Hello, I have a HP Desktop PC 880-p1xx that I'd like to add some more RAM to, and mayhap a better graphics card.
Any recommendations for a better graphics card that doesn't need additional upgrades to the PC, and how much RAM can I put into it?
https://www.mrmemory.co.uk/memory-ram-upgrades/hp/omen-desktop/880-p1xx I found this one, it says 64 GB is the max limit, is that correct? and is that the correct type of ram things for this PC?
,.Thank you

Welcome to our HP community forum!
First of all, your HP OMEN 880-p1xx as fitted with a Tampa2 motherboard (SSID: 8437) is a highly upgradeable gaming platform, with many years left given the fact that your rig can be fitted with both 8th and 9th gen Intel processors, such as an i7-8700K, i7-8086K, i7-9700K, and the mighty i9-9900K. In addition, since your motherboard is 24-pin ATX power enabled, you can upgrade your power supply (watch its dimensions (LxWxH) for fit inside your case) if needs be.
In other words, the sky is the limit when it comes to upgrading your graphics card: as long as the GPU fits, you can likewise upgrade your power supply to meet its power requirements. What power supply do you got, and what graphics card?
Yes, the 4x16GB RAM information is correct. However, I would recommend using DDR4 PC4-25600, 3200 MHz, Non-ECC, UDIMM, 288-pin RAM sticks which will down throttle to either 2933 or 2666 MHz, like you can see with this HP OMEN 880-p1xx User: HP OMEN by HP Desktop PC 880-p1xx Performance Results - UserBenchmark.
Mind you, you probably don't need 4 x 16GB RAM to achieve outstanding gaming performance, but if you got money to spend, by all means, knock yourself out.

Yes, the Kingston Fury RAM you referenced is an outstanding option.
I need you to verify what the wattage is of your power supply in order to provide you with any graphics card upgrade suggestions.
