dual channel is around 15-20% faster than single channel, so kung mag math2 ta, mau2 ra na silang duha... di ko expert aning mga butanga, huwat lang ta sa mga pro dri...

pero naa sd advantage ang dual channel, kai kung mu fail ang isa, naa pa kai reserba, ang advantage sad sa single channel kai naa pa kai room for upgrade, and then mka benifit dayun ka sa advantage sa dual

Bro a Dual Channel Memory 2x4GB is better than using a Single Channel Memory Module since your Motherboard supports Dual Channel Memory Architecture. In fact, around 10%-20% would be the difference of the performance. If you are planning to upgrade to 16GB of Memory then just add one 8GB matching to the same memory you have. But 16GB wouldn't be so useful if you are just on gaming. If I were you, trading his 2x4gb it's just 1333Mhz and yours is 1600Mhz but it's still up to you, so I'd rather purchase another 8GB of RAM.

But if you want bro 2x8GB which is better just in case you'll upgrade to "maybe 32gb's" soon? since naa naman kay existing 2x8GB less nlng imong gastos palit nlng daun pod ka og another 2x8GB. Unlike if naa kay 2x4GB, which is not advantage, since mo palit kag 4x8GB mas gastos hinuon

kung naa man gani nay performance difference, gamay ra. mas prefer imo current 1x8gb aron naay future option to add another 8gb stick.

How could you pass up an opportunity to have a free performance upgrade? Dual channel 1333 is faster than single 1600, gamay man na or dagko. 1,000,001php is still more than 1,000,000php. Besides you could easily run any 1333 Ripjaws, labi na kay X pa na, @ 1600 or 1866.

Now you decide..

if it's me, I'd get the dual channel kit and overclock it to 1600. Overclocking at that speed is easy as ABC especially if it's ripjaws.
