Dell N5110 i7 Model Ram Upgrade

Isn't there any way to upgrade to 16GB ram on n5110 inspiron (intel hm67 chipset) model?

Why is the max ram is limited to 8GB?

How about if I upgraded OS to Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Or is it a limitation of Motherboard?

Also if it is possible to upgrade memory with new OS, can I replace graphics card? I'd be interested in doing that if I can upgrade memory.

Thanks!

It's a hardware limit -- not an OS limit.

No, you cannot replace the video chip.

I am also curious to know what the maximum amount of memory a dell laptop can have too. I am also interested in finding low priced used dell computer parts. I found www.calhountech.com/dell-used-dell-refurbished-dell-parts.html and they seem to have great products, any other recommendations? Thanks for the help!

There are no memory adjustments in BIOS - either the RAM works, or it doesn't.  Since you're exceeding the specifications of the system,  there are no guarantees.

You stand the best chance of success with the highest quality memory you can find (i.e., NOT Kingston ValueRAM, or Corsair Value Select, etc.).

have a Dell N5110  INTEL with INTEL Graphics, i got new in 2013, installed A11 bios, was an i3, then installed an i5 , later installed an i7 they all work, moved up to windows 10 with 8GB of RAM from the 4 it cam with, lately i read that somebody installed Kingston HyperX memory 16GB and it worked, needed 8 GB of memory anyway for something else and i got Crucial CT102464BF160B, tried it in my Dell N5110 first, It Works. the Dell N5110 will do 16GB, tested, done it, you could probably use two 8GB Kingston HyperX also, but i know the Crucial works for sure, with mine the way it is anyway, could even be the same with a windows 10 i3, could try that but but i am not going to because i would have to take the whole computer apart, maybe some time if i get a chance, if you have an i3 or i5 you can try it and see if it works, i would say with windows 10 and A11 bios it probably would 

tried the 10600 (1333) it cam with, also the 128000s (1600) and the 14900s (1600) DDR3L, PC3L  they all work equally as well
