In general you want 2x4 rather than 1x8 to benefit from dual channel. RAM running in dual channel has double the bandwidth (so it's basically equivalent to 2666 MHz vs 1866 MHz)

Motherboard: ga a75m s2v

CPU : A6 3500

4x2 >>>>> 8x1 cause dual channel will allow the cpu to run at its full potential, single channel completely cripples cpu performance so always stay away from single channel aka 1 stick
