Hello there!

Been having issues with 2-3 second lag spikes that causes my PC to freeze during gaming. I researched why and found it may be caused by my ram timings not being correct.
I know to go into the BIOS to try and fix it. What I do not know is optimal ram timings for my PC and ram chips.

To start with, I have three ram chips (tried to include as much info from the ram chips as possible down below):

1) Ramos CL9 4GB DDR3 1333MHz RMB4GB584CH3-13HC
2) IN3T4GNZBII 48-25-97 W1306 4GB DDR3 1333MHz DIMM
3) Crucial CT 102464BA 160BC16FER 8GB 1Gx64 DDR3 1333MHz UDIMM

My Current Setup:

Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 Motherboard
AMD FX-8350 Eight Core Processor (8 CPUs 4.00GHz)
NVidia GeForce GTX 780 Ti
Corsair CX750 PSU
16GB of Ram (2x4GB chips, 1x8GB chip - only registering 14336MB RAM via Dxdiag)

Can somebody help me? Thank you! (if you need any more information, please ask)

Never a good idea to mix DRAM in the first place and you are mixing 3 different sticks (and those have different amounts, diffferent data rates and different timings) so I can see having problems, with those I'd try the 8GB stick in slot 1 closest to the CPU, and 4 GB sticks in slots 3-4, go into BIOS and set manually to 1333 10-10-10-27 DRAM voltage 1.6 and set the CPU/NB voltage to 1.25
