I'm changing my motherboard due to some issues with it, and this one upgrades from DDR3 to DDR4, so I've ordered a 8GB single stick, 2400MHz to go with this new motherboard (same as before, but it was dual stick) Is this going to be good enough to run dual monitors? The most I do at a time is Spotify, chrome browser with a video sometimes, and a game running at the same time. Some background processes here and then. Processor is good. But is this RAM going to allow me to have a smooth experience with all that going on?
 
If you're gaming then you should get dual-sticks for dual-channel. Single-channel is effectively cutting your memory bandwidth in half and at 1080p resolution gaming, you will typically see around 10% lower performance with single-channel compared to dual-channel.
