Download and run the freeware utility CPU-Z from here: http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html

On the webpage look for the Download latest release heading to the right of the example CPU-Z window and select the appropriate download for the Operating System you are using.

Install if necessary (i.e. if you chose the 1.61 setup, english download).

Run CPU-Z and click on the Memory tab to display information about what timings your memory is currently running with.

Click on the SPD tab to display the contents of the SPD EEPROM's Timings Table.

I found the information about my RAM http://www.qdigrp.com/product/DOWN/desktop/RMR1810EC58E...

Too bad those specs don't mention anything about the contents of the SPD Timings table. In fact it mentions nothing about the timings or CAS Latency.

It's EPP (i.e. Enhanced Performance Profiles) Memory so here is its SPD Timings Table with EPP Extensions:

Type: DDR3
Size: 2048 MBytes
Manufacturer: Ramaxel Technology
Max Bandwidth: PC3-10700 (667 MHz)
Part Number: RMR1810EC58E8F1333


SPD Table Entry: JEDEC #6
Frequency: 761.9 MHz
CAS# Latency: 10.0
RAS# To CAS#: 10
RAS# Precharge: 10
tRAS: 28
tRC: 38
Voltage: 1.500 V

SPD Table Entry: JEDEC #5
Frequency: 685.7 MHz
CAS# Latency: 9.0
RAS# To CAS#: 9
RAS# Precharge: 9
tRAS: 25
tRC: 34
Voltage: 1.500 V

SPD Table Entry: JEDEC #4
Frequency: 609.5 MHz
CAS# Latency: 8.0
RAS# To CAS#: 8
RAS# Precharge: 8
tRAS: 22
tRC: 30
Voltage: 1.500 V

SPD Table Entry: JEDEC #3
Frequency: 533.3 MHz
CAS# Latency: 7.0
RAS# To CAS#: 7
RAS# Precharge: 7
tRAS: 20
tRC: 27
Voltage: 1.500 V

SPD Table Entry: JEDEC #2
Frequency: 457.1 MHz
CAS# Latency: 6.0
RAS# To CAS#: 6
RAS# Precharge: 6
tRAS: 17
tRC: 23
Voltage: 1.500 V

SPD Table Entry: JEDEC #1
Frequency: 381.0 MHz
CAS# Latency: 5.0
RAS# To CAS#: 5
RAS# Precharge: 5
tRAS: 14
tRC: 19
Voltage: 1.500 V

On first boot the ASUS P8P67 should automatically default to using SPD Table Entry JEDEC #5.

The DRAM COMMAND Mode/Command Rate should default to 2.

You can manually override the memory timings using the ASUS UEFI BIOS Utility - Advanced Mode ---> Ai Tweaker ---> DRAM Timing Control settings page.
