Haswell
there is no Aurora on i7-4770 (2013) or i7-4790k (2014)
Intel 5th gen is a gap gen
i7-6700 in R5 is released in 2015
PS
x51: i7-2600 and i7-3770, H61 chipset
X51 R2: i7-4770, H87 chipset
