    Testing RAM cards

    Alright I'm like 90% sure one of my ram cards have failed, so I figure ill upgrade a bit but I dont want to replace all 4 cards. But I have a problem how do I know which of the RAM cards have failed so I can swap out the correct ones. Also anything needed to know when buying RAM last time I did it I just bought 8gb of RAM and put em in.

    As always any and all help is appreciated.

    get memtest. I think you can download an ISO image, burn it and boot it. You can tell it how to run various tests and for how long

          boot with one DIMM at a time and test it. If you don't see any failures, try the next one. Rinse and repeat. Eventually you should start seeing failures.
