Product: HP 795970-002
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I was wondering if I upgrade my RAM with the motherboard HP 795970-002. I wanted to see if I'm going to be able to install ddr4 RAM. I currently have 8 gigs of ddr3 1300 megahertz so I wanted an upgrade. Thank you!

Are there any ddr3 16 gb DDR3 ram that would support this motherboard? If so, do you mind putting an amazon link for them? Id appreciate it. Thanks!
