RAM issue?

jtx

Hey guys, been experiencing a lot of crashes recently, specially while playing Warzone. I first tried uninstalling the game from my SSD and install it on my HDD but it kept occurring. I then downloaded memtest86 to check my RAM and got the below errors while booting the PC after doing the memtest and in the memtest itself i got an error as well. does this mean my RAM is busted? Thanks in advance

Blue screens and errors:

Memtest is very very good at finding errors in RAM. If it says that stick is bad, it's bad. By point of reference, memory manufacturers will accept a failed MemTest result as a reason to RMA their RAM.

 

So, start with that.

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

Thank you!

I have already spoken with the company i bought them from and they will send me news ones which is great news, the only thing i was worried about if it's actually the RAM slots and not the RAM sticks itself but i am not sure if Memtest would give an error if the RAM slots are faulty? i think it only gives you an error if there's something wrong with the sticks?

If the RAM is seen by the slots, then the RAM itself is bad, not the slots. There is no test for checking for defective RAM slots, other than the system won't see a stick in said slot.

Makes sense, and as seen in the Memtest image, it does recognize all 32gb's so it has to be the RAM itself!

Thank you very much!
