MAXIMUM RAM FOR DELL XPS 8300

I read that we can have a max of ram to 32 GB, even if the max ram on the manual is 16 GB. If so can I use: CT102464BD160B - crucial 8 GB 1600 UDIMM DDR3L? Why is there an L of DDR3 and why U infront of DIIM? I want to make sure that it would be compatible with my computer and not waste money on it if it does not work. Thanks in advance for the answer to this post.

It should work perfectly.  All memory DDR3-1600 with whom I worked this downclocks nicely at 1333 Mhz.  I have a couple of systems who got upgraded hand and DDR3-1600 memory and it works perfectly fine at 1333.

  • Update for Dell XPS 8300

    Will be the 02 G-P4-2663-KR of EVGA Geforce GTX 660 FTW Signature 2 2 GB GDDR5 192 bits PCI-E 3.0 x 16 HDCP and the Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus RS-550-PCAR-E3 550w ATX12V V2.3 power supply work in my computer Dell XPS 8300. I ordered end of March 2012 and he received mid April 2012.

    Hi FuzzyTrex,

    Dell XPS 8300 comes with Intel H67 Chipset and a PCI Express x 16 card reader for the expansion of video card options. Dell has tested XPS 8300 with the following video cards:

    • ATI Radeon HD 5450 5670 5770 5870 6670 6770 6870 6950
    • NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 GTX 460 GTX560Ti GT545 GT420

    However, Dell has not tested 660 GTX video card with XPS 8300, many users have reported he will be working and compatible with the system.

    EVGA GTX 660 requires a minimum of 450W power supply and has a maximum circulation of power of 140W. As you said that you would improve the power of 550W, the video card should work with this configuration.

    For installation/replacement of the video card, you can view XPS 8300 repair here.

    Note: Make sure that you follow the instructions in the manual before installing the video card.

    I hope this helps.

  • Update video card for Dell XPS 8300

    I'm looking for suggestions for a video card to replace the original NVIDIA GT420 DDR3 1 GB video card in my XPS 8300 running with Windows 7 64 bit.  The PSU is rated at 460 W (+ 12VA-18 a; + 12VB 16 A; + 12VC 8A; + 5V 25A; + 5V to the 2 0a; 3.3V 17A; and - 12V 0-3).  I would avoid upgrading the power supply if possible.

    The original of the NVIDIA card is a PCI Express x 16 slot.  I don't know if it's PCI Express x 16 or PCI Express 2.0 x 16.  Someone knows for a desktop XPS 8300 bought July 2011.

    Thank you.

    It is difficult to determine how quiet a card can be if you look on the comments of the people who bought the specific card you want, or you happen to find a professional opinion on this.   I find most of the double slot cards or cards with the biggest fans to shut up, so I don't think you need worry too much noise.   I have a Sapphire HD 6870 and it's very quiet.  I don't know the HD 7750 is fine for your application and games even if it will happen later.  With the game, you kind of match the video card with the monitor you own and resolution capabilities.  If you have a high screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 or more and you want to set this resolution, then you want a better video card.  After rebate, it may be that a difference of $20 between the 7750 HD and HD 7770 so keep that in mind also.

Because it requires the PSU because it so advise me if my pc can handle this card with the purchase of a power supply (currently I have nothing just the pc as it came with gt420).

    Hi paryant,

    XPS 8300 comes with 450W power supply. GeForce GTX 660 Minimum system power requirement is 450W.

    However, to get the maximum use of the video card, it is recommended to use higher watt power.

  • Dell XPS 8300 GPU issues

    I had a Dell XPS 8300 since 2011.

    The specifications are:

    Image Intel i7-2600 3.4ghz processor

    460W POWER supply

    8 GB RAM

    Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 5670 1 GB GDDR5

    My problem is that my video card is dead after 4 years and I need a replacement as good, or better, for less than $100. At first, I thought it was easy. Ordered a GT 730, a card nice entrance a little better than the 5670 range and more efficient power and he went through the installation process. The AMD drivers, uninstalled, change video card and it fits perfectly. The problem is that I just get a black screen on startup or, sometimes, the Dell splash screen.

    After hours of research I discovered that this won't work because the motherboard, 0y2mrg and it's bios, A06, are incompatible with the new GPU. Seriously? Rarely have I never heard of this problem. The last update is in 2011, the same year that I got this PC when it was new. What the hell with the lack of support?

    Whether it is, I'll find something which is compatible, but unnecessarily difficult. Those who have asked the same question to be taken from a few years ago and expired or no response. I've seen the Dell has approved the cards and they are ridiculously overpriced for what they are. The 5670 is a super card low-end and was again released as a back then, but Dell wants to sell for more than $200? If I try to look for it on other sites, like Amazon or Newegg, it is almost impossible to find or too expensive.

    My question is this, what is a good video card that costs more than $100 - $110 that works with the card mother Dell XPS 8300 and requires no other parts to change?

    Yes, I actually. The variant 750 GTX & it worked perfectly. I guess that something more old than they would be too much like GTX 780 if you wanted something strong, but you would probably need a bigger power supply. The GT 720 and 730 WON'T WORK if you wanted a less expensive solution. The GTX 750 TI is perfect as a modest solution however.

  • The upgrade of my Dell XPS 8300

    Hello

    Currently, I use my Dell XPS 8300 with set up the following:

    • Intel core i7 - 2600 to 3.4 GHz
    • 8 GB RAM
    • GPU: Radeon HD 5770
    • PSU: 460W (AC460AD-00)

    It has served me well but shows it's age while I was looking to upgrade the graphics card and the power supply if necessary. But this is the first time I did something like this then I'd some tips / warnings on the potential pitfalls before buying something.

    After doing some background reading, I was thinking get a GTX 970 and upgrade the PSU, but I would like to know, questions, I could deal with that. I heard there were problems with XPS 8300 bios don't do not work well with graphics cards. I am currently on AO3, but there is no problem if necessary upgrade.

    My budget is around £400-£500 if anyone knows the best ways to update my PC.

    Thank you.

    Consider using this for now until you can buy new. Spending that much on unnecessary updates are not handy on a computer that is a few years old. You have a good installation now - 8 GB of ram, big power, i7 cpu that is best for your motherboard - as long as everything works. New computers can easily be purchased for what your budget allows for upgrades. The only thing to consider is a video card a little better that your power supply will take place as well as better control that you can use when you get a new computer. Ignore the upgrade of processor since that is not worth the expense or effort for minimal returns. You most likely impossible to switch the cpu to a newer version without replacing the motherboard. I would make sure to have the latest and probably last - bios A06.

  • Change of motherboard Dell XPS 8300

    Hello

    I have a Dell XPS 8300 since 2011. Unfortunately, my printer ruined my motherboard with an electric shock. I put another card mother microATX in my PC? I've heard that some people had problems with Windows 7, it works with the card mother Dell OEM, but other wise I heard that it is only in the USA, a problem, because we in Austria have other laws. If it works, the old RAM will work with the new motherboard?

    Printers give electric shocks.  This is probably a power surge which fried the Mo and probably other hardware in the computer. Dell computers have motherboards owners so you would need a new Board from dell. It would be a waste of money to buy anything until you determine the extent of the damage. All the ram, processor, pci cards, etc. could also be goners. Best bet is to buy a new computer. Buy a computer for your new UPS battery backup unit.

    Maximum physical memory is 16 GB.

    In addition, please note that even if you could go beyond 16 GB (which you can't), you must have windows 7 Professional or ultimate edition installed as windows home edition premium does not run to a maximum of 16 GB of memory.

    After doing some research I think my card is called BCM57788

    Thank you

    I'm glad to hear that I am not on my lonesome.

    I did as you did and downloaded the Intel scanner from their site. The only thing he told me was that I need a later version. INF file.

    I also watched the page drivers Dell, which is not up-to-date. Intel reported the update is not listed, but there is a BIOS update, when I try to apply it, saying that it is older than the current version. Not very useful.

    I'd install the Intel update but I'm not sure if it will work. There are a lot of guard, but not much reassure layouts.

    On top of that, Dell does not do anything to see if my machine is able to win 10.

    As usual, Dell are completely behind the curve on this.

  • Maximum RAM for the R31

    Can someone tell me what is the maximum RAM for the R31

    Welcome to the forum!

    Could you please send the model number of 7 characters of your R31?

    Theoretically, 1 GB should be maximally to P3M units, but some Celeron machines have a slot already filled, that is why I ask the model number.

    Good luck and let us know.

  • Maximum RAM for old computer with operating system updated

    I have old a laptop Compaq Presario C700 initially provided with 1 GB of RAM and Windows Vista.  This computer has since been updated for Windows 7 32-bit and upgrade to 2 GB of RAM.  I checked Crucial site and he informed me that the maximum RAM for this computer is the 2 GB that I am currently.  Despite this, I read the posts of people successfully 3 to 4GB of RAM installed and still having their computer function properly.  I also read that the maximum RAM that can run on a Windows 7 32-bit system is 4 GB.

    Since I now have Windows 7, I will be able to further improve my computer to a 4 GB of RAM or the hardware of the laptop itself prevents me to do?

    The manual for a Compaq Presario C700 says on page 2 supports up to 2 GB of RAM:
    http://www.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01301275.PDF

    With all computers, you have two factors limiting the amount of RAM memory that may be installed, or the motherboard, and the version of Windows installed. In your case, it is the motherboard that prevent you from adding more RAM.
