noob here asking for advice.

I am building a machine that requires a LGA 1150.

All mobos today has this Dual Channel. However, will it still operate with one stick of RAM?
 
Solution
yes you would loose a bit of performance (10-15%) compared to using two exact memory stick but it will work. It would be recommended to use 2 stick for optimal performance.
