hi guys, i have the alienware x51, i got it end of 2012 with the gtx 555, i7-3770 and 8gb ram.
id love to upgrade the ram to 16gb and upgrade the memory card, i see the new versions are using the gtx760ti and wanted to know if i can put one of those in the older version without problems.

any other advice would be great :)
thanks
 
There are no restrictions on which graphics cards you can use (provided it physically fits in the case).
I am curious about your desire to increase RAM though... what is going on that you feel increasing ram will help? 8GB is considered the "sweet spot" for ram in a gaming machine currently.
