Can I run dual channel?

I currently have a gskill 8gb 2400mhz https://www.gskill.com/product/165/185/1535967723/F4-2400C15S-8GISAegis-DDR4DDR4-2400MHz-CL15-15-15-35-1.20V8GB-(1x8GB) this model to be exact. I would like to buy another 8gb to run dual channel mode but the exact ram that I have is not available anywhere in my country right now.

I've been planning on buying a HyperX Fury 8gb with the same speed of 2400mhz. Will my pc support dual channel mode with different ram sticks? My mobo is asus prime a320m-k. Thanks!!

I believe it will work, as long as both sticks are at the same frequency and both sticks are compatible with your motherboard.

Depends on the motherboard's memory support. In theory yes, although it is usually recommended to use the same pairs for that. You may actually get even better performance out of getting faster memory altogether, so maybe a 2x16 kit 3200. If money is tight you can try it your way but make sure you are running the latest stable bios on your motherboard.
