Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I have 16gb and 2 sticks right now and I was wondering what sticks I would need to get to upgrade it to 32. Like if i should get 2 more 8gb sticks or how should I go about this and how do I know if it is compatible or not.

Normally to get full benefit of dual channels architecture we use same RAM for BOTH sticks. Now you have 16GB (2 x8GB) to upgrade to 32GB you need to use 2x16GB.

 

Buy the way, its motherboard has 4 slots for RAM, you can simply add 2 more sticks with same existing RAM to have 4x8GB = 32GB

 

Regards.
