i tried buying a stick of a ram from kingston hyper x fury but the laptop has a black screen result upon installing i tried troubleshooting the ram slot both using that ram the one i bought and i tried using the ram that was pre installed the ram.that only work is the pre installed one it means hyper x fury or kingston as well is not compatible with this laptop that runs on an amd chipset

HP Recommended

As long as you purchase the memory module that Kingston states is compatible, it should work.

 

You can't just put any memory module and expect it to work, since they have different configurations, voltage requirements and timings.

 

"it means hyper x fury or kingston as well is not compatible with this laptop that runs on an amd chipset"

 

Sorry, you have made an incorrect assumption in stating that Kingston  memory modules do not work with your laptop. You must use the proper Kingston memory modules.
