it doesn't matter that much,
if the sets don't play nice you would of had issues 2 years ago probably when you put them in.
its VERY unlikely an issue just arose now 2 years later.

Doesn't hurt to try with just one set.

Instead of wasting 1000 hours on Ram testing just pick up 2 new 4GB sticks or even 1 4GB and see if the problem is solved. RAM isnt THAT expensive.

If I had to guess, its your HDD.

So if we just assume it's the HDD.
Is it always the windows HDD that's the cause, or can it also be storage hdd's?

First things first. An SSD is an SSD and a hard drive is an HDD. SSD = Solid State Drive, and HDD = Hard Disk Drive.

Like I said before.. just physically unhook the hard drive, to eliminate that as a possibility.

Physically clean all the dust on the hardware, so it looks like new parts.
Format and do a clean install of Windows 10, the motherboard and the GPU drivers.

Then you can test the RAM by just removing a stick, trying different slots, trying it with just the other stick, in different slots, etc.


Also, is that power supply from a previous build? Or was it new with your current build?






/e Just unhook the HDD, and run AIDA64 Extreme's System Stability Test. It will help you isolate the cause of the problem.





Like this will allow you to monitor the power supply voltages, under load... for example.











/ee Here, I just ran the System Stability Test for 10 mins. You can see the changes between the minimum and the maximum values. I also put the On Screen Display on top of the pic, so you can see the temps.

As i said in my first post, i already did a clean install Ghot

I will look over your msg in private, and see where it takes me.
Also the parts are being cleaned regularily.

The power supply is new with the motherboard and cpu i think.
Well, not new, but i wouldn't say too old either.

Yeah, I would run the AIDA64 Stability Test. As stress tests go, it not that hard, so it won't harm anything. But we may see something on the Statistics tab that will help.

Ok, did the stability test, that Ghot send me.

Nothing out of the ordinary.
