Upgrading my motherboard maybe the whole tower.

uncle willy · Apr 28, 2015

Does anyone know of a motherboard with an 1150 socket and 2 graphics card slots and will fit in a Dell XPS 8700 case?

Its easy enough to find out what cpu's/cards/ram works on what motherboard but how does a person tell what motherboard fits in what cases?

Chassis Serial Number: 8RH8N22
Board: Dell Inc. 0KWVT8 A03

Thanks

It's a microATX motherboard, so any decent Z97 MicroATX board should fit in well. It's quite tricky finding MicroATX boards with good SLI/Crossfire abilities, especially when it's on the cheap side, but it can be done.

This is the cheapest board worth buying with both SLI and crossfire support: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-z97mgaming

Personally I would just scrap the case entirely and get an ATX board for a lower price tag, and a new ATX case.
