OK, It's upgrade time again for me. I currently have a FX-60 and Ultra-D combo and I'm going to upgrade to an X2-6000 AM2 system. I understand on the DDR memory that using lower timings is always a little better/faster but I'm new to all of the DDR2 stuff. Looking at Newegg, There are a shitload of different memory for the DDR2 2X1gb kits that I'm interested in and my question is this:
Will a lower Cas Latency such as a 4-4-4-12 be faster than 5-5-5-15 like it would be using DDR memory or is it different with the DDR2/AM2 stuff? This is assuming that both are the same speed rating such as 6400.
I probably won't be doing much overclocking with this system BTW.
