I have up graded my ram from 12gb to 32gb but instead of running at the 2933mhz that it said it does with the 12gb it is running at default 2666mhz how cam i get it back to the 2933mhz

Edit: According to the reviews on Amazon, that model ram only runs at 2666 without XMP. Anything above requires XMP. Also looks like Like I said earlier, HP's don't use XMP.

Also CPUz isnt showing any validation for 2933Mhz, so no guarantee it will run that speed.

What is the model # ram?

Its hard to find ram that will run at its rated speed without XMP as HP Bios's are locked.
