Hi. I have an old machine, and recently changed the ram in it. The ram that it currently has is Corsair CMX1024-3200C2 (2 sticks, 1gb each). The mobo is Asus P4P-800SE.
When I went into the Bios, the ram timings were configured by SPD, and in Pc Wizard, they read as:
CAS Latency (tCL) : 3 clocks @200 MHz
RAS to CAS (tRCD) : 3 clocks @200 MHz
RAS Precharge (tRP) : 3 clocks @200 MHz
Cycle Time (tRAS) : 8 clocks @200 MHz
I wanted to get them to 2-3-3-6 since that's what the memory can do. My previous ram's timings were 2-3-3-7. So I went into Bios, disabled configure by SPD, and entered my own timings (2-3-3-6). Once in Pc Wizard, it displayed my timings as 3-3-3-8 (same as above) again. I rebooted, went into Bios again, and changed them to 2-3-3-7. Once again, Pc Wizard showed them as 3-3-3-8.
How can I get my timings down to 2-3-3-6 or at least 2-3-3-7? In all of the cases above, my Max Burst Length was set to 8.
Any help would be appreciated.
