I bought some ram that is advertised to run at 4-4-4-12, but I'm not sure what my timings are set to. The PC is an older gateway so I can't change the timings, the bios doesn't even show what they are so I'm using CPUID.
I'm seeing 2 different sets of timings from CPUID; under Timings I have this:
DRAM Frequency - 333MHz
FSB: DRM - 3:5
CAS# Latency (CL) - 5.0 clocks
RAS# to CAS# Delay (tRCD) - 5 clocks
RAS# Precharge (tRP) - 5 clocks
Cycle Time (tRAS) - 12 clocks
Bank Cycle Time (tRC) - 21 clocks
But then under the SPD tab I have these readings for both slot 1 and slot 3:
Frequency - 333MHz
CAS# Latency - 4.0
RAS# to CAS# - 4
RAS# Precharge - 4
tRAS - 12
tRC - 20
So are my timings 5-5-5-12 or 4-4-4-12? Why are there 2 different timing readings on CPUID?
