How to check if RAM is stable?

[GAME 55]

Hi! I have a single stick of 8GB RAM (Kingston HyperX Fury DDR4-3200MHz 1x8GB)

 

And I wanted to overclock at at least so I can get better performance. How do I check if RAM is stable when I overclock?

Just run MemTest86 on it for a while. In general, you just need to stress the RAM to determine if it's stable or not.

 

However, I wouldn't expect miracles here. Your single greatest hit to performance here is not running dual channel, by having only one stick. Whatever minute gains you might get from an OC or tightening the timings isn't going to amount to a hill of beans.

Unfortunately, I am not able to buy more RAM now. So I am trying to squeeze as much performance as I can from my existing hardware.

Thanks for your help!
