I wanted to get more RAM for my newly-acquired PC

Entering the make and model, HP EliteDesk 800 G1 Small Form Factor

Crucial suggests only CT2K102464BD160B

DDR3 PC3-12800 • CL=11 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1600 • 1.35V •
1024Meg x 64 • $76 even cheaper at NewEgg,


Kingston suggests only KCP316ND8/8

Specs: DDR3, 1600MHz, Non-ECC, CL11, X8, 1.5V, Unbuffered, DIMM,
240-pin, 2R, 4Gbit $98


The items are in different order but the main difference seems to me to
be 1.35v vs 1.5v.


According to HP, https://www.support.hp.com/us-en/doc...c03832938#AbT5
it should work with any ram that fits the description
1600-MHz DDR3 SDRAM; (4) DIMM slots enabling up to 32 GB, dual channel memory support

https://support.hp.com/us-en/product...c03831415#AbT5
shows the following part numbers for ram ...
Component

Option Part Number
HP 4GB DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800) DIMM B4U36AA
HP 8GB DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800) DIMM BU37AA

If you buy it from hp ...
https://support.hp.com/us-en/product...sodimm/5392599
it's 1.35v.

I'd stick with what hp is recommending. I haven't checked it's manuals, but
with ram it usually requires two memory cards at a time.
https://www.memory4less.com/hp-8gb-ddr3-pc12800-bu37aa shows it's available
at $68.40 each.
