Hello Alex,
The reason the description is so vague is because its possible the ram installed from factory could be several different kinds.
In order to add a single stick to the existing, you would have to use a tool like CPUz and read the timings of that stick.
Then match the old with the new exactly. Otherwise it might have problems.
Or you can just purchase all new ram if you wish and bypass any compatibly issues. It uses DDR4-2133Mhz up to 32GB total, but you can simply install a matched pair of DDR4-2400 which will be the same price basically.
Crucial is what most of us recommend only because they have had such a good track record of warranty if it didn't work.
This is what they recommend.... https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP-Compaq/omen-870-224#MEMORYFilters
You can always find the model ram you want there, then look for it on Amazon... 😉

How much are you wanting to upgrade to? 16GB?
What is the goal you need to achieve? for gaming or something else?

Well, if you google DDR4 2400 desktop ram, you would be good with just about anything that fits that category.
Here are some examples...
Patriot Viper Elite Series DDR4 16GB (2 x 8GB) 2400MHz Kit (Red) PVE416G240C5KRD at Amazon.com

The spec says I can only go to 16GB of ram but if I can go higher that would be cool but mainly trying to get to that sweet spot 16GB

Ya well, the specs reflect what HP has installed on that series, but the chipset can take a higher amount.
Ive given you some alternatives.
Good luck.
