Recently installed CPU-Z, and noticed my ram isn't running at the correct timings. I have G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900). It's running @ 800Mhz - 11-11-11-28 @ 1.5v. My question is: Is it safe to use XMP Profile #1 or the Asus Optimal system profile, and if so which one? Both change my ram to the correct timings.
