That sounds like an issue with the processor, in either the processor's memory management unitintegrated memory controller or the integrated memory controller.

In modern systems, motherboards don't really play a role in memory management beyond just providing a path between the memory modules and the processor. Memory is directly connected to the processor to minimize latency; the "northbridge" that connects the memory to the processor in older systems is now part of the processor itself. (The firmware or PCH may control how the processor runs the RAM, but it doesn't make sense for it to cause bit errors of the sort you describe as it's ultimately the responsibility of the processor.) Hence, the very first thing I'd suspect in a situation like this is a faulty processorIMC.

In fact, I'd be very surprised if the motherboard or system firmware were to blame for the problems you're experiencing.
