Does the Dell 780 actually have DDR3 RAM as advertised or is it really DDR2. Check before you answer.

The Dell Optiplex 780 can ONLY take DDR3 RAM, if you see DDR2 then that was a mistake by another seller. If you have any questions please call us 844-889-1070 and we will be happy to help you and ensure you get the computer you want. We are RE-CIRCUIT. Thank you.

Memory *should* work in this model, although it has not been tested specifically by Dell. As with any laptop, manufacturers sometimes configure hardware to be very specific. Go ahead and try these sticks. You might have to go into the bios and manually configure speed, timing, etc. Worst case is that your laptop won't boot but it shouldn't harm anything.

The Dell in question has a capacity of 2GB--it originally had--stock-- (2) 512MB so you are almost doubling the Ram--If he already has 2GB, he cannot increase the Ram--again because the capacity is 2GB--hope this helps

Only 1 slot is used by 4GB RAM and I bought another 4GB RAM for the 2nd slot. It is L-DDR3 - it means Low Voltage DDR3 for laptop.

DDR3 memory referes to the memory sticks you can install and is unrelated to your video card. Video cards are compatible with pretty much any motherboard.

Well your Dell is DDR3 1600mhz compatible. So by all rights this should work just fine for you. Just install it and reboot the laptop. It will recognize the memory and start working right away without any kind of configuring. Very plug and play. Just make sure you have a x64 bit operating system. A 32 bit OS won't allow you to utilize more than 4gb memory, even if you have 16gb installed. So provided you have all that you won't have any issues whatsoever.

Despite the fact that the box claims to use DDR or DDR2 RAM, from my usage of it, it seems to just use DDR. Also, be aware that it does not have a built in Ethernet port, so you'll have to install your own NIC on it.

I have no idea if it has additional slots for more RAM, check with Dell.............

I have installed win 7 64bit and it works fine. About DDR3 I am not sure I use DDR2 that were originally installed in the machines.

DDR3 refers to your ram in your computer. You should be fine I run a gtx 780ti with this motherboard so there shouldn't be any problems with your build.

It seems Dell uses the same model numbers for different computers over the years, I found this http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_745techspecs.pdf which is for an older version that would for sure not work with the ram. Or I guess looking at your link no it won't work, this is DDR3 memory, where as yours uses DDR2.But you could try downloading CPU-Z (http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html), go to the SPD tab after memory, you can at least get what speed of ram you have there and work off that.

Try the Crucial website - www.crucial.com -they have an excellent detailed compatibility info service called 'Crucial Memory Advisor' tool. It solved my problem by definitely telling me that PC5300 DDR2 memory was perfectly compatible on my old Dell system which called for PC3200 DDR2 - PC3200 DDR2 is practically unobtainable now. I bought the PC5300 and it DID work perfectly. Thank you Crucial. BTW, the PC5300 I bought was not made by Crucial - I am NOT a salesman for Crucial!

Both boarsd I ordered were rev 2.1, which claims to support DDR3-1333 memory. The box should say which memory types it supports though.I should mention though that I couldn't even get this board to POST, with either one I recieved. It seems to be VERY picky about your hardware configuration and would not boot no matter what I did. Your mileage may very, but just a heads up.

8gb MAX mine game with 2gb, No. DDR ONLY, Doubtful dell support for this unit stops at vista.

Well actually I don't know, but I found a comment that responds to your question - Update: I upgraded the RAM on this computer using twoCrucial single 8GB DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) notebook modules, CT102464BF160B. The computer immediately recognized the new memory, doubling the OEM 8GB installation to 16 GB. While the captive screws that hold the memory cover in are a puzzling choice by Dell, it the addition of a some inexpensive RAM increased the overall capability of this machine. Hope this help you.

Its graphic card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 745M) came with 2048 MB DDR3 memory, and it just work for selected application. Regularly, it use Intel HD Graphics, also with DDR3 memory.
