Hello, I tried upgrading my RAM from 8gb to 16gb. My hp omen originally has kingston 8gb ddr4 2666Mhz RAM. So I bought Samsung 8gb ddr4 2666Mhz and I am facing blue screen memory diagnostic error frequently. Now, I want to know if I replace the Samsung with Crucial 8gb ddr4 32000 Mhz,  will I face similar issues.

Hi:

 

I don't believe anyone can answer your question with certainty.

 

Crucial memory is usually compatible with other brand memory chips but there are times when it is not.

 

However, when it is not compatible, the notebook usually doesn't even boot up.

 

The 3200 MHz memory will automatically bridge to 2666 MHz.

 

This is the Crucial 80 GB 3200 MHz part number that you should be using:
