 Understanding RAM Memory Timing Data
I am trying to understand the different data relating to matching memory modules in a system.
I installed the Corsair Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 modules with the following specs:
Memory Speed - DDR3 - 1333 (667MHZ)
Memory Timing - 9-9-9-24 @ 666MHZ
My motherboard is Asus P6X58D-E with Intel i7- 950 CPU.
According to the bios , if my CPU is locked, the maximum memory supported is DDR3-800 or DDR31066
Does this mean that the installed memory will give me problems because of a mismatch of speed ?
I ran CPUID and it shows that my memory is running at 534MHZ with a timing of 8-8-8-20
Again this is different from the advertised timing of the Corsair. Should I be concerned ?
Thanks for your comments.
