Win TV

I have an XPS800 and thinking about buying the XPS 8500 my 8000 has a Haauppauge Win TV HUR-1200.  Going through the spec of the 8500 there does not seem to be an option to buy a TV card or a dedicated sound card.  Should I put my Haauppauge tv card in the 8500 or would it not fit?

Thanks

shirl24,

Studio XPS 8000
Motherboard slots =
PCIe x16
PCIe x1
PCIe x1
PCI

Audio =
Onboard Realtek ALC887
Multiple PCIe x1 sound cards

XPS 8500
Motherboard slots =
PCIe x16
PCIe x1
PCIe x1
PCIe x1

Audio =
Onboard Realtek ALC3800
PCIe x1 F333J Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Card 

So you cannot add the PCI slot Haauppauge Win TV HUR-1200 to the XPS 8500. You will need to purchase a PCIe x1 slot TV card. Something like this: http://dell.to/XPnfu4 (Win TV-HVR-1800 PCI Exress X1). Or check locally for a PCIe x1 TV card.
