has anyone done any tweeking of RAM timings past those provided by SPD and compared latencies? I've seen a stick of "quality" DDR400 have slower SPD timings than a cheap-o stick of DDR-400. I know that in benchmarks the RAM timing can net quite a bit of improvement. I have no idea if the intel boards even have settings to lower the timings, and if they do I'm sure there'd be differing opinions on stability issues running RAM at tighter timings than are defined by SPD, but even if the timings do impact latencies considerably enough, one could look for ram rated by it's manufacturer for lower timings.
This is just a thought I've had concerning latencies, and I don't recall it ever being discussed.
