I would assume this whole "SLi Certified" ram is a gimic and isnt really worth paying attention but I figured I would ask anyway. I have 4GB of this

crappy CL i know but I figured i could make up with it since it can be overclocked decently. But I was wondering if there are any features with SLi certified memory that make it possibly more of an advantage to own?

SLI ready RAM is a gimmick...

And PC9600 5,5,5,12 are pretty good timings :)

Isnt SLI ready something like EPP memory? On certain chipsets it deaults to the higher SPD timings?
