Claiming Warranty for RAM

[UzuShin]

My PC has been crashing (BSOD) quite frequently, games also randomly "stop working".

I tested my RAM using memtest86 and found over 544 errors xD... So yeah my ram is screwed.

Now the thing is, will shop keepers be willing to receive my ram based on this or will the say stupid shiz like "PC toh choltese, ram nosto hole to choltoi na".

Also there is no way I can afford to stay even a week without my PC, so I will be buying another stick of ram.

I am thinking of getting another stick of TEAM 8gb ram so I can use both and get 16gb after the other one is back from warranty.

But after this debacle I am kinda pissed at TEAM. Are their RAM good quality wise in general?

as far i know team rams in bangladesh provides lifetime warranty so if you show them the error reports then they are indebted to change your faulty rams

is team bought from ucc? i thought impex computers... cvp probably owns it.... and ucc.... vanguard works there... are importer of team rams



btw off topic I already said this in forum back in the ddr2 era team ram was horrible. I used to hate it... but i think they kinda rebranded them later and they became better? i dont know... people dont use team ram in eu or usa, they use other 4 brands

tell me a name of a brand which doesn't sucks for long run or atleast can run for 5 years without hiccups . even i faced faulty experience with corsair and twinmos rams too

Yeah. I'm gonna watch this thread for updates. If the shopkeepers don't honor the lifetime warranty, I'm gonna stay away from them and advice against anyone I know.

Although someone told me that lifetime warranty is only a fad. If the model isn't available in the market, goodbye lifetime or sth. So check if the model is still available or not.

i have faced this kind of situation in Ryans computers. Just make sure they understand the problem properly and in the description write in brief when the problem happen. Second time they tested it properly and give me new one.

I don't know how legit Tom'sHardware is about their best memory list. But it seems Team has crept up there with Night Hawk and Dark ROG model.

Adore Tv made a Video showing How Tom's Hardware is Biased toward Intel ,So in that sense their other review can also show bias towards specific brands

Ahh ram issues can cause random errors.

The most common ones were

K_MODE Exception
Memory_Management
