GeIL
GOC38GB1866C9DC
Memory Size 8192 MB
Number of Modules 2 module(s)
Module Size 4096 MB
Memory Type DDR3
Memory Speed 1866 MHz
Designation PC3-14900
CAS Latency 9-10-9-28
at around £60


vs crucial sport 1600 MHz · Latency times: 9-9-9-24 · Memory configurations: 240-pin DIMM · Memory type: DDR3-RAM · Type (manufacturer type): Ballistix Sport
 
Solution
Basic DRAM is normally considered as 1600 with CL of 9 or 1600/9 then 1866/either 9-10, 2133/10 , 2400/11, 2666/12

performance DRAM is 1600/7 or 8, 1866/8, 2133/9 2400/10, 2666/11, 2800,12


the lower the CL the less time it takes to perform an action, and the freq dictates how much DRAM in MB (or technically MT/S) per second can be used i.e. 1600 sticks are capable of 12, 800 MT/s per second or Mega Transfer, which roughly equate to MegaBytes

Thanx Man, can you explain ram timings to me simply? what is good, average and bad for example?
