1) Model name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz
2) Max Memory Size for the processor with dual-channel 32 GB from Intel processor specification
3) Memory Type DDR4-2133, LPDDR3-1866, DDR3L-1600 from Intel processor specification
I am 8 GB DDR3 RAM for 2 slots. Is it possible to upgrade to 16GB each, 32 GB in total? If not, 16GB total
Can I use DDR4 RAM instead of DDR3 RAM? The model number is 693374-005 for 8GB DDR3 in the manual
Please advise, with the appropriate model number, maximum RAM per channel, type.
Thanks

Thanks.
It has 2 slots(not one) for 2 RAMs, and I am using 4GB RAM for each one of them.
As per Intel CPU specifications for the same, the motherboard supports a maximum of 32 GB RAM.
Hence, I am looking for a suggestion on upgrade,
Thanks
