Whats more important for a performance oriented pc? Lower timing (latency) or higher frequency?
Reason I ask...
A while back I bought some memory that was, if memory serves, rated at 2100mhz at a CAS 9. I have to look later, but I believe those were the stats. Now I cant find it anywhere, seems to be discontinued, but I can find some at that frequency with a CAS11, between 2100 and 2300Mhz.
My guess is this memory didnt perform as it should with tighter timings? These are Kingston HyperX modules btw.
Thoughts?
