Our preferred memory stress test
Google stressapp test via Linux Mint (or another compatible Linux disti) is the best memory stress test available. Google use this stress test to evaluate memory stability of their servers – nothing more needs to be said about how valid that makes this as a stress test tool.
Install Linux Mint from here: http://www.linuxmint.com/download.php
Install the Google Stress App test from here:
http://community.linuxmint.com/softw.../stressapptest
Once installed open “Terminal” and type the following:
stressapptest -W -s 3600
This will run the stressapp for one hour. The test will log any errors as it runs. This test is more stringent than Memtest for DOS, Memtest for Windows and any other memory test we have used so far.

Hi Raja,
What is your/ASUS opinion on HCI Design MemTest (http://hcidesign.com/memtest/)? The people over at overclock.net swear by this tool. If you purchase it, as I recently did, you can run it from a boot USB/CD. Otherwise you have to run it from within Windows.
Thank you.

I always tested RAM with Memtst86 from DOS.
Over night always, at least 10h.
Where can I find instructions for HCI Memtest, and how many Windows I need to open to test in same time?Last edited by Vlada011; 08-25-2016 at 05:42 AM.

It means it's about to perform a power spike test. You can disable/adjust the pause.
