Testing RAM

Post by ssjDoh »

What's a good program that will test my RAM (check for errors, etc)?
Fdisk?

Memtest

Absolutly the most complete memtest out there.. And if you contact Corsair they will tell you its the only test they will use to test their memory!

True, but be prepared to not use your PC for a while.

Prime95 is used to test your CPU/processor.

Yea, it is suggested to allow this program to run through the night. And dont worry, it will show every point that it detects errors.

Thanks, I'll give it a try tonight

I already ran Prime95 overnight, no problems there.
