All I know is it takes DDR4 ram but need to know what it's max is so I can upgrade it,

Hi,

 

Your PC supports a maximum of 16GB DDR4-2133 Mhz RAM (2x8GB) Sodimm. It has dual channel support. You can also insert faster RAM(2400Mhz) which will be lowered to 2133 Mhz by the system.

 

For best performance and stability (dual channel support) it is best to insert two sticks of exactly the same RAM. There are kits available online for good prize especially designed for this purpose.
