Max RAM on a Pavilion Gaming Laptop - 15-dk1035nr laptop?

[Tekula23]

Hello Support Forum,

Wondering if anyone can clarify for me in the Maintenance and Service Guide for the "15-dk1035nr gaming laptop" it says that the Max RAM for the unit is "32-GB of system memory" at "DDR4-2666".

But when checking Third Party RAM site Crucial Memory it saying that the Maximum RAM is 64-GB DDR4 at 3200 MHZ this is also stated on a website "Mr.Memory UK" says similar

So Wondering which is correct the Information the "HP Maintenance and Service Guide" or the somewhat reputable sellers listed above?

- If you all could help me find the answer be much appreciated and thankfull.

@Tekula23,

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

First, the max RAM speed your HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop - 15-dk1035nr can run is 2933 MH: which happens to be the RAM speed limit of the Intel Core i7-10870H, i7-10750H, i5-10300H, or i5-10200H.  You can verify it here amongst HP System Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-dk1xxx Users: https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/HP-Pavilion-Gaming-Laptop-15-dk1xxx/191280.

This means that 3200 MHz RAM will down-throttle ('bridge') to 2933 MHz.

You can easily ascertain what the max RAM capacity of your laptop is by following these easy-to-follow instructions: https://timetecinc.com/blogs/blogs/check-maximum-ram-capacity-of-your-computer#:~:text=Copy%20the%20...
