Asus Studiobook 16 H7604JI does it matter if ram is dual or not these days?

Hi, I am thinking of getting this laptop, basic specs are

Intel i9-13980HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Windows 11​

From what i can find on this laptop, it seems like it's 1 ram stick. Does ram being dual not really make much odds these days? I haven't bought a new laptop for a while, so not sure if it still matters as such.
If they are still better in dual mode, it's odd they would opt to create a pretty expensive laptop with just single stick if it would be faster with 2 x 16gb.

I also wondered if anhyone knows this laptop is pretty quiet? if its in balanced mode and I am just browsing the net, or doing general work, would it be very low noise?
Thanks

CPU have high clock speed when Finnish executing instructions from RAM the CPU needs new instruction in its pipeline for it not to wait RAM controller to deliver new instruction that is where multichannel comes it allows delivery of more instructions at more speed.

@james_uk


Dual channel is faster than single channel.

I used to have a pic of benchmark results for the same RAM, run in single channel and in dual channel, showing the speed difference. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find it.

Ha! I finally found it.... (previous computer, ofc)

Dual channel is faster, by definition.

Whether you'd notice outside of benchmarks is another thing.

Maybe Asus saves a dollar by using a single DIMM rather than a pair. ASUS ProArt Studiobook 16 OLED (H7604JI) | Memory RAM & SSD Upgrades | Crucial.com

I tend to take posts at face value.

If it really has 2 X 16GB, that's good
