I recently bought a new gaming laptop that comes with a single Ripjaws 16Gb stick. I've heard that having dual channel memory can actually boost your performance by about 7% or higher.
I'm thinking of adding a 4Gb stick of the same brand and specs for about $30. Would this be worth it?
(By the way, keep in mind that this gaming laptop has an i7-6700HQ which will only support RAM speeds of 2133MHz since that is all it will recognize. Although the 16Gb stick is 2400MHz, it's running @ 2133MHz.)

4 Gb Stick for dual-channel upgrade: https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-Ripjaws
