    G.skill HZ Memtest Error - puzzled

    Well I was doing little bit experiments otherwise I am completely stable at 10x250 vcore:1.595 / vdimm:2.6.

    What I did last night is try to use vdimm: 2.5 rather than 2.6. Here is the screen shot after 11 complete passes (almost 7 hours):




    Do you think it is a "random" error? Error in test #6 in pass 3, and after that 8 more complete passes with no errors - puzzled definitely...

    I left my machine for a 9-hour prime marathon - I will check it out later tonight. In the meantime, I would appreciate any comments...

    BTW:
    @g.skill technician: If you have some settings that is 260+ (prime stable) can you post some of them here.

    This can be an heat issue. Is the heatspreader hot after 6 hours memtest?

    Thanks for the reply. It might be heat - I didn't check the heatspreaders honestly (My brain just stops in the mornings).

    Update: When I came home yesterday found out that core#0 crapped out after 7 hours of prime and I stopped myself core#1 around 9 hours. I am positive that "core #0 errorred out due to vcore (not enough juice) rather than vdimm - my core#0 really sucks.

    Yesterday I got an old inwin Q500 server case and a new delta fan (130 cfm) - load temps case open: 39-40 (1.6 vcore), load temps case closed: 43-44. Tonight I will test the ram again by using a lower multiplier (8x250 vdimm:2.5)...

    please please test it under windows memtest not dos memtest86!

    1st without driver, amd CPU MC might not work properly
    2nd even with memtest86 stable, i can not gurantee windows stable!
    3rd we don't use DOS as OS anymore.
