Will this fit on a Dell XPS 8700 Special Edition? It has a Dell MicroATX motherboard with four PCI Express (PCIe) slots.

Check your dimensions and measure the inside of your case. It barely fit in my antec 1200 case.

I just looked up the 8700 and the microatx mobo. I do not think it will fit.

Yes, it is. It will fit in a normal height slot or in a slot with a low profile. The length of the card isn't overly long or overly short, about average. It really shouldn't be an issue I wouldn't think unless you have an unusually crowded case or unusually tall heat sync on a motherboard chip near your pcie slot.

You will need a spare PCI-Express slot for the card. Open the case and see if you have one. Or check with Dell for your specific model number.Some factory motherboards have an extra, unused PCI-E slot ... many (most) do not. If not the only option is to change the motherboard too.

Go to dell website if it says your desktop Structure is ATX yes it will fit. However, I wouldnt buy this u are better off with a corsair PSU. I had the cooler master for about 9 months and then blowed up and messed up my gigabyte motherboard unlesa the motherboard was faulty, but after what happened I bought an Asus Mob and corsair psu

H Michael,I have a Dell XPS M1730 laptop. I had a NVIDIA 9800M GTX w/ 2 GB (2000 MB of Ram) installed by the guys at Staples. It boots up in 20+ seconds! A NVIDIA 8800M GTX w/ 1 GB (1000 MB of Ram) will fit the slot too - I was told. This is all I know. Hope this helps.Roxy

I used to work for Dell. I can tell you that MOST OEM motherboards do not fit in these cases.The holes don't line up. One of the reasons is Dell wants a Dell motherboard mounted in a Dell case.Maybe if you use duct tape. It may indeed fit, but if it does it's not the usual way Dell or otherOEMs deign their motherboards.

We would need more information about the model you have. If you can list your computer specifications, I can help you. There are many different Dell XPS models from Dell. If it's a laptop, then no. If it's one of the desktops, then get the specs posted here and we can be of further assistance. Good luck. This card is great.

I was going to say go to the Dell web site but I just looked, their entire presentation of this model is aimed at the layman and doesn't really say much. under slots it only lists memory, call Dell or maybe look inside to see if you have a pci-e slot.

can't be sure w/o your xpress code or svc tag - just look at the different form factors for optiplex 755 - http://www.dell.com/us/dfb/p/optiplex-755/pd that said - if your optiplex is no more than 2-3 years old - 99% yes, b/c it's PCI express ready and low profile (so should fit in small form factor - the worst case in sense of space for ext. card). given that - if I were you, unless you want to share your xpress code so I can actually check what hardware specs you have, then I'd say go for it - worst case return...

This will work with any case that can fit an ATX motherboard. However, it will not be compatible with the processor that comes with your dell. What exactly is the reason for your interest in this motherboard? I could help steer you in the right direction. -Albe KCCO

This is a very small graphics card if you have the PCI express spot on your motherboard it will fit. It came with adapters to make the back plate fit a mini tower.

It fit my Dell XPS 8500 fine but the thing popped and burned on install. I would recommend a diff psu. If you look at the recent reviews they are almost all bad including mine. Maybe something changed in the manufacturing of this product.

Yes! The XPS 8700 has a 450w power supply, thats more than enough for this video card.

The graphics card contacts and the heat sink piece are quite specific for only certain Dell models. Most likely it will not work.

Mr. Turner has the right of it. I haven't looked inside the case, but possible problems are not enough space for the new card, and not enough watts from the power supply. Then there is the hassle of upgrading the software drivers. It's not a good idea. It sounds like you want a customized unit. You can go through Dell or find a company that builds to order, or assemble it yourself. Be sure to check out any company that offers customized units. Often the cheapest is not a good idea.

As long as your motherboard has a spare PCI-e x16 slot, and you have physical room in the case for the card, you should be just fine. Make sure the drivers work for XP.

I haven't actually opened the box. But I have the mini tower and I believe there are both PCI AND PCI express expansion slots. I can only refer you to the dell specifications.
