Improving RAM timings.

krakek

So I got a nice set of RAM (2x BLM2K8G40C18U4B), which work fine in the XMP, is it possible to improve timings rather than frequency without loosing stability?

Current system. CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X; MoBo: Gigabyte X570S Aorus Master; RAM: 2x Crucial Ballistix MAX 2x8 GB (BLM2K8G40C18U4B); GPU: RX 6900 XT Gigabyte Aorus Master; case: Fractal Design Meshify-2; Storage: Samsung 980PRO 1TB NVMe SSD + 2x Samsung 980 1TB NVMe SSD; PSU: Seasonic Focus GX-850; Cooling: Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360.

Yes, it just takes forever to dial in the timings and test every single step.

What would be the best approach?

 

Just decriment one, test, see if stable?

That is the method I go for. RAM overclocking/timing is very finnicky and extremely annoying if you got nothing else to do. I assume you already found this guide?

No, but thanks for it. Looking into doing OC in general.
