thanks so the lower the better but cost more

yes but like melbourne said it allows you to raise the memory clock speed so generally will be faster

thanks ive got my spec confirmed except for ram an psu

BaDBoY16 · 1 Mar 2007 at 13:12

also look for timings of 5-5-5-15 or 4-4-4-12

psu depends what you want tagen, hyper, enermax are great psus ive got the enermax 850watt its amazing i dont regret it, has 4 rails can run many hdds 4 graphic cards with ease but you would need a monster of a case and a cooling solution to suit but its got abit of a price tag

PAULRYAN52 · 1 Mar 2007 at 15:30

Actually, higher numbers on latency are worse, not better.

BaDBoY16 · 2 Mar 2007 at 09:07

Really i thought the higher the timings the better.

Nope, lower timings result in higher performance. Have a look here for a pretty good explanation.
