Hello everyone,
I having this issue for 8 months now. When i play certain games my pc restars with a message: "Asus anti surge was triggered due to psu blabalabla". So i tried to solve the problem and i bought a new psu , i installed it and i still have the same problem. I disabled asus anti surge protection and now i'm getting 1 long and 3 short beeps : Memory test failure: A fault has been detected in memory above 64KB. I'm dont know what's the problem :/

Specs:
Asus A88X-Gamer Motherboard
Amd Athlon x4 860k 3,7Ghz
2x4Gb Kingston HyperX 1866 mhz
Asus Strix RX 470 4gb
Old Psu Corsair CX 430m 430W 80+Bronze
New Psu Evga 500b 500W 80+Bronze

If memtest runs fine in your first two slots, your ram is OK.

If you are truly having surge problems, then it is in your power environment.
If you have an unstable power source, you can buy a UPS that will condition the power and let you ride through power blips.
Look to APC for info on sizing.

Memtest86+ is the gold standard for testing ram.
You should be able to complete a full pass with NO errors.

If you encounter an error, test each stick individually to identify the bad stick.
Then, use the good stick and test in each ram slot to eliminate the possibility of a bad motherboard ram slot.
