Can I upgrade RAM to DDR4 3200 MHz 8GB?

No. The laptop uses DDR4-2400 SO-DIMM which downclocks to -1866 speed. But the single memory slot can accept an 8 gb single module so you can have 8 gb memory it  just will not run any faster than -1866 speed.

You can expand the memory, but DDR 3200 MHz will not work.

 

See 2 Chapter 1 Product description

HP 15 Laptop PC (AMD) * Model numbers: 15-bw0xx HP 15g Laptop PC * Model numbers: 15g-bx0xx HP 15q L...

 

Max RAM bus is: DDR4-1866 MHz

 

If your mainboard has two memory module slots: use RAM DDR4-2400 it will clock down to DDR4-1866

If your mainboard has one memory module slots: use RAM DDR4-2400 it will clock down to DDR4-1866

You will not find DDR4-1866 memory on the market. All models in this series use DDR4-2400 bridging to DDR4-1866 speed.
