AFAIK this is better. You should run al least 1000% coverage.

Yeah, this is way better. Memtest86 can run for hours in situations where this will fail in minutes.

The only issue is that it can't scan all your memory, meaning the memory being used by your OS won't be scanned....thats where Memtest86+ is good.

Both tools together should assure an error free and stable system.

Just in time as I suspect my -second- pair of D9 succumbing to failure. They aren't even being pushed hard and always cool to the touch. Time to buy a backup pair..

I am running a heavily overclocked system, although the RAM is running at speeds and timings under spec at the moment (5-5-5-15). I received an error when running two instances of Memtest, can I be certain that this is the RAM instead of the memory controller (or any other part) of the CPU or some weakness on the motherboard?
