Just received one :) Upgraded powersupply to 700watt antec and gtx 1660 ti video and added another 16gig for 32. My only complaint is the case is too small for an I9 and the heatsink looks like something for I7. Too loud and hot unless I leave open and swing powersupply out a little. So ordered a better heatsink and if I have to will order a new larger case for it. Certainly fast though.

Check out this Dell thread for upgrading the cooling. I will probably do this soon. www.dell.com/community/XPS-Desktops/XPS-8930-SE-Exhaust-Fan-and-PSU-Upgrade/td-p/7311865

Thanks for the instructive vid! Got a question: can 8Gb and 16Gb memory modules work together?

Is there a RAM capacity per slot or can I put 32GB in DIMM 1 and 3 for a total of 64GB?

Thank you for the detailed breakdown. I'm not a computer whiz but your video made everything simple. One question for you, i have dell XPS 8930 and i'm thinking of upgrading to the new RTX 3080 and also getting a new power supply with 850 watts, my current card is RTX 2060. 3080 is longer and people pointed out that the top side exhaust fan will be obstructed by the swing out psu. It's a very compact case and i'm concerned about air circulation. Would it be too risky putting 3080 in this case and if i don't replace the fan will it over heat?

I have this desktop and want to upgrade the ram to 32gb so I purchased the kit Corsair LPX 32GB (2x16GB) 3200MHz C16 DDR4 DRAM Memory Kit... Would this not work since it is 3200? Or does it have to be 2666? Also would I run into any issues installing 2 16gb sticks?

Streaming Iraq War Veteran Got it thank you. Then I’m assuming since it can’t exceed 2666 would that mean it would stay at the low end I think being 2133?

I have a G5 desktop that cane with 1x8 so I guess it’s the same process? I had an issue many years ago where the system didn’t see all the ram

Do you have to worry about your storage being wiped when you switch your ram? Good video :)

how to force an xps 8930 bios to accept a 128 gigabyte ram upgrade?
@StreamingIraqWarVeteran Жыл бұрын
I don't think you can force more ram without a custom bios. I don't think anyone makes them for dell
