@bastian8347,

 

Yes, 2x16GB of DDR4 PC4-25600, 3200 MHz, Non-ECC, Unbuffered, UDIMM, 288-pin RAM sticks.

 

It doesn't matter if your RAM is specced at 1.35 V or 1.2 V, voltage is only applied when XMP is enabled, which is irrelevant for your PC anyway.

 

Please be reminded to never mix 1.2 V and 1.35 V RAM sticks.

 

So, 1.35 V is not only within spec for DDR4 RAM, it can potentially perform better, so it is nothing to be worried about. The 1.2 V was the original reference voltage for DDR4 RAM spec when it first came out a long, long time ago. Your Erica3 motherboard supports 1.35 V RAM.

 

Kind Regards,

@bastian8347,

 

Welcome to our HP community forum!

 

The RAM in your HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop PC TG01-1000a as fitted with an Erica3 motherboard (SSID: 87D6) can be upgraded with up to 2 x 32GB of DDR4 PC4-25600, 3200 MHz, Non-ECC, Unbuffered, DIMM (UDIMM), 288-pin RAM sticks.

 

You most likely don't need that much RAM, and I would recommend getting a matching 2 x 16GB RAM kit, such as this dual rank (2Rx8) purchase option via Amazon-Sweden: https://www.amazon.se/Timetec-Kompatibel-station%C3%A4ra-Uppgradering-datorminnesmodul/dp/B07QRVNB26....
