depends... the OCZ should have automatically set it's latency to 3... But you may be able to change it, I forgot how to activate changing timings...

check your bios. if you can't change the latencies from there, you might try SysTool (in the TPU download section) and if you have a motherboard compatible with SysTool you can adjust your memory timings from there. Like anything though, it's best if you are able to do it through the bios.

If SysTool doesn't have your mobo, try google to find similar software. Good luck!

Great!

Now I guess I will look it up...

Edit:

I definitely got the ram to work together, I just changed the CAS Latency in the BIOS like you said error_force(systool wasn't compatible with my board), I'm going to put some pics up once I get all the cables in.....and once and for all I would like to thank everyone for helping with this first build I couldn't had done it without you guys! :D


P.S. I'm sure more questions are to come though...hehe

I believe remember BELIEVE that compusa is way overpriced. There is an online store with excellent prices (although not always the lowest) they give ou excellent service too. I am telling you this because when I was doing MY first build the website helped me alot. Plus they are great with RMA's so if anything else craps out on you you will be able to return it. Newegg.com

By the way, good luck.

LOL, yeah they are!!! Way overpriced! I went to tiger direct and got a temp motherboard(Asus P4S800D-X) while the Abit IC7 RMA comesback....I hope it comes back soon because I can't overclock crap with this board The chipset sucks,lol!
