I just built myself a new Ivy Bridge rig along with 16GB (4x4) of ram rated at 1600MHz, 9-9-9-24. I've been able to tighten timings at that frequency to 8-9-8-x where x has been able to boot at as low as 12. All the RAM overclocking guides I've been reading suggest that tRAS should be somewhere in the neighborhood of the total of tCL, tRCD, and tRP combined (25) without noting why or if going lower than this threshold is advisable. So, my question is whether or not I should be taking my tRAS as low as I can get it, or if I should be sticking to approximately that threshold, and what tRAS you would recommend at these timings? Thanks!
