It can happen to any brand, any amount of money.
And RAM is RAM. Just because it costs more doesn't mean its better.

For the sake of simplicity, yes it's "doubled".
Run in dual channel mode.

I'll help a little.
The memory slots are 64bits wide. When you have two installed correctly, you have a 128bit wide data bus.
This allows the CPU to read from 1 stick while writing to the other.
You have 4 slots on the motherboard because the CPU has (2) two Integrated Memory Controllers (IMC).

Looks like that GPU supports "shared memory". It is probably set to automatic, and increased when the total RAM available increased. Check the GeForce control panel and see if you can disable the shared memory option. Given the limited processing power of that GPU, allocating more memory past what it has onboard is kind of silly.
