I would like to know what RAM will be compatible with the desktop

[KevinLe123]

I currently have  a single stick of 16GB of RAM and would like to upgrade it to 32GB or at least 24GB as there are 2 RAM slots on my motherboard. What RAM am I able to buy?

Get an identical one.  Use either CPU-z to find the part number or just run the following command

wmic memorychip get devicelocator, capacity, speed, MemoryType, formfactor, partnumber, manufacturer

then google for the part number such as HP26D4U9D8ME

you can also go to the below site and put in your serial number and look for memory that has an HP part number instead of a manufacturers part.

The part number is: L93627-800
Are there any trusted sites where I can buy the part from? I tried looking for it on amazon, ebay and, newegg and they all seem to be out of stock or I can't find them. Also, for some of the more questionable sites, it was listed at $95, isn't that a bit too steep for a 16GB RAM stick?

I looked up that HP part number L93627-800  here and a picture of it does not even show an HP part number

I can see the 2Rx8 and the PC4-3200 easily.  Do not mix 1rx8 and 2rx8 and you should be ok.  Just check for returns accepted and get 2rx8 and 3200 with 1.2 v

If you can make out the manufacturers part number then get one on eBay or Amazon with the same part number.

Alternately, use that CPUz app or the WMIC command.
