MemTest in Motherboard BIOS/UEFI?

[Karsten75]

I recently recommended to someone that they run Memtest86+ to exclude RAM from probably failure causes.

After some to-and-fro, it turns out the most recent versions of Memtest_ is on Passmark site:

Wikipedia has an interesting article, but the part that caught my eye was this:

Additionally, some high-end computer motherboards come with MemTest86 integrated into the BIOS. The user runs Memtest86 by pressing a certain key during boot.

Anyone ever came across a motherboard with this feature?

Yes I had a Biostar 965 series that had this in it. Wouldn't say it was high end by any means.

Memtest86+ last update was Sep 2013. Memtest86+ is no longer actively maintained. It doesn't have support for some UEFI and newer model motherboard features.

The preferred memory tester today has a different com link, not the org link.
