Hm... what makes you so sure that your RAM configuration is really
working stable?

This is just very basic functionality. It is no prrof at all that your
system is running stable.

Can you, for example, boot Linux on your board? Is Ethernet working?

Can you not load it with a JTAG debugger? Or burn it to flash
(together with the U-Boot image) and start it there?

I belive your RAM is not working correctly. Chek the initialization
again.
