Hey guys I am just cleaning up my PC and I want to test my memory to see if its all healthy, I already tested my CPU so I just want to make sure on this. I have been doing research on testing RAM with Memtest but I don't know how to use it and get it to work, I have downloaded what I needed from the site and I don't know what to do from there, I am using a USB most tutorials people are using discs, can anyone provide some step by step procedures? thanks.

Motherboard: ASUS MAXIMUS VI HERO 1150 z87
Ram: 8GB Corsair Vengeance Pro @ 1866

Memtest doesn't stress test the memory, it checks for errors or what we can call 'bad sectors' of memory.
Anyways, to create bootable USB Memtest drive:
IMP: backup the files on your USB before going ahead.
Extract the files,
Run imageUSB,
select USB drive from top panel,
Click on PassMarkHome,
It'll burn the image of memtest on USB to make it bootable.
eject safely.
restart your PC
go to boot menu
choose boot from USB,
follow on-screen instructions.
Hope this helps :)
