RAM question

[alex7391]

Im looking to upgrade my ram. I know now i have DDR2 SDRAM pc2-4200 240 pin. Will DDR2 SDRAM pc2-5400 240 pin work in my pc?

kinda depends on the mobo you have.

So I want to prolong the life of my ram and I tightened the timings to 3-3-3-9 1t on my Corsair Memory @ 533 linked and synced. I'm running at 1.85volt and was wondering if by tightening the timings the life of my ram would go down faster.

Thanks,

Andrew
