Memory timing and voltage help please!!

I really REALLY need some help with this before I order so any help would be massively appreciated

All I need to know is this

If I buy memory thats rated at CAS8, will they run at that setting as default or are they just what they are "capeable" of and need setting up to run at that speed?

I just want to buy the best I can and for the moment i'm not fussed on over clocking, I will at a later date but for now I want the best I can out of the box

Thanks for any help

Anyone? Surely most people on here who have built a PC recently know the answer to this?

Maybe its the way i'm asking, did I not say please enough times or something? Maybe I dont have a high enough post count to warrant respected replies yet?

Thanks for the reply, I really was hoping I would just be able to plug them in and they will run at the advertised settings, I have read the mobo manual .pdf and it just has an auto setting as default, I was hoping it would test the memory and apply the best settings, I guess i'll find out and if it doesnt i'll have to look into how to do it manually

Thanks again
