Alright /g/ experiment is underway

I just bought 4x2gb 800 memory sticks from aliexpress for the grand total of 40$

I've got 2x2gb 667 corsair in my PC and Im running a memtest right now and when it completes I'll test the generic chinese sticks

If people are interested I'll post all results

I welcome any suggestions on how I test the memory, the command I ran was

>sudo memtester 1024 5
Which allocates 1024 mb of memory and runs the test 5 times
>>
sounds lit
>>
Cool? Why are you doing this anyway?
>>
>>53449692
Aliexpress memory (or generic memory wherever it comes from) is usually half the price, and I wanna check if the sticks work as well as branded sticks
>>
i'm genuinely interested in your results; hopefully i'll be able to find this thread again...
>>
bookmarked, op pls deliver
>>
Memory test for the original corsair went well, everything 100% okai, in my exitement I forgot to take a screenshot though
The new memory is in, memory teat running

Thank you, Anon! We love you.
>>
>>53449662
why only 1GB allocation? run that memtest thing that's always included in linux distros. it should test all your address space.

>>53450066
Fuck its supposed to say 'test'

>>53450145
Good idea Ill test that once I finish
>>
>>53450066
may I suckle on that delicious memory teat to ingest useful binary proteins?

Kick ass everything went fine

Buy some aliexpress cheapo memory sticks if you wanna they werk just fine

I can say the same for aliexpress SSD's I've run similar test for 3 different generic SSD's and the best one had 600mb r/w speed (around those values it was a few months ago)

>>53450297
Which supplier did you buy the ram sticks from m8?
>>
>>53450145
Do this, OP
>>53450297`
Check back and test it again after a month or two of us, I'm curious if it'll fail over time.
>>
>>53450297
Maybe you just got lucky? I believe their quality controll is shittier then any branded one, thats exactly what you pay for, quality.

>>53450330
Will do, its a good idea I think how long should I wait? I use my PC daily for 12 hours running intelliJ or the likes most of the time
>>
>>53450377
I did buy 4 sticks and all were 100% good but I realize its a risky, thats the whole point of the experiment
>>
>>53450297
Thanks pham
