Ram timing issues

Hello everyone! I recently built my first cpu and its running great! I am however having one issue that I can't quite figure out... I cannot seem to get my RAM timings to work.

I am using a Crosshair formula IV keyboard and G skill rip jaws DDR3RAM (Model F3-10666CL7D-8GBRH)

Cas Latency
7

Timing
7-7-7-21

Using AMD Overdrive trying to set those timings it has a habit of both changing the timings and CAS latency back to something weird, and it automatically sets my memory clock to 400 instead of 667.

I have had no luck getting it to work in BIOS either, thoughts? (I am a noob at all of this admittedly.) :(
 
more info is required

like all the rest of the hardware you are using

ill venture to say that the keyboard you are using is irrelevant, though.
 
AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition Thuban 3.3GHz

Seagate Barracuda ST31000524AS 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

ASUS 24X DVD Burner

COOLER MASTER Silent Pro M700 RS-700-AMBA-D3 700W ATX12V V2.3 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular power supply

Win 7 64bit home premium

XFX HD-695X-ZNDC Radeon HD 6950 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity

sorry. :) Should have known better and included it all originally.
 
If you dont mind, an explanation of exactly which X-X-X-Xs are which written out would be helpful to ensure that i am getting you correct info and what timings are set to what!
 
P.S. again... thank you all for taking the time to read and help! I realize you probably get a lot of new people coming on for one post and running away thereafter quite a bit. :(
 
i have similar ram, i just had to change the xmp profile in bios, seems they have 4 timing profiles out of the box, maybe yours are like that too
