RAM upgrade question

[archspace]

---

Q1: I want to add RAM sticks to my pc. It has 2x2 (4g) at the moment. I want to add 8 gig more(or 4 gig ram). So it is 12 gig in total. What kind of 8 gig ram (or 4gig ram) should I buy? A 2x4 kit or a single 8 gig ram?(also 4 gig ram)

Q2: Should I buy the same make and model as my first 4 gig or it won't matter? I currently have a Corsair but I want to get a Kingston since its cheaper.

Q3: Follow-up question, will 8 gig ram be more than enough for gaming? I was thinking of spending wisely rather than just buying for the sake of the numbers. I don't play high end games like crysis or metro. Just rpg games like batman, d3, dragon age,etc. This pc is strictly for gaming. No other special task.

My specs for reference:
i7 3820
asus p9x79 deluxe
4 gig corsair ram (2x2 kit)
gtx 780

Please advise on how I go about this purchase. Thanks in advance.

btw dli ko mo dula anang COD. puol man gud. dli ko gnahan og FPS.

8GB is enough for gaming, para ma populate nimo ang quad channel then add another 2x2gb. .so 2x2gb + 2x2gb = 8GB which is enough for you since gaming raka
