I already have 8 gb ram on my pc (2x4GB sticks) and I might add more, probably double it to 16 gb but can i add 1 8gb stick instead 2 4gb sticks? i want to keep one ram slot open in case i decide to add even more. also, this is ddr3 ram if that helps.

heres my motherboard if you need compatibility stuff: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/H97PLUS/

You can do that, but I wouldn't. It would be better to install 2 sticks of the same speed (prefer same brand as well) to increase your memory. RAM tends to work better in pairs.
