Can I transfer a Dell XPS 8300 motherboard onto this case?

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.

I can't tell you yes or no, but the case itself is quite small. I had trouble fitting all of my things in there, I don't know how I even got my motherboard in there.

Yes, this board should be Windows XP compatible. You can find drivers for XP on the Asus support site.It may be time to consider an upgrade to move away from XP if your getting this board / new CPU? But it should work fine with XP.

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. -AlbeKCCO

You might have to modify the case to make it fit,I would get the measurements of the power supply and then measure the inside of the Dell case and turn it sideways to see if it clears. If it does,you may have to drill 4 holes to line up the power supply to case so it fits tight.

Sorry, but I just don't know. Maybe you could google that question or even call Dell and ask them :-D

I Dont have a Dell XPS 8300, but I did a little reseach, the only problem I see is the psu, it has only 460 W, and the recommended is 550W, besides for that, it should work with your pc, Did you do a clean installation of the drivers?, it also could be the problem (sorry for my bad english)

I doubt it'll work in your case. You'll likely want a different PC case to work with. For about the same cost you could get an Antec VSK-4000E and avoid a lot of headaches trying to work things into that Dell case. I believe you do not have a standard removable I/O plate. You're going to be better off getting something like a Gigabyte GA-H81-D3 mobo, Intel Celeron G1850 and a stick of Crucial BLS4G3D1609DS1S00 memory brand new if your budget can take the hit. Your PSU is weird too, so you'd also need something like an Antec Basiq BP430 power supply.

No you can not, the maximum capacity of RAM for the 8200 is 2 GB total. In most cases I know Dell recommends 4 X 512 MB sticks. Make sure you purchase matching pairs or all 4 the same.

Yes, absolutely. That motherboard will fit in this case with plenty of extra room.

Yes, its just a upgrade from the 8800 and being its a K650M, it's made specifically for the Dell XPS M1730 laptop

Any standard heat sink will work for it. I just transferred my stock Dell heat sink. I usually don't worry about what heat sink I'm using until I upgrade the processor. The board went in my back up pc that has a FX 4130.

im not 100% sure because i cant find a similar enough dell xps to compare it to, but i dont think it is compatible

I've had a PC with the same card as you. I going to assume your motherboard has the port big enough, and you have the power supply for it. Other than that it's as simple at removing the old and putting the new one in.

Find model of your motherboard, go online to manufacturers site and read thru the specifications to learn what type and brands of memory they support. Most of the memory makers also offer compatibility information on their sites. Personally I find that Dell, HP and others make the computers so its impossible to upgrade from what they built. Depending on age of your's and the OS you may be better off with a new tower. XP Support ends in April 2014 so unless your upgraded to Win 7 thats another item to consider..... Good Luck
