They told me to go with the higher latency #s so this is it.

CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10 - Newegg.com

It was They, not WHS

You'll likely have to lower the frequency to tighten (lower) the CAS.

No, they told me to go higher WHS told me to go lower, hence Now ya tell me.

Oh well, like you say, I can always change the timings, right.

It will depend largely on how good your specific CPU is. Some IMCs (Internal Memory controller) are better than others within the same group of CPUs.

Higher frequency-lower CAS is the way to go.

Well 10-10-10-27 is not great, but the higher the speed, the higher the latency. That's the way it is.

This one is a tad better, but most are worse.

Should I change it to these ?

Corsair Vengeance CMZ16GX3M2A1600C9 16GB Memory Module Kit - DDR3, 2 x 8GB, 1600MHz, CL9, DIMM, XMP Ready at TigerDirect.com


Dude picked these out.

And I bought the 3570K

CL9 is about the best you'll get with 1600 MHz, but any that have been mentioned would be good. RAM specs really don't affect system performance that much.

Thanks to everyone for your input

The RAM Dimms from Tiger are the same as the ones from Newegg (same product number). No idea why they show them with a slightly lower latency 9-9-9-24 versus 10-10-10-27
