You can use 1 to 8 ram modules, just read your mobo's manual for installation.

Some require you to use A1 and C2 others require you to start with C2 and then A2.

Yes will be fine.

Yes. But when you upgrade there may be issues running quad channel at the memory's advertised speed and timings. Worst case: you will end up running single channel at a lower speed. Best case: quad channel at advertised speed and timings with no BIOS fiddling.

depends on the motherboard and how much you want to spend...
