Gskill cl3-4-4-8 PC4400 timings advice

Hi, I recently overclocked my comp:

My overclock

But I was wondering about the memory timings, which I have found a little confusing. Here is what I am running at:

This is how I got there:

"I was just adjusting them 1 by 1 trying to get them as low as possible except for tRAS which I calc'd as roughly cas latency + tRCD +2 (which I saw on a dfi memory guide) and tRC which I calc'd as tRAS+tRP, and tRFC which I calc'd as tRC+2. I quickly noticed that I could go lower than some of these numbers, but I wasn't sure what the consequences of doing this would be and the rationale presented behind the calculations seemed reasonable so I stuck fairly close to those. Should I just see how low I can stably go?"

Any thoughts as to where to go from here? I'd like things to be as tight as possible, but I'm not sure how to proceed, as I am still reading up about timings. Any advice?


thanks

Hi there, thanks for the reply.

I can get tras to 6 i'm sure, I just didn't go that low as it deviated form the formula I saw. I will try it.

If I put RAS to CAS or RAS precharge to 2 it doesn't get past the BIOS Are there other combinations of settings that might get these to 2?

I will run a memtest on RAS 6 tonight though, and check out that guide. thanks!
