it has 2 dim slots so i was wondering if quad channel ram sticks are gonna work here ( like 2x8gb) where the 8gb sticks are quad channel ?

Nahhh. Duel channel is plenty. Also there is no such thing as duel channel or quad channel RAM. The motherboard you buy decides the data rate. If the motherboard has 8 slots, it's quad channel. 4, duel channel. If you're gaming I suggest you buy two sticks. 2x4GB so they run in dual channel mode doubling the available bandwidth.

The Site says quad channel as in the fast that the ram stick supports quad channel, which is a bit confusing for it to be in the title. I would recommend you buy 2x4GB Sticks, or if you think you might upgrade to 16GB later on, just get 1x8GB now.

Yep! Your board supports 16GB.

Yeah 2x8GB is absolutely fine.
