increase RAM XPS15z

Question

Hi All, Well,  I'm planing to upgrade Ram Memory of my DELL XPS 15z for running some virtual environments. My question it's about the max amount of memory that the laptop support and the compatible memory modules. In some forums I read about 16Gb, but Dell PcCheckup shows 8Gb as the max amount of memory. Can somebody help me?

Did you try to install 16GB on the laptop and it didn't post? I would like to know what's the memory specs are you using on L511z.

There are L511z selling on ebay has 16GB rams:

Here's the result from kingston.com max 16GB:

I don't have a XPS 15z so maybe you are right. I have a asus A53E on the asus specification it says max ram is 8GB but I am using 16GB with i5 dual core cpu just fine.

Hi javabus, We would test the system at our labs before its release and the maximum memory supported as per the test is 8GB.
