ILikeLSU helped me put together a super simple and cheap surfing build for a friend of mine which includes an APU. We initially put 2x2 of gskill 1600, but I noticed that the price went up today. They had a 1x4 1866 gskill for $40. I know APUs favor faster speeds. Does the benefit of dual channel outweigh the faster speed? I have heard dual channel doesn't make that much difference. Either way the guy isn't gaming so it probably won't matter, but I wanted to get the guy the best bang for the buck.
In his case, it won't make a difference. I selected literally the cheapest RAM on PCPartpicker at the time, and it just happened to be that decent GSkill kit.
