It's a bit of a gamble but experience has shown that on the Intel Core CPUs 2d generation which you have, the Quad COres, which you have,, can take 16 gigs. This is an entirely unofficial upgrade as the specs say it can only take up to 8 gigs.
HP does list an 8 gig module in the Service Manual:
Memory modules (2, DDR3, 10600, 1333-MHz) 8 GB (for use only with computer models equipped with an Intel processor) 634091-001
If one 8 gig module will work, so will 2. You want to be sure to get a matched pair.
P. 61 for "how to"
A pair of these is what you want:
