Are RAM upgrades possible ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 GU605MI-QR038W

Hey I just bought the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 GU605MI-QR038W , but I really want 32gb (2x16gb) of ram rather than 2x8. Is this a possible upgrade? What specific cards would you recommend? Can I do this myself?

Since the GU605MI-QR038W has onboard memory and does not feature any additional expansion slots, it cannot be upgraded. The above information is provided for your reference. Thank you.

For further clarification, you shouldn't need to have more than 16gb of ram unless you're running multiple instances of windows, for example if you're running 20 windows of Google Chrome with Youtube running, this is when you'd want more ram, or if you have a game that is intense in nature and are running multiple copies of that game at one singular time, this is another instance where you'd want increased ram.

 

If you are experiencing issues like the computer shutting off during gameplay and are attributing the shutdown/freeze/reset to low ram, you'd actually be wrong, this is an issue caused by Microsoft Windows and there hasn't been a reliable fix issued until today which I will link below, hope it helps, best of luck!
