How do you guys check to see if your memory is faulty?

 

At work I was told to use memtest86 but  I've just noticed some inconsistencies depending on how I boot onto it.

That's my concern. My mobo gave me the option to boot in an uefi USB mode and a generic USB mode. When in uefi I got errors, in generic I didn't. This is with brand new ram.
