first step is stop listening to the consumerist faggots typically found in /g/.
so go ahead and buy ram without the meme heat spreaders.
2nd, like >>1210234 said, buy higher capacity ram to replace lower capacity.
3rd, research the computer you plan to buy/build and take upgrades into consideration

Crucial.com will run a scan on your computer and tell you exactly what flavor of ram you need and how much you can install. Their prices and reliability are second to none.
Solder wires between two sticks of ram, and then splice each wire at the middle and solder on another set of wires to the corresponding spot on the motherboard. Should give you a two-in-one
