Newb question #3..... it's about RAM this time

just a couple more days b4 i order my new rig............
Abit IC-7
2.4C
2x512 Corsair XMS the ones one newegg that are $260 with 2-3-3-6 default......not the more expensive 2-3-2-6 ones

i plan on OCing the 2.4C to 250 FSB running 5:4 ratio......hopefully.......i really don't want to mess with any voltages if i don't have to

so my newb question is........... should i run the RAM at 2-3-3-11 timings instead of the default 2-3-3-6??
i've done a lot of reading and that's wut a lot of people say to run it on

if not, pls advise me on wut to set the ram at or try to reach................details are welcome but not recessary....... i'll just look up how-to's

as usual, thank u guys in advance!
 
my advice. run one. benchmark your memory, record it. change it, benchmark it, record it. compare and see what is faster for your system.

If the ram you are getting is the Corsair 3200 then check out outpost.com it is cheaper there.

I just ordered it for my 2.8C I got coming, they were lower then newegg and googlegear for that ram.

If its not the 3200 then dont bother cause its not as cheap there for the 3700 etc.
