Your video helped fix my PC thank you. Was getting no response from nothing other than the tower removed ram and reinstalled waited then bam it works again. Looking to replace in future cause 8 ram is joke ty again
This is very helpful, thank you so much! I have one question though, what ram brand you used to replace the 2x4? I’ve heard online that you will have some problems and I see that you used the same brand as your old ram and I couldn’t find the exact same one as yours.
I wish I could...have not figured out if there is a trick to it. I did try some other RAM, but did not give me options to adjust. Non overclockable RAM with a base speed of 3200Mhz is as good as it has gotten.
I have a same pc and I bought a 16g 2666mhz ram, but I found the pc can't detect that ram. It's seems that ram is not compatible with the pc. So how do I know whether a ram is compatible with this pc? Or I just buy the hp ram from ebay?
As I usually am buying RAM for custom builds, I am more familiar with that process. One would go to the manufacturers website and they have a memory compatibility list there. These pre-builts and especially one so new it has really no documentation, it is a bit harder. Any RAM you put into this will run at the base speed as it doesn't appear to allow any kind of RAM Overclock. So if you want 3200Mhz RAM, you may need to get the HP one off ebay. That said, I do have quite a few sticks of RAM here as I have say 30 computers for my channels...I was planning on doing a video to show some alternatives. 16GB or 32GB of a slower RAM can outperform 8GB in certain situations If I make this video, it would show the brand of RAM and part number....and then I will show the speed the RAM is actually running at. Most of my overlockable RAM will run at 2133, 2400 or 2666 in this PC. I do not have any 2933.
I used genuine HP 3200Mhz RAM in this. Difficult to get though. Quite a few other types of RAM run in it..but will run at base speed only..ie 2133..2409..2666
Ebay. I wanted to buy it with 16GB from the factory, but charging me $100 to upgrade from 2x4GB to 2x8GB seemed like a bit of a ripoff. $210 for 32GB was even worse. Unless I missed a setting, it would appear one has to buy RAM that has a higher base speed, otherwise, you are stuck with say 2133, 2400, 2666. I thought about buying 2x8GB 2933Mhz RAM to see if it was compatible off Amazon, but found this instead. At some point, I will probably put some 2x 16GB @2666Mhz to compare against this.
so i looked up the compatible ram from the pc type. you can find this in your settings and search google for it. but i just got an external hard drive with 4TB of space. small little box and it works great.
Do we need to take out the 8gbs that are already in there? Can we just add the extra 8gbs to make it 16? Or do we need to get rid of the ones it comes with and buy new ones for it to work.
Someone may correct me, and you may want to Google, but generally you want to have the same type of ram for both sticks- they don’t typically work great together
Hello I bought an HP Gaming R5 RX 5500 Gaming Desktop, AMD Ryzen 5-5600G, AMD Radeon RX 5500, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Black, Windows 11 Home, TG01-2003w. I ran out of storage after I downloaded two games which was call of duty and apex. Is there anyway I can upgrade the storage
Yes, there are a few ways. I'd have to tear my open again, but there should be SATA power and maybe even a SATA cable in there to add an additional 3.5" HDD, 2.5" HDD or 2.5" SSD. I have not done in it Windows 11, but there should be a way to make a recovery drive. You may want to delete the games and may need a large capacity USB drive to do it. support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-a-recovery-drive-abb4691b-5324-6d4a-8766-73fab304c246 It will be nice when mfg's put at least a 500GB SSD in these things. 250GB is a waste of space. on the motherboard.
From what I experienced RAM that has to be overclocked will only run at its base speed as I have not seen bios settings to OC. This RAM is fixed at 3200MHz.
Idk I may be upgrading my ram to 32gb so I can run just cause 3 at a high fps well I mean it already does but it always says low system memory so maybe upgrading it to the will get me high fps
I got mine off ebay. I have never looked into another spot, but one day I need to pull the RAM for 8GB and google search to see if I can find it sold somewhere else.
i have the same pc but i bought it with 8 gbs of ram bcuz i planned on upgrading it. i ended up upgrading the ram to 16gbs with vengeance corsair ram but idk if its compatible or not
@@Nekkroto sorry for the late response, but yeah my computer was able to boot and run really smoothly for about 5 days or so but im pretty sure my computer just came with faulty parts
Can I put 32GB RGB Crucial Ballistix MAX in this? Thought I would buy this for later custom PC Upgrade when I got funds 😆. Used crucial scan it said this RAM you can put in this PC but not sure.
Can't guarantee that will be compatible but it should be. I put XPG RGB 3200 in it. Unfortunately, I was not able to get it to run any faster than 2666
@@PC_HardwareTechUnboxing_1 oh thanks mate I will try see what happens ☺️ I did a job for my boss he said he will give me limit what I could buy on Amazon so thought I will upgrade my ram to 32gb 😆from 16Gb RAM.
Someone please help me. I ended up putting in the ram (Teamforce 2 x8) but when i turned the computer on, it stated beeping. i panicked and unplugged the cord. please someone help
For some reason my ram sticks don’t line up correctly in my pc😮😮😮 Idk y. I have the same pc as the one in the video. Can anyone help me find the ram sticks he is using in the vid???
Hello, base speed of both the 2x4, 2x8 GB RAM that comes in these computers is 3200Mhz...so unlike most of the stuff on Amazon, those 3000/3200/3400/3600Mhz RAM sticks have base speed of 2133, 2400, 2666, these sticks do not OC to 3200Mhz. That said, I would probably buy 32GB of 2666Mhz RAM after the fact than to pay for $100 of 16GB of 3200Mhz at HP.com. If compatible, 2933Mhz, 2x 8GB would be another consideration.
@@PC_HardwareTechUnboxing_1 But would the 293mhz sticks run at 2933 mhz speed for would the computer make them run lower to 2133. And I know for this computer you change it in the BIOS
Cheap and a lot of features are not accessible. The only thing good about this computer really is the price...hard to find a GTX 1660 Super for less than $600. This computer on 2 separate occasions was listed at ~$639. Or with a RTX 3060 for under $900. You can really see why people buy these, take out the GPU and sell the computer for roughly $350 and up on ebay.
thank you so much for this, i’ve been nervous about messing up my pc since i got new ram!
Lot of positive comments on here...thank you!
Your video helped fix my PC thank you. Was getting no response from nothing other than the tower removed ram and reinstalled waited then bam it works again. Looking to replace in future cause 8 ram is joke ty again
So what would be the best ram to add that fits.into this pc?

So does it usually have two 4 gb sticks? Before any upgrades.
no just one 8gb stick normaly
