ASUS ROG Strix G713PV – 64 GB of RAM possible?

Due to a funny mistake while shopping, my laptop ASUS ROG Strix G713PV is equipped with an unconventional amount 48 GB of RAM:
#0 [P0 CHANNEL A/DIMM 0] - 32 GB PC5-38400 DDR5 SDRAM Kingston KF548S38-32
#1 [P0 CHANNEL B/DIMM 0] - 16 GB PC5-38400 DDR5 SDRAM Micron MTC8C1084S1SC48BA1

This situation raises 1 important question, as these are two completely different memory modules with different specifications, timing, frequencies etc.

How can I check if these two modules work together at best they can? I know the faster module is limited to the values of the slower one. I tried MemTest86 and there were no errors. My system and all the software show exactly 48 GB. Maybe a better and faster solution is to remove the slower 16 GB module completely, and my laptop will work better with only 32 GB of one faster RAM module than with two 48 GB ? On the contrary, maybe an even better solution is to buy additional (the same) module 32 GB PC5-38400 DDR5 SDRAM Kingston KF548S38-32 to replace the 16 GB (64 GB in total!) and be sure it’ll be the best solution? On the official ASUS site there is information that ASUS ROG Strix G713PV supports max 16 GB o/RAM. Maybe the main board is limited somehow to these 16 GB, and this is a very bad decision.

Yes, I have unexpected restarts (usually one a day or one every two/three day) surprisingly while doing some light stuff like writing text in Microsoft Word or surfing the internet but never under heavily stress situations like playing AAA games at high settings or retouching big photos in PhotoShop. It may be due to the bad cooperation between the two RAM modules but at the same time it may be a bad power management policy (collision of Windows 11 Home power settings with Armour Crate) or any other situation.

thank you for your help

I reckon the official site just shows the max memory they put in their own pre-built laptops, not what the platform can actually handle. AMD says 64 gigs Ryzen 9 7945HX Specifications (amd.com) . But I've seen reports of the 7945HX running with 96 gigs (Zephyrus Duo 16 (7945HX) works with 96GB (reddit.com)) .

I run G713PV equipped with 7845HX and 64 Gigs of RAM and it is fine.

Best IMHO would be to get a second 32GB Kingston mem, identical to the first one

For the random reboots, try reapplying the AsMedia Hotfix Firmware updater, this turned out to be necessary several times for me, after an AMD chipset change. Then I always recovered a stable machine after.
