Hi After replacing the ram with a larger one, BSOD appears. Ram is tested in memtest and TestMem5. Ram runs on XMP 2666Mhz and is on the QVL list. It's Corsair CMK32GX4M2A2666C16, previous ram wasn't on QVL list and work just fine. BSODs from last to first:

I forgot about system specification: Asrock B460M-HDV Intel core i3-10400f Gigabyte 1660 Super 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance 2666Mhz CL16 SilentiumPC Vero L3 600W Win 10 64bit |

Increase the voltage to the ram. ------------- ASRock B450M Pro4 16 GB DDR4, 500 watt PS, AMD Ryzen-5 5600, NVidia GTX-1050, 5.70 BIOS |

Just got new one:
What voltage will be good for start testing stability ? 1.25 ? |

After change to 1.25V still got BSOD: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (1a) I will change the voltage to 1.3 and then try to disable XMP and set it to 2133Mhz, and if that doesn't help then I have no idea what to do next. |

First, this is the wrong forum, since you have an Intel CPU/Motherboard. But that's unlikely to be relevant for your particular question. Most memory test programs just walk patterns (including random data patterns), but are not good at testing timing issues, because that requires memory control to switch mode frequently in the most unusual timings. These tests are useful for defects in DRAM chips (stuck at 0 or 1), but not at finding timing issues. So I wouldn't consider "passing some memory test programs" as the final say in whether the DIMM is good. 2666MT/s isn't very fast in today's standard, and I see Corsair specs the DIMM at 1.2V. So if default XMP profile isn't reliable, I'd consider it a broken product, assuming it's installed correctly. It's DDR4, so you open the tab and just push down on the DIMM until it fully seats. No real need for "soft touches" like the newer DDR5 memory. Go back to normal XMP profile, run Prime95 or something, and my guess is that it'll get errors. And if it does fail, I'd just return it. |

| Prime 95, Blend test pass 2 hours with no errors, Large FFTs test pass 6 hours without errors. I tested 1.25V, 1.3V, AutoVoltage with no XMP 2133Mhz, nothing helped. I tried Driver Verifier, it didn't boot because: ene.sys, dtliteusbbus.sys, droidcam.sys. I deleted Daemon Tools, DroidCam, and the ene.sys file itself because I couldn't figure out what it was related to (Other forums say it's related to RGB control apps, which I never had installed) After all, Driver Verifier worked for ~ 11 hours and no blue screen so I turned it off hoping it might help. Two days later 2 blue screens: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (50), DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER (f7) |

For people with the same problem in the future, I sent the ram for warranty, the new one works fine. Memtest86, Testmem5 and the built-in windows tool didn't show any errors and the ram after warranty replacement with a new one works fine, so these tools don't show all errors. |
