What's next for stability testing?

Hi HF community!

Since i got my motherboard about a year ago from now. I have been having very very rare instability issues in-game and during light load usage. It has only been recently that I started analyzing BSOD dump files. Been using default settings for my hardware. No overclocking yet.


Right now I am doing stability testing on my RAM. I am nearing 8 passes while testing with memtest86. Should I go for 10 passes to be safe?

What should I be testing next? I think it should be the CPU and motherboard. If you agree, please let me know.

You should run memetest overnight ... say 8 hours. Hope this helps.

Uhm, it's been almost 24 hours. memtest86 takes a long ass time for 16gb ddr4 at 2133. I'm just asking about the 10 passes because I think i read somewhere that technicians call 10 passes the standard in refurbished goods.
