Is my memory faulty?

Had a few BSOD recently so decided to run memtest86, I tested both sticks on their own and one passes with no errors and one has errors as shown in the screen below, is it RMA time?

You should RMA it.

If you decide to soldier on you will have random blue screens and lock ups for no apparent reason. I presume you are running the mem at stock speeds and haven't overclocked it, if you have test again at stock speeds. I gather you have tested the mem in a different slot on your mobo just to rule it out as a factor.
