Just purchased a xps8500 I7-3770 W/ video card,hd7870,Win7pro 64 bit , 2tb/256HD, presently it has 12gb of ram (2x4gb) and (2x2gb) DDR3 PC3-12800 (1600mhz) in it . I want to max out the ram to 32gb (4x8gb) @ 1600mhz. Need to know what 8gb/dimm moduels are compatable . All the ones I've seen are xmp enhanced and I dont have enough knowledge about compatibiity or if they will work . Is the motherboard on the xps 8500 xmp compatable. Does the bios on the xps 8500 have provisions for setting this type of memory (DDr3 PC3-12800 ) (XMP enhanced ) Dell is of no help they dont even offer memory 8gb/sticks for this new computer only 4gb/sticks which are not xmp type. However they do claim it is capable of 32gb max. hopefull sombody has already completed this upgrade and can tell me what specific type ,style, and speed they used to do this thanks Mac
