so i got a gigabyte b360m ds3h , i3 8100, 8gb ddr4 adata xpg gammix d30 (which is advertised at 16-18-18-36 , RC 54) so i know i can't run it at 3200mhz on my i3 which supports only 2400mhz.but i tried to set lower module timings.

so in my bios xmp has only 1 profile and no profile 2,and there is a disable option as well. if it is disable it rans at 1.20V and high latencies 19-19-19-43 RC 61. 1333mhz(2666mhz) hwinfo sees it at 1200mhz, if it's on profile 1 it tries to run as advertised at 1.35V 16-18-18-36 RC54 1600mhz(even tho hwinfo detects it at 1200mhz , half the 2400hz) which make sense. now in hwinfo i saw that there is a supported xmp module timing among others, which runs at 13-14-14-28 RC 41, 1200mhz and 1.35V. but didn't see such profile in my bios with all the parametrs auto set correctly , so what i did was edit profile 1 timings from 16-18-18-36 , RC 54 to 13-14-14-28 RC 41 , these are the only values i touched eventho there were lots of subtimings and numbers there as well which were there autoset for profile 1 but remained untoched. now i ran memtest64 let it for 10 minutes and got no errors , i never did too much stuff in bios before so i just wanted to know if this settings are ok

If it's stable and the system don't crash, all good then.
