Right, after setting the speed to 2933 MHz as I mentioned earlier, I've now run single CPU and multithreading (1 pass each) successfully without any errors. (Yay!)

I'd like to make sure all is well with the CPU too, what's the best tool to test that? How about an overall hardware test (I'm running Win 10)?

Also, are there any potential issues updating BIOS to 4.40 at this stage? I noticed there was update available.

Oh, and why does MemTest86 report my memory so wrong? 2933 MHz at 15-17-17-35 vs 2133 MHz at 15-15-15-36.

Will prob still run a full 4 passes overnight to make sure it's all kosher. Thank you all for the help, feel more relieved now.

AIDA64 is a pretty thorough test and produces an extensive report. It's not free but you can evaluate it for 30 days, which causes some of the information in the report to be redacted.

I would avoid BIOS 4.40 as it is broken in many places. The beta 4.43 is much better, but as you're not using a Raven Ridge APU you might be better sticking with 3.60 for the time being.

Thanks JohnM, will stick to 3.60 for now.

Just to let people know, ran MemTest86 with 4 passes of full test with multithreading without a single error. Also ran IntelBurnTest with multiple stress levels and no issues.

Thanks again to everyone for the help! Handshake

Sounds like you're in a much happier place than when you started. Glad you got there.
