Which RAM timings are best?

I'm running 8882622 currently...as advised by this thread

According to it...these two timings: 8862222 and 8882222, corruput data in RAM and eventually on ur HD...

Anyway...which settings should I use when I'm not OCing? Is 8882622 alright?

And...which settings are equal to like CAS 2.5, or CAS 3--which settings to use when I OC?

I run 8862222 when my FSB is below 165mhz. It does not, at least in my case, create corrupt RAM data or HD data. I run 8872222 @ 175mhz now. I would say 8862222 is what you should shoot for, if you are planning on going past ~160mhz on your FSB, you may need to back those timings off a bit. Also, don't be afraid to raise your DDR voltage...2.9v, the max setting, should be safe as long as you don't have a high internal case temp.
