It will easily run 8gb. The Maintenance and Service Guide I posted link to above gives all compatible cpu's. Up to  i7-7500U is supported. You might find that the extra ram and possibly an SSD would boost the performance enough without upgrading cpu. Your model supports M.2 Sata 3 SSD or you could replace the hdd with a 2.5" SSD such as Samsung 860 EVO

Depends on which configuration of that model you have. It came with everything from Celeron N3060/Pent N3710 to i7. With i3- i7 you should be able to upgrade easily to 16gb- 32gb if it is in budget. If you have the Celeron you are limited to 8gb.

HP offered these configurations:

Thanks for the reply!

 

About the pc, it has Intel Core i3-7020U as cpu, so i believe its ok if i upgrade my ram from 4gb to 8gb. Also i forgot to ask but i would like to know if it is possible to upgrade cpu on a Hp 832B mainboard.
