Which ram to go with 5950x

Funny enough I upgraded from 16GB to 32GB and my 3dmark score went from 14k to nearly 15k time spy cpu. 10900k This is with all RAM slots full.

Using a 5950X?

Why not go with 2x16GB? I heard that dual channel is supposed to work best on Ryzen over Quad.

If I fill all my slots with single ranked dimms I get an increase in performance. My maximum ram speed drops to 3600MT/s but its like the system is DR (dual ranked https://techlibrary.hpe.com/docs/iss/DL380pGen8/setup_install/advanced/Content/138678.htm) now. The timings are still cl14 but they wont go lower. So the primary stats on the 8-packed RAM are as far as things will go. THe latency is higher 45ns increases to 48ns but time spy cpu has gone up by 900-1000 points. So stock on my RAM is decent. 14-15-15-36 CR2 @1.45 volts. Cache is still default auto of 4.3GHz, the RAM timings are as xmp. 10900k is 5Gz SSE and 4.9GHz avx.

So basically I got lots of time spy cpu points and all I did was fill two DIMM slots (all ram slots full). All settings as per the 8-pack 5GHz OC bundle which I got for the warranty and lack of issues.
