I am still very new to the scene. When I was planning my system I first started posting here. I was suggested to get the RAM I have(sig) for the timings. Now I am hearing I should loosen them for a higher FSB score. So I am wondering how they relate in actual system performance. Also I am wondering what the numbers actually mean and what should be "loosened". I am running 2-2-2-11. If I should loosen them what and why?

Sorry for the long post. I am just trying to learn more before I mess with things I dont know about.

Thanks.
