Running out of patience (10.8 + Z68X-UD3H-B3 F10 / i7 2600K).

May or may not be related (I type this with all toes and fingers crossed ha).

Had another crash in Chrome, quit before it could lock the OS. Checked Console and made a note of the error, googled and found a RAM error and a recommendation to run Memtest.

Burnt a DVD and ran it, ping, lots of errors on one stick off RAM.

Raised a case with Corsair who very kindly honoured an RMA despite it being just OOW, so that's now on it's way to Holland.

Down to 8GB from 16GB, but, so far so good if you follow me.

Hopefully Corsair will return two new sticks and things will continue to be steady...

UEFi update is a must, boots so fast, sleep and wake work so well, wake from Mouse and Keyboard and no USB errors, very very impressed.

Fingers crossed for the RAM.
 
Corsair kindly replaced the two sticks I returned to them (only one threw up any faults via MemTest).

In the 10 days the faulty stick was removed from the machine I have had zero issues.

New memory back in today, so far so good.

Not to JINX it but it looks like I've finally cracked it.

Bit of a school boy error not diagnosing the ram at the start but who cares now.

MemTest FTW.
