Microsoft Windows 11

Hi, what is the maximum RAM capacity for my 15-eg3017na Laptop? It is currently with 16 GB RAM. Can I increase it to 32GB RAM? I`ll be very grateful for your valued response.

Hi:

 

According to the specs for the model series the HP indicates the maximum memory is 2 x 8 GB.

I recommend that you run this command to see if it would be possible to install 2 x 16 GB of memory in your notebook:

 

1. In the search box, search for cmd and click Run as administrator.

 

This will open the command prompt.

 

2. Once command prompt is opened, type wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx and press the enter key.

 

There, it will show the maximum RAM capacity your PC's motherboard can support.

 

The capacity is shown as Kilobytes, so you have to convert it to Gigabytes by dividing the number provided in the report by 1,048,576.
