Is 2 x 8gb ram better than 1 x 16gb? Speccing a new laptop, mostly to be used for photo editing (Lightroom or Luminar 4, rather than full bore Photoshop) I imagine 16gb will be plenty sufficient, so unlikely to add more in the future.
2x 8Gb will be better/faster because it can run in dual channel mode if the motherboard supports it.
The difference is not noticeable though.
Thanks, confirms my thoughts
