    Potential RAM problem, RMA?

    Well as you might be able to figure out from my sig, I fold. I have been running a VM for f@h for a while now for my i7, and have noticed that my computer will consistently crash after several days of folding. Originally I thought it was my overclock; but I lowered back down to stock and the same problem happens. Every single time...

    Pretty sure it's not the video card, tested that thoroughly with Furmark and other stuff already. Also measured each rail of my PSU individually with a DMM, all rails are fine on idle/load.


    My question is, is that enough to prove to OCZ that it's my RAM, and file for an RMA?

    Furmark doesn't always catch everything, I can run FurMark for hours @ 820/1130 on my sig card (4850 @ 800/2115)
    Then I run just a simple 3DMark06 run and it crashes.

    It's hilarious, lol...

    Until you run not overclocked that's both comp & vid card/cards... run everything at stock and still it happens then run mem test , you don't really have a foot to stand on

    I am shure OCZ would want you to at least run (dos) Mem Test ....

    It's a great company if your ram is bad there is No problem RMA'ing it ....

    Yeah I went back to stock. I ran memtest but I think I had the timings loose, like 9-9-9-27; I'll run it again tonight with the spec'd ones...
