Yes, you can install up to 2 x 8 GB of memory in your notebook.

 

See chapter 1 of the service manual for the memory upgrade information, and chapter 5 for the memory removal and replacement procedure.

Thanks Paul for quick response. So, can I install DDR4 8gb with 2600MHz there. Will it be compatible. I believe so, but the speed will be degraded a little to 2100 MHz. Please confirm

HP Recommended

You're very welcome.

 

The product specs for your notebook indicate that it uses DDR4-2400 memory.

The Intel processor specs indicate the processor runs the memory at 2400 MHz, so if you install another DDR4-2400 MHz memory chip it should run at 2400 MHz, not 2133 MHz.
