Hi:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

 

https://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06510442.pdf 

 

Chapter 1 has the memory upgrade information.

 

According to the manual, your notebook can support 2 x 8 GB of memory.

 

Generally, most notebooks with AMD Ryzen 3xxx processors will support 2 x 16 GB of memory.

 

You can run this command to confirm how much memory your notebook can support:

 

1. In the search box, search for cmd and click Run as administrator.

 

This will open the command prompt.

 

2. After the command prompt is opened, type wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx and press the Enter key.

 

There, it will show the maximum RAM capacity your PC's motherboard can support.

 

The capacity is shown as Kilobytes, so you have to convert it to Gigabytes by dividing the number provided in the report by 1,048,576.
