Memory timings in DC any different?!

[F@TMAN]

I just got a DC kit (KHX3200A/1G), which is 2x512MB PC3200 Hyper-X memory, and from Kingston's website ( http://www.valueram.com/datasheets/KHX3200AK2_1G.pdf ), they advise the timings for the DIMMS are 2-3-2-6, but I'm not sure whether or not this applies while in DC (I was always under the impression CAS was 2.5 for DC regardless). To add to that, my m/b sets the timings to 2.5-3-3-8 using the "By SPD" settings in BIOS. Anyone care to shed some light for me?! Thanks in advance

Since your ram has the "A" in the product code, its most likely CH-5. Which also corresponds well to the advertised timings.

Timings are not an issue, when considering SC/DC. My setup is DC, and I use 2-2-2-5.

Dont use SPD timings. Configure them manually to 2-3-2-6 in your bios.
