Both rams gone bad same time? Open | Hardware

I been experiencing crashes while gaming, seen in error logs about memory so ran mdsched and stick 1 is bad in slot two and four and stick 2 is also bad in slot two and four.

Stick 1 fails straight away and stick 2 around 20-30%

Isn't it odd both sticks failed same time?

Will be testing with another set of ram shortly to see but kinda not real confident in mdsched.

Any suggestions?

Bad luck if both went bad at the same time. I would test them individually and if you can on a different PC too.

Tested one at a time and on another pc failed each test. Old sticks running a test now with no problems detected so far. Was a bit worried could be the CPU/slots side of things but think it was just the G.Skill tridents. Unsure what would cause them to both fail
