Memtest86 errors what do they mean?

[Red Harbinger]

Hey guys for a while now my computer has been crashing in game and keep getting some windows error, didnt really bother me that much but its happening all the time now. So i tried memtest86 and got back 2 errors after going through the test twice, however im not sure what they mean i looked at the html file but still not sure. Here is a pic of the results, not sure if its my ram or my cpu??? any help would be greatly appreciated.

also the ram is corsair vengeance 2133 cl9, i have had promblems trying to overclock it in the past, and currently i had it running at 1866 so i just dropped it down to 1333 could that have been the error?

I'm pretty sure it means your memory isn't stable since it's giving you errors.

k but im wondering if it is the ram since the error says cpu, also if it needs to be replaced

I had 1 error on my RAM but I've yet to ever encounter a problem with mine.

I'm pretty sure that's just referencing core 0 of your CPU which was running during the error. I'm not 100% sure that it's a RAM error, but it probably is. It's definitely something you should look into though because RAM instability isn't a good thing. If I were you I'd just leave my RAM at whatever speeds, latencies, and voltages they were supposed to run at.

Do you have another computer you can pull ram from? Or just have another stick or two?　Try that and see if you get the same codes.

i dont have any other ram. How do i make sure that it is the ram before i go through the hassle of replacing it

Depending on how many sticks you have, you should start with the basics. Remove all but one and run your game with min settings and see if it crashes. If it does try another ram slot on your motherboard. Once you try all slotsand if it does the same thing try another memory stick and repeat. Your trying to see if it's either your memory or your mobo.
