Memory timing comparison from THG

Pretty good info on timing

So faster timings = slightly faster performance. I would like to see graphs where he used the fastest and slowest available timings to demonstrate a larger gap between 3 4 4 8 and 2 2 2 5 for example.

Hmm Tom doing an article about what most of us have known for some time now?

What I don't like about it and have said before is that in all of these review sites need to add OC'd processors in there. Take the 2.4C runing at 275FSB + and lax timmings and it is alot faster than the stock 200FSB at tight timmings. So I would agree that at default FSB then timmings matter but if you are running the same memory but at a faster FSB reduced timmings will still win.
