Default RAM timing probs


PC config
amd athlon II x4 630
msi 785gm e51 mobo
4GB ddr3 RAM corsair 1333mhz
9800GT 1GB card
500+160 GB hdd

I had a 2GB ddr3 1333mhz ram stick earlier, and later added the other 2GB stick..Both are the same model and brand-corsair

The thing that stumps me is that even though both have same timings, their TRFC values are diff in BIOS one is 107 and other is 75

Is this ok? can two ram sticks of same model and brand have diff trfc values or was I sold a defective ram module??

Please help, thanks

It won't effect performance but it might effect stability.
It can be controlled from BIOS.

Set them both to 75/107. (Not all will have this option)

since you have bought the ram try running some heavy mem hungry apps and games for 3-4 hours constantly and if your system is stable then there's nothing to worry about.
