What volts are you ruinning the RAM at?

I would suggest downloading and burning off a MemTest86+ boot disc for testing the RAM

I meant run memtest whilst your finding the tightest settings, saves booting into windows to see if their stable.

Up the voltage a tad and see if you can tighten those timings up a bit.

I'd suggest aiming a fan at them full time if you're tightening timings and stuff
