When running 1:1 fsb and memory, do memory timings matter????

Intel, no. AMD, sort of.(Not at all in real-world performance, but in benchmark programs a little bit.)

Timing matters if you rather have fast reaction over high bandwidth but I rather have both:D

1:1 is naturally faster than 5:4 but it depends on the difference in FSB you can acheave.

So with an 2.8c what memory is best for overclocking and latency ? BH-6 ? Because from what I understand, I cant go that high with this chip. Maybe 3.3 This memory thing sux... arggg hehe

BH-5 and BH-6 are known to run at DDR500 speeds with tight timing IF you have the volts.

If you cant do the volts go with the OCZ EB stuff they clock nicely and quite high at 2.6-3.0v
