if you already have a 8GB 1600MHZ RAM on your PC you just need to buy another 8GB 1600MHZ RAM, that should work

Hope this helps.

On the manual it says "Non customer accesible/upgradeable". Does that mean Its not possible to upgrade the RAM? Or is it there as a warning to be careful when upgrading the RAM?

Thanks
