I currently have Kingston HyperX FURY Black 8GB 2133MHz DDR4 (2 Sticks) installed and wanted to upgrade to 16GB of ram. Running on Windows x64 with a MSI B150 m3 motherboard. I plan on getting the exact same sticks ram, but wanted to know if it was better to get either another 2 stick kit of 8GB or just one stick of 8GB. (or if it even works this way) Preferably as cost effective as possible.

Thanks!

A single stick will leave you more work rather than buying a 2x8GB, since its running in the same dual channel. Sometimes running dual channel and a single channel ram together will make things complicated

So going with the 2 stick option is better i suppose?

Exactly if you noticed buying a two stick kit will save you just a tiny bit more money, and keeping things very simple as well
