So I have an HP Pavilion Gaming - TG01-0018, and I was wonder what the max capacity of ram it could hold. I found this website https://www.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/hp---compaq/pavilion-gaming-tg01-0018nv, but I don't know if it is correct as it says 16gb of ram already installed, but I only have 8gb preinstalled. If that website is correct, should I buy ram from it? If not, what kind of ram should I buy, and where should I buy it?
*I should also note I had previously bought this ram https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07KGMBWBX?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details but when I installed it with the other ram and by itself my computer continuously blue screened.*
