Anyone know of a good memory tester?
Yes, multi-client WoW 8o Memory timing issues are difficult to catch w/ software memory tests. They typically do a few passes of marching ones, all ones, all zeros, A's and 5's (1010[A] 0101[5]). This is only good to find stuck bits.

The memory I have has heatsinks and fans on it.

Sounds like you over-paid for your memory. Those are usually marketed for over-clocking. Increasing the clock frequency requires an increase in voltage, ultimately generating more heat requiring the heatsinks and fans. If you're not over-clocking, return that memory and buy the "value" RAM. If you are over-clocking... return your CPU, buy a faster one and stop over-clocking. Run cpu-z and save each tab by pressing F5. I'd be interested to see what the results are on your CPU and Memory tab. Please post the Clock (CPU) and Timing (Memory) settings. Also, please post the specs on your memory and MB (part #'s/manufacturers).

Also, you mentioned you upgraded your MB and CPU. Did you reinstall Windows?

If you used thermal grease between your CPU fan and the CPU, I highly doubt it is a heat problem (assuming you installed it properly). New CPU's come w/ new cooling fans. Before you go and buy a new CPU fan, try running CPU Burn-in (see link below). If you have overheating issues, this tool will remove any doubts.
