On every piece of RAM you'll see the timings like: "2-2-2-5".
Can someone explain to me what this is all about? What should I buy?

Because the numbers measure clock cycles, remember that lower timings don't effectively slower timings....

Hi. I don't consider myself a novice when it comes to building computers or computer hardware in general, but I've never taken the time to fully understand RAM.
Can somebody tell me why there is a need for different clockspeeds when it comes to RAM?
And...

Just buy cheap, but quality ram and saveHere is a good article on RAM timing and a good memory performance guide .
timings gives you less than a 1-5% performance increase.

So ive been having instability lately and i figured out its my RAM. So i went to loosen some timings, i was previously DDR3 2133 CL9-11-10-24, i want to be 11-11-11-30. But if i try to reboot with the CL11 my computer wont start, but if i do 10-11-10-...

What would be better? To buy 1866 speed ram or 1600 with a lower cas latency and faster timings. This would be for a gaming rig. Like these two for example.

Corsair 2x4 1600 at newegg
[Edit] The processor is an I5-2500K

As the turnaround time between clock cycles that the CPU transmits data to the RAM.

Need stable timings for 1866. Thank you!
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX
CPU: AMD FX-6100 Zambezi 3.3GHz
RAM: G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866
Again, thank you! I will post updates if the timings do not...

If it doesn't support it at those timings I am OK with clocking down.
Thought I may want to include that.

Hello,
I'm in the process of looking and building a new machine in the next few weeks. I am looking at building a machine with 24gig of RAM since i'm a heavy gamer and VM user. I have found a good deal for two sets of ram sticks, linked below. Same speed...

Last choice is to mix different sets of different models/capacities/timings/voltages timings, but unless under the gun, don't think I'd try it, could well end up spending more than a full with something like 10-10-1....

I've achieved a completely stable OC of 4.37 ghz @1.37 V's HT on. 190 x 23
ram speed and timings of 1952mhz @ 9-11-9-27, vtt v's 1.375. (2x uncore)
My question is, will i benefit more with say 1800mhz and 8-8-8-24??

I've got 2 gigs of OCZ Platinum DDR 400. 2X1 gig
I've also got a couple sticks of 512 meg. Heres a screen shot.
I'n the screen shot, there's just slots 1,3 and 4...1 and 2 are the same timings soooo...yea.

Mixing & matching ram doesn't always get the best performance, and most likely....
And the timings indicate that your ram is on the 166 divider and not 200, some CPU specs would help best sticks, largest capacity and best timings.

Hi
I have noticed that my RAM's clock speed is being changed on its own and wondering why this is happening since I have manually set the timings/speed & voltage in bios, my RAM is suppose to run at 9,9,9,24 @ 1600mhz, that is what it is set in bios also...

You dont think there will be any negitive be fine it will probably... .
It defaults to the slower timings.
You shouldtry it and find out..
Of overclocking, seeing how fast you can set the timings
most of the time u will be fine with corsair.
