Recently I bought an Acer Predator g9-593 (i7 6700hq), 1x8 GB ddr4 (2133 MHz) and I want to upgrade my RAM with another 8gb.

The motherboard has 4 slots for ram (up to 64gb) and as you can see in the image above, the used slot (#1) is in the other side of the motherboard (asking, I don't know).

This is what aida64 gives me:

So in order to upgrade my ram, I need one sodimm ddr4 8gb 2133 mhz cl 15 with 1.2v. Having these informations I still have questions:

1. What manufacturer should I choose? My local store doesn't have this type of ram (hynix). I can choose between: Crucial, Kingston, Corsair, Patriot.
2. In which slot should I stick the ram? Will it work in dual channel mode if I put in one of the available sockets from the front of the motherboard or should I disassemble the whole laptop?

As you can see (image below) it says it's plugged in socket channel A:
