Ram Question

[GrimReaper23]

OK this was on a info plate on newegg corsair XMS series Ram with cas latency of Cas Latency: 2-3-3-6 T1
What does the T1 mean?

 

[Nubius]

Command Rate. Increases performances, but like dual channel can be marginal. For high OC's you have to change it to 2T though.

What are the induvidual numbers for? People always talk about those, and ufortunately I dont know what they stand for. For example, 2-3-3-6 T1. What exactly does that mean? I never have gotten a straight answer.

[Nubius]

1T and T1 are the same thing. I've seen it written both ways, why I dont know, but it's the same thing.

Go there, scroll about 3/4's of the page down until you see DRAM TIMINGS...that'll tell you everything you want to know and a lot that you don't care to know
