Now I need to take a loan in order to afford 32gb for replacement thanks to the ai bros hoarding all the chips…

Tried on three different PCs, both Intel and AMD, both sticks are damaged, somehow

    I had to do this on my busted ddr4 2 weeks ago. Badram didn’t work, but memmap did. I had to do bit flipping to get the translation from BADRAM as explained here.

    I think the latest memtest86+ has the option to report in memmap format. But you will need to take a photo of the screen, coz it’s Foss and not as fancy as Passmarks memtest.

    Edit: Adding badram to grub broke grub for me, I have to undo the grub config using a live boot rescue thingamajig. Then I went hunting why.
