    It supports a maximum of 32GB with two 16GB DDR4 2400MHz RAM modules. You can install higher frequency modules such as 2666MHz or 3200MHz but the will only operate at 2400MHz allowed by the mainboard bus.

    Well, idk how is that possible, but cmd.exe says that i have 2667mhz ram
    Is that true?

    And also on crucial web-site you sent are some modules with over 2400mhz ram and it says it's compatible

    >>>You can install higher frequency modules such as 2666MHz or 3200MHz>>>

    Yes, as mentioned earlier, higher frequency modules will work just fine at whatever speed you mainboard bus allows.

    Good luck. If it was mine, I'd probably choose a 2667 MHz module (such as from this link) to match the current 2667 MHz module that's in there now.

    Hey
    I did upgrade my RAM with two new Kingston sticks 2666mhz 8GB x2
    But i have a little problem
    2.1gb is reserved by system for hardware
    Windows settings are okay

    I didnt find a setting in bios i could do that with, so i did update it with acer official bios installer and didnt see any changes in available settings
    I do have a advanced settings in my bios, but there are only 2 toggles and they have nothing to do with ram

    Is there any way to unlock it?

    The Windows GUI system needs at least 2.1GB of reserved RAM to run properly. If it wasn't reserved, Windows wouldn't boot.
