  • Tested new RAM after getting BSODs and got errors

    Hi,

    I tested my new RAM modules because I have been recently getting BSODs and freezes randomly and as expected, the test failed. What should I do next? Should I return the RAM immediately or bother with more testing with each stick? Can these errors be caused by MB or CPU? Thank you.

    Looks like the RAM is bad,
    See,
    https://www.memtest86.com/troubleshooting.htm

    It is up to you to decide what you do about it. I don't know how much time you have.or how important the PC is to you.
