Is it just me?

Isn't it confusing trying to understand the way memory works. All them timings and everything, I still don't think I have it straight. I've read quite a few articles but they don't seem to work. Any suggestions on how to better understand the workings of memory?

Memory is made of millions of tiny capacitors. Capacitors are either charges or not charged. This makes up the 1's and 0's stored in memory.

Cas2 is better than Cas2.5. It's the number of cycles it takes your memory to respond, ie the latency, which is why it's called Cas Latency.
