My ram passes tests in memtest but not with booth sticks

when i test my ram with memtest it passes the tests(when testing one stick at a time). but it fails tests when both sticks are installed in single or dual channel mode.
Why could this be?

with memtest you test one stick at a time,it finds false errors when you do both at once
you can double check with this
