RAM Upgrade: Compatible RAM for Omen-15-dc1111tx

[rikuhiz]

I want to upgrade my laptop to dual channel. what is the RAM spec that compatible for my omen-15-dc1111tx?

I think I have RAM 1x8GB 2666Mhz installed on my laptop, is this mean that only 2666Mhz RAM that compatible for my laptop, but when I see https://www.crucial.in/compatible-upgrade-for/hp---compaq/hp-omen-15-dc1111tx#memory , some 3200Mhz RAM shows up, so is this valid?

other question, if I want to have dual channel RAM, do I have to buy the same spec as my installed RAM?

Thanks!

You can install 3200MHz RAM but it still runs at 2666MHz. You can use Crucial RAM

                   https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct2k16g4sfd8266/ct17628656

                   https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl2k16g26c16s4b/ct17628570

or use the following RAM as shown on my HP Omen 15-dcxxxx machine

     

Crucial also says you can use 64GB

           https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl2k32g32c16s4b/ct17628661                         will run at 2666MHz
