    Hey people, need some advice here.

    I just got the g51jx-x1 and its specs say it can run 8gb ram.

    well so far i have tried the kingston hyperx ddr3 1333 and patriot stock ram...
    the hyperx was cas 7 and patriot was cas9

    I was having bsod issues so one of my tests was memtest.

    when I scan with memtest with all 8 gigs I get errors on 1st pass test #5 and #8

    but when I scan with memtest with 2gb or 4gb its fine.

    does anyone have any advice? or is running successfully 8gb of ram?


    thanks
