I was starting to notice signs of bad memory so i ran windows memory diagnostic with quad channel and it failed. I tested each stick individually and those tests all passed. I tested them in a variety of different dual channel configurations and they passed as well. Once i put every stick back in and tested on quad channel it proceeded to fail. Seems to be more of an issue with the motherboard than the actual ram yes?

Thoughts?

Started with a few BSODs (Driver overran stack buffer, rdr file system, Bad Pool Header) that were all triggered by ntoskrnl.exe.
Then i noticed as i was restoring databases once they neared completion my PC would lock up until the restore finished.
Visual Studio debugging gets slower and slower the longer it runs and eventually crashes, Chrome crashes pretty consistently if i have SQL Server management studio or VS open and actively working.
The other day i took a database backup and tried to restore and it was corrupt, which had never happened.

What chipset?
Did you tried flash BIOS?
Have you tried the other Quad channel?

Pretty sure they don't run quad channel then.
Just 2x dual channel.

Intriguing, wonder why 2x dual fails then but 2 sticks in each channel separately work fine.

As for the kit: Intel DP67DE and Mushkin 32GB RAM
