Corsair Timings

ajones32 · 30 May 2007 at 23:36

As you can see from the pic, the timings @ 400mhz (800) are 5-5-5-18. When I OC (10mhz in BIOS) the timings change to 5-6-6-19. Can I change the timings back to the 5-5-5-18 and be ok? or will it "computer says no".

Its just following the SPD tables, get them lowered manually!

I did as you said, but lost just over 400mb/s bandwidth on benchmark.

Edit- This memory doesn't seem all that clever for overclocking, I cant seem to get any extra performance from it at all, no matter what I try.

You must have changed the divider or something? or put in a higher number by mistake?
