I'd go along with this, I used memtest86 with mine - I was sure that the
problem wasnt with my RAM. I run a memtest session - I took a while but
it came back with around 10,000 errors! If all else fails then you're
left with trial and error - slow the RAM down as much as possible and
slowly increase the speed and see how stable the system is. The
stability vs speed issue will all come down to the quality of the mobo
and RAM installed.

Good luck,

Jeff
