So I built a new PC about a month ago and right off the bat was getting constant BSOD's and other issues. After running memtest I found that my RAM was bad (Kingston Fury 8GB) so I sent it back to newegg for a replacement. In the meantime I bought 2 4GB sticks from Best Buy to hold me over and after running memtest on them 1 of the 2 produced errors. Since then I've been running on one of the 4GB sticks and had no problems. Today the replacement for the 8GB Fury arrived and after installing it and booting the computer I got a BSOD. I ran memtest on the new RAM and was immediately given thousands of errors.
So my question is: Am I just really unlucky and got 3 bad sticks of RAM out of 4, or am I doing something wrong? I haven't tried making any sort of adjustments to the RAM through BIOS or anything because I really don't know that much about it. Could that be an issue? I'm really not all that experienced here so any help is greatly appreciated.
