I looked at what I had written down, I had RAS to CAS R/S Delay, I should have left that one alone. Maybe I will try it again tonight.

What sort of benefit should I see?? Is there a way to see what the machine runs now and how it will run after I make my changes?

Thanks,
Mike

It should cause your system to become more stable as well as a small performance increase.

The most important timing is your CAS latency. Most of your other timings are measure in relation to your CAS latency. If you overclock you may have to loosen the timings back up.

The general rule is that the faster the speed of the RAM, the less timings matter.

I would run memtest to check the RAM for faults.
