P8P67 EVO Question? Need Help!

[Chioas12]

Hello Folks, i recently bought a P8P67 EVO motherboard and looking for a upgrade of RAM, right now i'm using my old 6gb 1333mhz Kingston RAM which i had trouble installing so had to MEMOK! it not sure if it fixed the problem, or just postpone it. My CPU is I5 2500 and overclocked it slightly by increasing Base clock from 100 to 103. (Stupid i know).

anyway i'm wanting to buy: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9-1600MHz-Vengeance-Memory/dp/B004CRSM4I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1347180102&sr=8-1

But not sure if it'll be compatiable with my Mobo. I checked my old RAM's timing in my BIOS and CPU-Z and it's 9-9-9-24, but in SPD it's 9-9-9-25 which is a little confusing... Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance.

It should be fine. Dont see any reason why it wouldn't be compatible (unless you have a large CPU heatsink, in which case the heat-fins on the RAM may interfere).

Doesn't timing matter? Since i'm kinda confused about the 9-9-9-25 in the SPD through CPU-Z.

When it comes to RAM compatibility, timings don't matter. That's an aspect of the RAM's performance, not compatibility with the mobo.
In general, all you have to worry about is whether its DDR2 or 3.

That Corsair Vengeance kit should be fine.
