So I upgraded from 8GB to 16GB today and after a few hours of use, I BSOD and get PFN_LIST_CORRUPT
I have a M5A97 R2.0 with a FX-6300 overclocked to 4.0 ghz with a 212 evo.
I ran Prime95 afterwards and I was getting rounding errors..

Some information while running Prime95

PFS_LIST_CORRUPT is one of the BSOD messages that indicates memory corruption is occurring. So I'd wager you have either a bad stick of RAM, the RAM settings are off in the BIOS, or the motherboard isn't able to drive the sticks properly.

Test each stick of RAM with memtest86+ and see which one is failing. If they all pass, then I'd wager the motherboard is the likely culprit. [Yes, I've seen Mobos utterly fail at driving some 4-stick RAM configs with REALLY aggressive timings]. I'd suspect bad RAM though.

I ran memtest86+ for 8 hours and both sticks passed. I think it was the bios settings. I've taken off the overclock for now and It seems to be going fine so I'm not particularly sure what to do about overclocking. Does anyone know if I have to increase ram voltage or anything?

I have the same issue, but i cant change the voltage or anything in the BIOS, for RAM i can only choose an XMP profile which bumps up my single 1333mHz stick to 1600mHz
