I was told I could install total of 16gb 8GB EACH SLOT in my AIO, but today I was reading the HP SUPPORT ASSISTANCE SAYS I COULD INSTALL 32GB OF RAM 16GB IN EACH SLOT, SO CAN I INSTALL 32GB OR NO? SEE BLOW FROM HP SUPPORT ASSITANCE IN MY COUMPUTER. THANK YOU

hi
Sorry @NonSequitur777
so @I59400T
Just a piece of advice, take it or leave it.
do not install 32 gb of ram unnecessarily..
in many cases it is useless, at least check if you need 32 gb
Crucial site rarely gets it wrong, but hp only says 16gb
But that's not the point, see if you don't need only 16 gb..
How to identify what is slowing down the computer
however it is mentioned if this one

Internal Storage | 1 TB 7200 rpm SATA |
it could be more advantageous, to install an ssd disk
One M.2 socket 3, 2280 type for SSD

The OP asked if 2 x 16GB of RAM could be installed and was given the correct answer: yes.
You are correct that 2 x 8GB would probably suffice for most applications, but again, @I59400T's question was answered.
