It's hard to run memtest when the system refuses to boot with the stick
in question.

You should get comparable memory bandwidth with 2 sticks or 4 on consumer
grade systems. The differences are minor.

If you need to know which stick is bad memtest will tell you.

[FFmpeg-devel] Temporary delays in patch reviewing and testing by me

2023-12-20 Thread Michael Niedermayer
Hi all

My main development machiene died today, so expect increased delays
about things that involve me/it until thats fixed

Rest of the mail is just about the issue, and you can skip reading that

Timeline:
box suddenly stopped, no reaction to any input or pings
power off and on did not bring it back, screen stayed dark, keyboard too
but fans spin up and theres power
opening it up i find it stuck on Q-code "0d" so i power it off
wiggle the ram modules a bit power it back on and it gets stuck on
qcode "15" i power cycle again and it reaches bios setup, so i go over all
values and just look but as i look, it hangs hard again
off/on again and we hit "0d" again
so i remove one of the CPU fans to get to the DIMM modules and reconfigure them 
like this:
B1A1 0+2 -> boot ok
B2A2 0+2 -> boot ok
B2A2 1+3 -> 0d
B2A2 0+3 -> boot ok
B1A1 1+2 -> 0d

This is consistent with DIMM module 1 being faulty. But iam not 100% convinced
because this box never crashed not once, it was always rock solid and suddenly
one module is so faulty the box hangs so early.
Either way i ordered 4 new and bigger modules from 2 independant shops
they should be here soon but i dont know what "soon" is around christmess

also i could try running it with just 2 modules, i might try that
tomorrow

RAM modules are: G.Skill Trident Z F4-3600C15D-16GTZ DDr4-3600 CL15-15-15 1.35v 
8Gb manufaturing date 2019 Dec
MOBO is: ASUS ROG STRIX X570-E Gaming

PS: i could have gotten the modules quicker but i was trying to get
4x16gb to double the 4x8gb and have them not slower. And it seems that
constrains me to 2-3days waiting at quickest.

PS2: The faulty module looks perfectly fine and all look suprisingly clean

thx
