Ok. So I do not know whether to get 1x8gb of ram now or 2x4gb. I was originally going to go for the 2x4gb. However I came across a newegg combo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.1727854 that made it cheaper than what I was planning to buy: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/gzddrH
It's only a $10 difference but it got me thinking because I wanted to go 16gb in the future if possible. So I was wondering whether 2x8gb is better than 4x4 gb. Also would like to know if there's any huge difference between the mobos too as I plan to oc in the future. I'll just post my questions again below so that they're easier to track.
QUESTIONS:
1) Should I get 1x8 gb or 2x4 gb now if I plan to get more ram sticks in the future for 16 gb ram? (4x4 vs 2x8)
2) Is there a big performance difference between the two setups?
3) I know this is a memory thread, but which motherboard is better? (In terms of upgradability and OC)
Thanks in advance for helping. Sorry if it seems really sloppy/unclear title. I'm on mobile right now and for some reason my brain doesn't work as good as it does when I'm on pc.
