Question what is the current consensus on the best memory test application ?

i was going to create a poll but decided to rather just ask individually. (because i surely would have missed some of them) so, what is the current consensus on the best memory test application ? by this i mean if one needs to test today's ddr2/3 memory for faults or just to see if their ram has no problems, what should they use. (free or commercial and for xp)

I've always used MemTest followed by 24 hours of Prime.
