I'm looking to upgrade my Inspiron 14 3000 (model 3493) laptop from 12GB (4GB + 8GB) to 32GB RAM. I believe it supports that much, but I'm unsure about the maximum frequency RAM I can use. The motherboard is labeled 0xjgvg, and my processor is an i5-1035g1. I've tried searching online but couldn't find any concrete information. Can anyone help me figure this out?

Great point about the motherboard! It does play a crucial role in the RAM speed support. So while 3200 MHz is what's officially supported, some motherboards might allow for higher speeds, but that's something you'll need to check in your BIOS settings or with the manufacturer's documentation.
According to Intel's specifications, the maximum RAM frequency for your processor is 3200 MHz DDR4. This means you can use RAM modules with that speed. However, if you enable XMP in your BIOS, there's a chance it might support higher speeds, but that can depend on your motherboard as well.
