HP ENVY dv6 Notebook
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

Hello everyone, hope all are staying safe.

 

I just need to know for my HP ENVY dv6 Notebook

Intel(R) Core (TM) i7-3630QM CPU @2.40Ghz,

(1) what is the max RAM I can upgrade to - is max 16GB (8x2)

(2) must I stick to exactly the same type of RAM? DIMM type, what are the options? 

Thank you in advance.

Hi:

 

Your notebook has two memory slots and the max memory is 2 x 8 GB of DDR3L-1600 memory.

 

Here is the link to the Crucial memory report which has compatible memory for your notebook's model series for sale.
