Ok i have an AMD 3400+ haven't overclocked the CPU yet but i can easily do that but when it comes to the RAM im very confused.

Ive got CPU-Z and when i go to Memory its got:

CAS Latency
RAS to DAS Delay
RAS Percentage
Cycle Time (TRAS)
Bank Cycle Time (TRC)
Command Rate

Not sure what all these mean.

Where are the RAM timings for instance 4-4-4-12?

If someone could help me out ill be very grateful, thanks
 
Yes ive read that sticky i still dont understand which ones what for the RAM Timings.

Could you please explain what settings i have to change that affect the Ram Timings for instance 6-8-7-15 and how i would change it to say 5-5-5-12.

Not saying my motherboard and RAM will take it i just want to know how to change these numbers.

So which one in the CPU-Z Memory settings refer to the Numbers 5-5-5-12

Thank you

Ah im still really confused ive read that article still dont get it.

Its saying the Ram Timings are 2-2-2-6 thats really good right? from the article that is

This is what it reads in CPU-Z under Memory.

Frquency - 200.9mhz
FSB/DRAM - CPU/11
CAS Latency - 3.0 clocks
RAS to CAS Delay - 3 clocks
RAS Precharge - 3 clocks
Cyclye Time (TRAS) - 8 clocks
Bank Cycle Time (TRC) 11 clocks
Command Rate - 2T
DRAM idle Timer - 16 clocks

So if i got this right the Ram Timings would be as Follows.

3-3-3-8 would that be right?
 
Ok ive changed the Timings and they are now set to:

2-2-2-6, at 133mhz.

I tried to raise the Memory to 266mhz at the same timings but it crashed, so in theory if i changed the timings to say 3-3-3-7 it would have a chance to run at 266mhz is that correct?

One more thing because i understand it now.

I will be getting a new comp soon the E6600 and getting the Crucial DRR2 Tenth Anniversary stuff and the timings are 3-3-3-12.

Why are my timings on a DRR lower?
 
Yep i could change the Memory to 400 and about this Ram Divider?

And in the SPD tab its got the Timings table down Below and its got two different frequency's 166mhz and 200mhz and then two diffrent Timings?

Mind explaning? thanks
