Can I expand the ram of my HP victus from 16 GB to 32GB?

HP only has the service manual for the original 15-fa0xxx model series which indicates the maximum memory is 2 x 16 GB.

Maintenance and Service Guide

You can run this command to see if you can install 32 GB of memory in your notebook:'

1. In the search box, search for cmd and click Run as administrator.

This will open the command prompt.

2. Once command prompt is opened, type wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx and press the enter key.

There, it will show the maximum RAM capacity your PC's motherboard can support.

The capacity is shown as Kilobytes, so you have to convert it to Gigabytes by dividing the number provided in the report by 1,048,576.
