In my ongoing research the newer mother boards for Broadwell are DDR4 (quad channel) while Skylake is dual channel. Is there any advantage of one over the other?
I understand they have to be purchased or installed in pairs...Quad channel ram of 16gig would be 4 sticks of 4 gig while dual channel would be 2 sticks of 8.
I also have my eye on these coming up late next year...

6 core Skylakes with clocks at 4-4.3ghz sound rather promising...
