I know am kind of getting annoying..but the PSU in the alienware is in the form of AC adapter and i can only keep the psu outside??
if u want to know how the alienwares inside components and parts are see this :
this might help you understand the form factor and the way the components are placed..which can ultimately help me
what. i didnt get ur point. i cant even run a single game..
first i need to think of making my gpu properly work..i cant understand what u saying
1 and 2 i can consider.. 3 and 4 nop
Returning the gpu is a no go i guess..
1. 2x4gb
2. 1 cpu cooler and another to small fan to let out heat i guess. ( 2 fans in gpu )
3. 1x1TB just like u presumed.
Guys...theres also another problem...i cant change the psu..because the psu in Alienware x51 R2 is external..in the form of an AC adapter..
There is a powerboard inside it..which supports till 330w..and only EVGA's reference cards are compaitable it seems(though i dont understand what a reference card is) for example : https://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=04G-P4-1970-KR
What can i do?? need help please.

I found this in the dell community..by any means is it possible to run the card without changing PSU??

The main problem is I don't have room for upgrades..its a small form factor pc.
Only less upgrades can be made..
I'm thinking of going with corsair vs550 with 550watts and no..am not going to update gfx cards or put em in a sli connection..
Like I said there's no room for sli
