Product: Pavilion 17-cd0526na
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

I Purchased a Pavilion 17-cd0526na 17.3" today, being delivered to me tomorrow. I'm told it comes with 8GB Ram installed as standard. I'm assuming this will be a single ram module installed in one of (hopefully) two slots. Which brings me to my main question.. I'm assuming this machine will take advantage of dual channel mode if I install a second matching ram module. Can you confirm this?

 

I will be editing video clips, touching in Hi Res stills etc, dual channel ram makes a noticeable improvement in overall performance during media editing etc so your answers to the above will be extremely helpful!

 

Many thanks

Pavilion 17-cd0526na 17.3" Gaming Laptop - Intel i7-9750H, GTX 1650 4GB, 1 TB HDD & 512 GB SSD, 16GB Ram - Dualboot Windows 11 Pro and MXLinux

It has two memory slots, and each one can take a max of 32 GB according to the report.

 

The HP service manual at the link below states the max is 2 x 16 GB.
