Q: QuestionWhat is the motherboard on this CPU? If I want to upgrade the RAM which brand do you recommend? Are there compatibility issues I need to worry about?

Asked 4 years ago by KentGuy.

• A:Answer This desktop has an Intel H470 chipset and you can upgrade the ram up to 128 GB, the memory recommended for this system should be a dual-channel DDR4, 2666 MHz/2933 MHz. However, we suggest you to not do any third party or non-Dell aftermarket upgrade, as that can void the system’s warranty. We suggest you to contact the Dell Technical support team regarding this query.

Q: QuestionHow many slots does it have for RAM and what is the maximum RAM this computer can handle?

Asked 4 years ago by Ryan.

• A:Answer All I know is you can't upgrade the power supply. I wanted to upgrade the video card (for more Display port slots), Geek Squad said it was not doable as it's fixed in position or something like that. However, I believe you can upgrade the SSD and RAM (not sure on how many slots).
