Thanks in advance!!
You can do two sticks. Reviews from the i7-920 era showed small differences between dual channel and tri-channel modes. You might just consider getting three sticks now since DDR3 memory will probably get scarcer and scarcer over time, making it difficult to add more memory if you find you need it later on.
