Product: HP Notebook - 15-bw074ax

So here's the thing. I just recently installed a new Kingston ssd to my laptop HP Notebook - 15-bw074ax and yes the performance boosted. Overall my laptop is running on a ddr4 4gb RAM 1866mhz. I want to upgrade my ram and I have 2 options for upgrade. An 8gb ddr4 2133mhz or an 8gb ddr4 2400mhz.
So my Question is: Can I use either 2133mhz ddr4 or 2400mhz ddr4 ram in a 1866 ddr4 laptop?

I would very much appreciate your answer. Thanks

Hi:

 

You can use either one.

 

Either speed will automatically bridge to 1866 MHz.
