Hey guys, new to the forum and to overclocking in general. Have done mild CPU overclocking but that's about the extent of my knowledge. In the process of building a new rig and have been doing some research on different types of RAM. One thing I don't quite understand is the variations in the memory and the latency.
For example, the RAM I'm looking at is 3200Mhz with a CAL of 14. I am also looking at higher Mhz RAM that has a higher CAL. Given the equation to know the Ns response of each RAM, why would you go with the higher Mhz since technically they all (for the most part) are slower in regards to Ns? Am I missing something?
Equation i was given was CAL / Mhz *1000
Please excuse my ignorance if I'm just overlooking the obvious. Thanks
