What kind of memory does your main system use? You can check this in CPU-z if need be. What kind of memory are you wanting to add? What is your motherboard? We need this info.

If it's the same DDR version (DDR3 for example), than you might as well try. There is no guarantee with memory, but I tend to find that most memory 'just works' (for example I took some memory from some Dell machine, put it in my PC and it just works)

Well my PC uses DDR3 1600 and the kit in the alien ware is the same just with a quad chsnnel kit of 32 GB.

It should be compatible then.
