so its better 2.5-3-3-7

well that looks like DDR 1 timings ...So I would say best or at least better is 1T and 2-3-3-5

is pretty reasonable if you have brand name ram and even value ram will do it if not overclocked too high.

it should go like this

2.5 +3 +3 = 8.5 or 8

so its better 2.5-3-3-7

Thats a logical approach which does not always work, some timings have a much greater impact than others on performance such as CAS for instance.
