My XPS 8500 came with 4 x 2gb ram [8gb total] I wanted to upgrade and saw a great deal on 2 x 8 gb modules.
When it arrives, should I remove the 4x 2gb and replace with the 2 x 8gb, or can I leave 2 of them in place giving me 20gb in total?
Assuming the answer is yes, is there any order I should install the new ram, ie slots 1 and 2, or does it not matter? Also I am running windows 8, do I need to tell it to use more ram?
thanks s for any help with this.
