I didn't say the memory will fail, I said it may not meet the system timing.


Which would cause it to fail memtest, and cause crashes.

I don't need to prove otherwise its just a fact.


You need to show a datasheet from a memory manufacturer and explain why a timing could end up being out of spec by running it slower.
