X51-R1, known CPU compatibility list?
Alienware X51-R1 KM92T motherboard with Socket 1155 LGA currently with a Intel® Core™ i3-2120 CPU @ 3.30GHz processor
id like to upgrade but the list of useable processorts seems very short.
I3-2120 3.3GHz
I5-2320 Quad Core, 3.0GHz
I5-3450 Quad Core, 3.10GHz
i7-2600 Quad Core, 3.4GHz
I7-3770 Quad Core,3.4GHz
I5-2320 Quad Core, 3.0GHz
I5-3450 Quad Core, 3.10GHz
i7-2600 Quad Core, 3.4GHz
I7-3770 Quad Core,3.4GHz
is there a expanded list i find it hard to belive that only one i5 or one i7 processor can work with this mother board
like maybe a i5 3470 etc?
thanks in advance

We cannot answer that question because we did not test other CPU. You will need to purchase the i5-3470 and install it to see if it will work.
