Alienware Aurora R4 question about upgrading RAM

Hello i have a question i currently own an Alienware Aurora R4 and What i was wondering if it can take 4 4GB sticks of either DDR3 2133 240 pin DIMM or DDR3 1600 240 pin DIMM and does it matter if it's either ECC or Non-ECC.

 

Thank you for all the help ^_^!

    I'm just double checking Only four slots will work because on this it does say 16gb (2x8GB DIMMS)
