Hi Guy's here's a bit of advice for you - The Aurora R4 does NOT support (4x8gb)32Gb@2133mhz . It will support (4x8gb)32Gb@1600mhz.
The Aurora R4 will support a Maximum of (4x4gb)16gb@2133mhz or (4x2gb)8gb@2133mhz

I've been looking onto more ram also.
Thanks for the link and info but when I go to the Dell website and click on the upgrade tab it gives me recommended options along with this message,
Maximum Memory: 24576 MB (1067 MHz and 1333 MHz) or 12288 MB (1600 MHz XMP)
Number Of Slots: 6
Why does the PDF Manual say 4 slots?
And does the "recommended" ram from the website just for liability sake?
Is there a difference in the MOBO between an Aurora R4 X79 ALX and regular Aurora R4?
The Aurora R4 and ALX Version share the same mobo which has 4 slots, If you go on the dell web site and create an Aurora you will see you can only choose 4 rams , if you look at all the pictures people have put up on this site you can see only 4 slots - the web page must have a glitch

Thanks for the reply, I only see 4 slots in mine also.
So this, (4x8gb)32Gb@1600mhz, is the magic number we are looking for to max out the ram on our Aurora R4?
How do I find out what latency my current ram has now? Doesn't it matter?
Sorry mastsh, wasn't my intention to hijack your thread man. I've been real curious about the subject too.
