Product: Pavilion 15-cb527tx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

I have a Pavilion 15-cb527tx. I got it 2nd hand. It currently has 2 x 4gb Ram chips. There are no spare slots. I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade to 16Gb by replacing the current chips with 2 x 8gb Ram. Will the motherboard accept this? What are the exact Ram chips I need to get?

 

Thanks!
