So normally I'd use Memtest86+, but it's last update was in 2011 and mentions adding Sandy Bridge compatability. I'm assuming it won't work correct on a Z77/IB system at this point?

So what's the best way to test out my new RAM? Just slap it into my P55 system and test it there? I've got AIDA64, I've never really used it's stress test before, so I don't know if that's worth using.

I ran memtest on my MSI-GD65 with an i3 2100 and Samsung 30nm ram the other day with no issues.

Ran 2 passes. It seemed to take longer than I remembered but I don't think I encountered any issues.

It wasn't Ivy Bridge, which I guess is your concern.
