Hi Self Hosting Lemmings!

I'm looking to upgrade the RAM in my 3-node proxmox cluster and could use some advice. I have 3 HP ProDesk 600 G3 Mini PCs that claim to support up to 32GB of RAM. However, I would really like to upgrade to 2x32GB for 64GB total.

Is it possible to run with more RAM than the recommended amount? If so, are there any problems I might run into? Any insight is greatly appreciated, thanks!

This is good comprehensive advice that allowed me to do more of my own fact checking against my hardware. Looks like my hardware should support 64GB RAM just fine, with the caveat that my CPU will only be able to run the RAM at max of 2400Mhz. But I'm ok with the speed limitation, since I'm after the capacity. Cheers!
