It has been a very long time since I have had to bother with RAM timings soI am basically clueless at the moment.
I have ended up basically giving up half of my RAM (2x8GB) for my wife's computer because none of the others I have tried worked with her board. Go figure. Anyway, I am going to order myself replacements but the exact model I have now goes for 130 for a 16GB set, whereas another almost identical set is selling for 80. The difference? Mine is 16-18-18 and the other is 16-20-20. Same speeds, same voltage.
I am thinking my mobo will take it and keep on chugging if I get the new set. Will I need to play with the BIOS or not? Will the different timings cause issues?
