Does it matter if RAM is "Designed for Dual Channel" or "Dual Channel" if I want to use it as dual channel in my NF7-S?
 
it doesnt have to be "designed for" so to speak.. just make sure its the same size sticks. same speed and timings arent that important, but it will only run as high as the lowest stick goes. having the same brand is also very nice but not required
 
You don't need RAM specially marked Dual Channel, that's just a marketing kind of thing.

Some manufacturers sell matched pair DIMMs, which are memory modules sold in pairs that were tested in pairs to ensure they'd work find in dual channel.

However, the general requirements for using dual channel are what fallsincluded stated.

Same size memory modules, and same company and make are generally preferred, but not overly important.
