A month ago I started to buy some stuff to make a gaming pc, after a few days comparing prices I bought the following: ASUS p8Z68-V motherboard
Intel core i7 2600k
Asus gtx560 ti graphic card
4x 4Gb G-skill Sniper 1600mhz ( G.Skill SNIPER F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR2)
After a few tests on this machine some softwares started to randomly freeze.
In most cases the program would resume after a 15-20 seconds freeze but sometimes the entire computer freezed and gave me memory error pop-ups.
After scanning part of the memory using memtest software it showed a lot of memory errors.
Here's the error message when scanning with memtest: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/815/745546546.png/
To find out which memory was causing trouble I tested the 4 separately with memtest86 and memtest86+(by creating a bootable CD with them) but both utilities didnt found any errors on my memory.
I decided to test again with Memtest and again it found several errors.
All my BIOS settings are set to default, my bios is up-to-date.
Here's the error message after removing the memory and inserting it again:

My question is, why memtest find errors but the other programs dont?
Is there any other software you guys recommend to test my ram?
