Envy 15 k233ca: memory upgrades and hhd

I'm trying to find out if the k233ca has a capacity of upgrade. By reading the plug here and there, the motherboard has 2 slots and there is 1 to 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3L module.

When I called customer service to see if there was a favorite of the seller, they told me that the Ram was not expandable as the machine has only 1 location and tot of the MB does support up to 8 GB.

Well...

As a technician, I'm leaning towards believing the former rather than the latter, and since I did not open upward again, I checked Everest and it shows 2 slots, one with a 8 GB module and a location empty.

Before I open the unit to find this information for me, I wondering if someone is more familiar with this device, or can point me to a more detailed specifications and current page?

My questions are specifically,

  1. What is the model of the motherboard more precisely and will support 16 gig?
  2. This is a configuration of dual slot, so I can use 2 x 8 GB modules?
  3. Can I use a low latency Ram? replace the original module to match of course...
  4. Is there a QVL for this MB?

Now for the HHD, a question... This machine will support SSD?

Based on the HP ENVY 17 Notebook PC HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC HP ENVY Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide of m7, it seems you should be able to switch to 16 GB of RAM and an SSD as follows;

Memory

Double storage configuration for the HP Envy 17 computer models
● 1 TB (5400) 9. 5 mm + 256 GB SSD SATA in m2 (TLC)
● 1 TB (5400) 9. 5 mm + 256 GB SSD SATA in m2 (MLC)

Please note that it requires an extensive disassembly and reassembly of the computer to make these improvements, including

remove, replace or loosening the screws up to 83. Also, note that other RAM/HDD/SSD configurations can run on this computer. It may be possible to have a facility that includes 16GB of RAM, a standard SATA III SSD and/or m2 SATA SSD card, but you will have to experiment to see specifically what works on your model.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

    Hi @MiroslavMarinov,

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

    I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your computer laptop TouchSmart from HP ENVY 15-j122ea and research of compatibility and upgrading RAM. Hereis a link to your page 47 for compatible memory manuals. I see that the specs are the same and you have a maximum of 16 slots for 2 x 8 MB RAM. Your choice should work just fine.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP ENVY Notebook m6-1105dx: question to DDR3L DDR3 memory upgrade

    I have a laptop of HP ENVY m6-1105dx.

    I would like to upgrade from 1.5V to DDR3L 1.35v DDR3.

    Is this possible without damage to my laptop?

    Thank you

    Joan

    The upgrades only to memory that can be made to your laptop is installation of memory modules that are guaranteed compatible by a manufacturer of memory.

    Your laptop is not like a mother gaming for a desktop computer. You are limited to the settings "protect me from myself" available in your BIOS. You cannot change the tension of memory to allow the motherboard to accept other modules of memory. Installation of memory with others that the specifications published by HP or other than guaranteed compatible memory modules will probably reward you with no experience to have fun a non laptop startup.

    That said, I recommend you do a search on google for HP ENVY m6-1105dx memory upgrade. Stick with well-known brands to avoid surprises.

  • HP ENVY Sleekbook 4-1000en: upgrading memory on ENVY 4-1000en

    Hello

    Since I have some basic computer knowledge, but I want to be sure before you go for it, I need your advice.

    I have a HP ENVY Sleekbook 4-1000en and I have recently upgraded to HDD and the OS.

    I think the upgrade of RAM have, as far as I know that you need 2 memories of the same type, so I guess I can't buy an another 4 GB right?

    Do I need 2 x 4 GB of DDR3 memory, of the same type to make it work? For example they would work very well

    http://www.corsair.com/en/vengeance-8gb-high-performance-sodimm-memory-upgrade-kit-cmsx8gx3m2a1600c9 ?

    Finally the upgrade memory requires any other configuration after plugin in? Is a format for example?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    The following link shows the specifications of your computer:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03362810

    It has 4 GB of RAM now. The question is 4 GB in a dwelling or in the two slots (2 + 2).

    b in the case of a home, you can just buy another 4GB with SAME part/characteristics of the EXISTING RAM and install in the second slot.

    (b) if in 2 slots (IE 2 + 2), then throw them both and buy 2 new sticks 4 GB each. Agin use even care.

    You don't need to format RAM. Moreover, we have only to format HDD/SSD but not RAM. And Yes, push in the two slots must be same same specs even marks to be able to get all the benefits.

    Kind regards.

  • 700 - 281eo envy: RAM upgrades and guaranteed

    Hello!

    So I have a question regarding the upgrade of my computer.

    I recently had a problem when it comes to my RAM. It seems that 8 GB of RAM is not enough, that I use my computer for (mainly play games etc...), as I had many accidents because of the low amount of available ram (for example 4 Fallout, which uses almost all of it).

    So my question is: if I have the RAM on my computer upgrade me a 16 GB Kit, my warranty is void? And would do no matter what kit of RAM, or I have to use strips of crucial ram?

    Also on the side in question, if I decide in the future to update my graphics card to a GTX 1060 (which uses 70W less than my current 270 R9) that manages the more wins.

    Thank you for reading!

    @Robert_B

    Adding memory wouldn't void your warranty. "Unless you break something, do the upgrade".

    You can use any memory manufacturer provided they meet your specifications.

    ● 204-pin DDR3-DIMM

    ● DDR3 PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) SDRAM memory

    ● Unbuffered non ECC DIMMS (64-bit)

    ● 1, 5V dead memory

    ● 16.0 GB maximum installable memory help

    4 GB modules. Actual available memory that

    can be used in Windows will be less.

  • RAM upgrade and Satellite A200 - 19K graphic card memory:

    Hi all

    The Satellite A200 - 19K came with 1024 MB memory system. It's only 2 cards of memory of 512 MB or just 1 memory card 1024Mo in the system of the laptop? I would like to add another a 1024 MB of RAM, is that the slot more be available?

    The second question is on the graphics card from NVIDIA. The product specification mentions the graphics adapter as below...

    Manufacturer: NVIDIAî
    type: NVIDIAî Geforcea? ¢ GB 7300 supporting Turbocachea? ¢ technology
    memory: 64 MB dedicated VRAM (up to 335 MB of total available graphics memory using Turbocachea? ¢ technology with 2 GB of system memory)
    memory type: DDR video RAM (resp. video RAM DDR and DDR system memory combined)
    connected bus: PCI Express 16 x

    My question is, after upgrade from 1024 MB to 2048 MB system memory, is that the card NVIDIA GeForce will be automatic upgrade from 64 MB to 256 MB for graphics memory?

    TAHNKS A LOT!

    Hello
    >, It's only 2 cards of memory of 512 MB or just 1 memory card 1024Mo in the system of the laptop
    I think that the laptop came with a module of memory 1 GB and the second Bank should be free.

    Now something about the graphics card.
    Well, the graphics card GeForce Go 7300 supports own graphics memory 256 MB (no shared memory!)
    But it also allows a dedicated memory.
    This amount of memory is variable and depends on the available main memory.

    I think that everything runs automatically and you will not need to change the settings to assign this memory dedicated after main memory upgrade

  • Envy 15 t-j000: upgrade of 15 t-j000 to win 10 and new SSD at the same time

    Hello

    My cell phone is 8 GB, 1 TB with the 24Go running Windows 8.1 MSSD.

    I want to upgrade to 10 windows, but do not want to 'upgrade' this particular configuration.  What I would do is update my 16 GB ram and my HD to a 1 TB SSD.

    (1) upgrade to 16 GB means that I can't use the WSSD of 24 GB than anything more correct?  I guess if I upgrade the essential motivation for one SSD I more need for MSSD. Or is - that's a good idea to upgrade the WSSD to 32 GB then the swap file on a drive "distinct"?  (is this obsolete technology, old school board?)

    (2) is there a way to download Windows 10 and burn on a DVD or USB installation and then install "fresh" of without first upgrading my mechanical drive Windows 8.1?  The reason is, I'm a student, I can't have my laptop down for awhile so I can't afford a 1/100 chance I'm going to kill my laptop and Miss assignments.  I think if I start the upgrade and have problems, I can put the old drive, remove the extra memory and get until I can afford more downtime.

    Anyway, any help on this is appreciated.  My computer works very well for being a 2 years, so if I can't do it a bit without pain, I'll go ahead and leave it as what.  Thanks for any idea you may have.

    The clean install with Windows 10 will require that buy you it and the upgrade is free, updates and I did probably 15 to 20 of them, went virtually flawless for me. If you clone, just do a "sizing" of leave and small differences will be accrued.

  • HP ENVY 750-177c: I have a HP ENVY 750-177c and has been upgraded and 2 thin black wires were disconnected.

    I have a HP ENVY 750-177c and has been upgraded and 2 thin black wires were disconnected from the motherboard.  They have loops at the end of the wires that look like they might slip on the pins.  The wires connect to the upper part of the box of the computer.  Where to reconnect?

    Find this card in your system. It is the M2 half-bridge Wireless card.  The other end of the wires must always be fixed.  There are 2 heels left and right of the '2 '.  If everything is correct, it is your physical WI - FI antenna. Just re - stick inside the case.  The small clips are used for an external aerial connection.

  • New PPr upgrade and memory problems now

    I upgraded my version of PPr CC 2015 20 days ago and I went back to make a project that I had previously worked on and made more than 3 weeks. Now, it will not be made and the computer is just running out of memory and encoding is abandoned. I am on Windows 7 with a 2 years old i7 processor and have been able to use the first Pro CC 2015 without problem until the upgrade to the latest version that came out about 20 days ago. Are there bugs that are being developed here? Thanks for any info. I had the project made out by removing all effects to make sure it was a memory problem and quite sure the file render out with effects off the coast. However, I could make with effects on before this update.

    Thanks for you response Brian.

    Can you remove the effects of light and then give it a shot? Effects of light seem to be common with those who have reported this problem.

    Thank you

    Chassis: HP Compaq 6000 Pro Compact

    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo @3. 00 GHz

    RAM: 2 x 1 GB

    OS: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    I can add more technical info on request.

    Recently saved this PC of my friend tries to throw it. Everything is fine with the PC. It works perfectly and there is no material visible failure wihtin the PC either. He just bought a new and had no need for this one.

    Before turn me this into a House mutli-purpose server, I decided to upgrade the RAM.

    So I did some research and found this page: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01883661

    DDR3 240-pin DIMM 1333 MHz non - ECC, Max 4 GB per DIMM slot, Total Max 16 GB module.

    I went and bought RAM Corsair. Link to the product: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cmv4gx3m1a1333c9

    I decided to get 2x4gb and upgrade later if I felt the need.

    I was happy to install in the PC. one in DIMM 1 slot and the other in the DIMM 2 slot.

    BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

    I thought that maybe the slots are wrong, maybe they have to odd numbers then numbers.

    So I changed the RAM of DIMM 2 DIMM 3.

    Once again, the annoying ringtone.

    I even tried leaving just the 4 GB DIMM 1 and tried to start the PC, but nothing helped.

    I tried a lot of different combinations with the end result is 5 annoying beeps.

    After that I thought that maybe, just maybe, an update of the BIOS can change things.

    So I installed Windows 7 (I can't stand Windows. Arch Linux FTW) and performing a BIOS update.

    I then installed the new RAM again. Yes... frickin 5 beeps AGAIN.

    I am extremely disappointed at this point. I spent already $ 70 on a computer with free access.

    I read the forums here, but I couldn't find a thread with a solution for me.

    Is there anyone on this forum who could lend me a helping hand?

    Any information would be gladly appreciated.

    PS Please report any stupid error, I did. Stick and stones could not curb my bones.
