Hi,
New to overclocking and have a question

Current system:
G.SKILL Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D-4GBXL 4GB 2X2GB DDR3-1600 CL9-9-9-24 Memory
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T
MSI 790FX-GD70 CrossFire DDR3 Motherboard

The AMD board default memory speed was 1333 and I changed the FSB:DRAM ratio to 1:4 such that the speed is now at 1600. Nothing else is changed except this, cpu at stock speed.

When I look in the BIOS or using CPU-Z, my memory timing is now 9-9-9-28 instead of the rated 9-9-9-24. Does anybody know if this is normal and/or does it make any difference?

PS planning to overclock the cpu later on via increasing the FSB
Thanks!
