- In this video I'll show you how to install new RAM and also how to find RAM that's compatible with your laptop.
This is the tool kit I used, it's nothing fancy, but it works so far.

This helped me do this to my own omen. Thank you! 🙏
very informative video, thank you very much.
You're welcome. Thank you for watching it!
Great video! I got a cheaper version of the Omen 16 and want to upgrade to 16 GB. It looks pretty straight forward. Thanks.
Can confirm, even a simple 32gb SSD for my son's phone gets shipped like that by Amazon nowadays
Great video thank you for uploading. I have a 16 GB ram but now that starfield came out I think I'll have to go 32
Starfield has been running pretty well for me. I don't know if the 16 gb of ram would have made a difference, but it's working pretty well with the 32gb in there. Definitely doesn't hurt to have it lol
@@ulrichfirelord Stanfield ran fine for me when it came out. I took a break and waited for them to update and "fix" the game. Really sparingly using my laptop for games here and there and now that I try to run it even on low settings it doesn't run. Is it a ram issue? I've updated all the drivers and everything
I installed 2x16GB RAM, but it’s only recognizing 16GB. Why is this happening, and how can I fix it?
Good vid👍 thx 4 easy tutorial 👉
Dont you have to set up the mhz config at the bios or something? Nice tutorial btw!
thanks! and no all i had to do was what i showed in the video.
I have the HP Omen 16.1 Intel i7 4060 and it doesn't have the advance options in the bios to upgrade the MHz. I'm returning it
@@SoSlow252 hey, i have the same laptop. did you find ram sticks that work for these laptops? please reach out
@@feiia7932 yes I have the crucial 32gb ones. You can't config the MHz so just buy the 5200mhz
@@SoSlow252 what do you mean by upgrade mhz? my laptop is also an omen and working with 4800 sticks, what happens if I buy 4800mhz 2x16 rams wont they work at 4800?
Hello i have an hp omen laptop WD cant find my pc on kingston i wanna upgrade my ram and with time maybe my processor
I thought omen didn't support this.
I was wrong?
Sorry I'm a newb. Just got an omen 16 and love it but my worry was the ram 16. That was my only option tho.
Usually, you can look up your laptop's information to see how much RAM you can install. I think I used this site, www.crucial.com. You can let it scan your laptop, and it will show you what it can be upgraded to.
@ulrichfirelord yea unless I'm wrong I looked it up and my model can do 2 16 g so that is wonderful news as I just got an omen 16

Risk of static damaging computers is slim to none. Screws are the same just different lenths.computer will not start if the ram isn't faulty.
i would've put the screws in a bowl or something. seeing them all lose on a dark matching table would make me paranoid.
I did that cause they're different sizes and I wanted to make sure the right ones go in the right spots
Did he say where he bought the Ram I could have sworn I heard it at some point
I bought it on Amazon, but the RAM is from Crucial. You can buy it right from their website too.
@@ulrichfirelord thanks! I’ve been playing with both the sites you used for my laptop and desktop. Took me a minute to find my model exact number but I’ve ordered the parts and hoping for the best. Do you know if there is two slots for the nvme memory? Or if I buy a new one for my laptop will I have to move my stuff elsewhere first?
you have a similar model to me. i have the 16-n0xxx. how's the ram upgrade working? is it worth it? is it handling everything better? do you game on it heavily?
The upgrade is still working. Probably Wasn't necessary for most games, but I wanted to make sure video editing was smooth and if it can go up to 32 might as well right? Lol. I don't do a lot of heavy gaming on it (I mostly just use consoles) but so far it's handled everything I've played on it. Most recently I played XDefiant and some Diablo IV and they ran fine. It also ran Hellblade 2 pretty well. I don't regret upgrading. I don't know if I actually had to, but I don't regret doing it lol
@@ulrichfirelord good to know. thanks! maybe if i see a good price i'll consider it then.
you're welcome
Guys he literally took all other measures but didn’t disconnect the battery which can lead to failure of motherboard
I unhooked the battery when I put a second SSD in and it made a little spark when I reconnected it and it freaked me out so when I made this video I researched a ton and it seemed like as long as you make sure it's off and the battery is disconnected from the laptop it should be fine. It was, but if I ever do it again I probably would disconnect the battery just to be extra safe.
Do you know how to changeor replace the SSD?
I have omen 16 which has 8+8 16gb ddr5 5600mt/s. I though it is normal but now i found that 5600mt/s is like 2800mhz. Is it possible to boost?
Disconnect the battery please..
I actually did disconnect the battery when I put a new SSD in and when I plugged it back in it made a little zap and spark. I looked it up and it seems like it wasn't a super big deal, (at least not this time) but I was afraid of it happening again and actually damaging my laptop. I researched a bunch and from what I gathered, it seemed like It would be okay to put the RAM in without disconnecting the battery this time. I'm sure it's safer to disconnect it, but I was worried that would happen again.
hi why removing the battery is necessary? I'm not a big tech guy.
@@lt6997 If the battery isn't unplugged it could still power the circuits while adding/removing parts (not good for you or the laptop)
Hi sir
My laptop is HP omen 15-EN1037AX , is it DDr5 compatible? Or if not is there any ddr4 ram faster than 3200mhz ?
I could be wrong, but unfortunately, I don't think it'll be compatible with DDR5, but there should be DDR4 that goes higher than 3200mhz, but I don't know if your computer can use it. Sorry I can't help any more than that. I don't want to give you wrong information so this is about as good as I can do lol. Try this link and if that is indeed your model, this might help a little www.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/hp-compaq/hp-omen-15-en1037ax
@ulrichfirelord thank you so much ! After so much investigation on motherboards i just realized that I can't use DDr5 unfortunately but I appreciate your help and the time you put to answer I post the same question on reddit too but nobody cared to answer lol that's kind of you
And thanks for the link you provided it helped me actually
Thanks again sir 🙏🏻
My laptop screen is pitch black now. What does this mean
what happened than did you solve it?
did you get it fixed? was it a huge deal or just a small scare?
Is your HP Omen the 2022 or 2023 version? I notice it has 2 SSD slots and there are some HP Omen/Transcend which only have 1 SSD Slot.
Pretty sure it's the 2022 version.
Damn. Overcautious! grounding yourself and using lil sticks to remove the ram!
it it possible to have 64GB (32x2) ?
My laptop seems to only support up to 32GB. It would depend on your specific laptop.
My omen said it only supported 32 gb on the kingston website and 64 on the crucial website but I got 96 gb ram and it worked on my system. I would buy it from a place where you're able to return it just in case it doesn't work.
Is the improvement from 32 to 96 worth it? Does your computer actually use the 96gb or does it restrict it to 32 gb? Do you have the site you got your RAM from? @@juliomata9073
