Windows 10: How to test RAM in Windows 11

​

RAM (Random Access Memory) is a crucial hardware component in a computer. It temporarily holds the data processed by the CPU. Hence, it is one of the hardware components responsible for a computer’s performance. Faulty RAM affects a computer’s performance. In this case, the computer shows some signs that you should not ignore. If you […]

Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

Here's a quick laundry list:

List of software to use for overclocking and testing
Examples:
Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

 RAM TEST

I've had a few more BSODs, however when I went to create the usual dm log, I noticed it say there were no minidumps. My computer did recently update to Fall Creators, and I don't have the 'Disable automatic deletion of memory dumps when disk space is low' ticked, but the drive isn't even half full.

Anyways, I'm going to try some more troubleshooting steps and wanted to run them by the thread before actually doing them:
- Re-seat graphics card and memory. Already done today, will be doing a test (aka, normal nightly gaming) to see if it crashes.
- Move a crash-prone game to third hard drive and unplug current
- Swap out my 1080 for my old 750TI I still have lying around
- Buy a single 16GB DDR4 RAM stick and use that in a different slot. Unfortunately my cooler covers one of the memory slots, so I can have a max of 3 sticks. If nothing else, I'm upgrading to 32GB of RAM =P Probably last test b/c it involves spending money
- Reinstall Windows

Anyone have a suggested order I should attempt these in? I'm thinking next step is probably either install on third drive and unplug second, or swap graphics cards

 

Little help with Ram?

I personally would never buy RAM on Craigslist unless I personally new the seller.

To know if RAM will work with your motherboard, the best place to look is on your motherboard's website at the RAM QVL. The QVL lists RAM the maker has tested and verifies will work with your specific board. There are too many RAM makers and models for them to test them all so you don't have to buy listed RAM, but do need to buy RAM with the same specs as listed RAM and I don't see any 11-11-11-27 listed RAM.
