Planning to build one desktop mainly for Virtualization.
Below is what i am planning which fits in my budget.
i7-4770
Gigabyte GA-H97M-D3H
Corsair 650W PSU
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO Intel CPU Cooler
Corsair Vengeance DDR3
CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10 (1 x 8 GB) or CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 (2x4) ?

Few queries .
Which is better for RAM 1x8 or 2x4 in terms of future expansion to 16GB/24GB ,not bothered about speed but should be able to spawn more VMs

Which one is better MB : GA-H97M-D3H or GA-Z97M-D3H ?
Not sure 'H' and 'Z' stands for here.

Do i need a 650W PSU ? Don't have any high end graphics card (not planning for gaming).

Any suggestions to reduce cost , so that i can spend more on RAM

Thanks,
Agnel.
