First Time overclocking Memory and first time posting any where on any Forum need your opinion and support.

as far as my understanding goes i have got a good latency score on AIDA but i was wondering if it is good at all ??
i just raised my DRAM voltage a bit for stability and my setup is as follows:

i9-11900k
z590 MSI MPG
4400mhz CL19 Patriot - (you people call it cheap samsung b-die ) PVS416G440C9K

i never touched my subtimings so i was wondering if i can get some advice

tFAW and TRFC can definitely go lower and tREFI can be raised. Those should be the best improvents. You can take a look at my cheap samsung C-Die timings. Primaries and frequency is obviously worse, but secondaries and tertiaries should be a decent comparison.

edit: Also for latency checking I recommend the Intel Memory Latency Checker

Thank you so much.
 
I haven't touched 11th gen so I don't know what's going on with those but with a 10900k i was hitting 66k read / write and 36ns latency on AIDA. 4400c16 ram.

Max your trefi to 65535 and try to raise ram frequencies, is 3600 all you can get out of it?

Those are my new Final results after following the DDR4 Overclocking guide ( https://github.com/integralfx/MemTestHelper/blob/oc-guide/DDR4 OC Guide.md ).
Do you guys think i can go any further.
On Gear 1 im unable to raise the frequency any higher unfortunately i remember before i booted once a couple of months ago at 4000 Gear 1 but never again im not sure if there is something that i can to get better results or if i drop my latency a bit more.
