Testing 2 or more sticks at once?

It's useful if you don't know which stick is faulty out of a set. It can also help to show if it's a problem where the motherboard doesn't like two sticks of ram in simultaneously, so you test both separately and if they both pass then there's a problem with the motherboard or bios setup.

I'd say it's best to test all the ram simultaneously first, then if you don't get any problems you've saved the time and hassle of having to test separately.

If you have problems then test the ram separately.
 
it can also find out a faulty ram slot so if all sticks work in slot 1 but with both sticks you get a fail, by the time you'v tried 1 sick on its own in every slot you will have proved the ram and the motherboard :)
