Unsupported RAM or supported?

[Slayingimmortal]

I have been having memory management bsod and have scanne dmy ram to make sure its good which it is. I have Crucial 8gb 1600 mhz ram and upon looking up my FM2A68M-HD+ does not seem to have it in the website as supported ram but with the crucial scanner it is.. should i buy kingston 8 gb single ram or is it really supported like crucial says?

How did you scan your memory? Did you run mdsched.exe?

Do you have two sticks of 4GB or one stick of 8GB? If you're using more than one stick, were they part of a kit or were they separate? Buying two of the same sticks at the same time counts as them being separate, unless they were packaged as a kit.

I would run mdsched.exe to test if your unit is possibly faulty.

Please press Win+R to open Run, type in mdsched.exe and press Enter. A window should open, asking permission to restart so it can run a memory test at startup, save any open documents and hit Restart now.

memtest86+ is the gold standard for ram testing.
You should be able to get a couple of full passes without any errors.

If that fails, contact Crucial for support if their selection app said the ram was compatible.

Also, look for any bios updated for your motherboard that might fix ram issues.

DO NOT update the bios on speculation; a failed bios update can brick your motherboard.

A UDIMM is an Unregistered DIMM, it's compatible.
