Heya. I have a pair of 1GB Corsair XMS2 PC26400-C4 sticks.
When I check CPU-Z and Everest, both noted timings that are 5-5-5-18.
These sticks are also EPP.
I currently have a X24600+ and am upgrading to the 5600+. I'm also using a Gigabyte GA-M59SLI5 mobo. Why are the timings off from the listed spec of 4-4-4-12 CL4? Do I need to changed them manually? If I do, I shouldnt need to make voltage changes right? Does it make a big difference if I dont?
Mobo allows me to adjust timings fairly easily, Im just kinda of nervous about doing it cause of gigabyte's wierd scaling.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
