    Memtest 86: 4 passes or 8?


    I'm trying to troubleshoot some issues with my computer.

    I've ran Memtest86 with 4 passes and zero errors.

    My RAM is 3600mHz CL16 16Gb (2x8Gb).

    Should I do 8 passes when I get home from work or would that be unnecessary?

    :)

    Memtest 86: 4 passes or 8?

    Constant BSOD with different stop codes

    There are two companies with software that has a similar name.

    Memtest 86+ version 5.01 we use to test DDR3 RAM for 8 or more passes.
    The latest update was 09/27/2013
    DDR4 became available in 2014.

    Memtest 86 version 8.2 we use to test DDR4 RAM for 8 passes but this requires 2 tests of 4 passes each to make 8 passes.
    The free edition was changed in January 2019 to have only 4 passes.
    The pay edition can perform 8 continuous passes.
    A substantial portion of the testing can be performed overnight.
