Should I get 1x8GB or 2x4GB? Does it even support dual channel?

i recommend single because later you can upgrade to 16gb. The dual channel depends on your cpu

Remember to quote me (or someone else), otherwise we won't going to recieve your answers...

If you're a person who games, watch YouTube videos, stream p*rns, while listening to music music, go with the single stick to later upgrade it if want to stream more animal p*rns simultaneously. But if you're content with 8gb and doesn't do much multitasking, go with thw 2x4gb. The Ram's speed is very minimal, really.

I1d get 1x8GB so you can add another later. Don't worry about dual channel performance if your computer isn't a workstation.
