Is it possible to increase RAM speed?

[Mariangello]

Hello,

I have HP Omen 870-287nc and I would like to ask if it is possible to increase RAM speed from default 2133 MHz to 2400? If so, how?

Hello
sorry, from the info on the motherboard, it seems not!

• Dual channel (2 DIMMs per channel) memory architecture
• Four DDR4 DIMM (288-pin) sockets
• Supports PC4-17000 (DDR4-2133)
• Supports 4 GB and 8 GB DDR4 DIMMs
• Supports up to 4 GB on 32-bit systems

  note:

  32-bit systems cannot address a full 4.0 GB of memory.

• Supports up to 64 GB (unbuffered) on 64-bit computers

  note:

  HP has tested a maximum of 32 GB on this system and does not recommend maximum memory beyond the 32 GB amount.

• 870-287nc Product Specifications
•  motherboard specifications, Thimphu-K

Thank you, Prométhée, are there any external programs from HP which can improve performance?

Not to my knowledge ..
There are software programs that claim to be designed to optimize performance, but that is nothing special in general.
I have already tested a few programs of this type in the past, but I quickly stopped.
All I use is ccleaner, in order to delete some unwanted, useless files ...
Don't be fooled by paid programs, it's definitely not worth it
