According to the spec sheet
http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/optiplex-780-tech-guide.pdf,
the biggest DIMMs it can take per slot is 4GB and there is 4 slots for a
max of 16GB. It comes with one 4GB DIMM, so we could get three of these

to max out.

laying around in a box so the graphics card fits right.
