For those of you who have DDR3 2000Mhz on this board, what is your tRFC timing?
My RAM timings are:
9-10-9-27 100tRFC 1T.
I had to set the tRFC manually to 100.  If I had it AUTO, it would be 200 for tRFC.  My old DDR3 1600 tRFC was 88 with AUTO settings.
Thx.

    Becareful my  Dominators 2k profile is 8-9-8-24-88-2T.   I would use CPU-Z to check your XMP profile.   usually if you're running 6gbs you can get away with 88 and 2T @ 2000mhz.   But i know for a fact the dominators have to be run at 2T.   it mostly depends on the IMC too.  So check CPU-Z.   Use the factory timings.

    My CPUZ XMP-2000 profile:
    rRC = 50
    Command Rate = 2T.
    Is the rRC same as tRFC?

    Not the same, as shown by below : a search for rCR didn't help sorry

    tRFC (and tRC) is also given in AIDA64. No, they are not the same.
    My corsair XMS3 1600s, 9-9-9-24-2t, say 88 for tRFC, 41 for tRC.
    My new Mushkin 1600s, 7-8-7-24-1t, say 128 for tRFC, 31 for tRC.
    If there is a place to enter tRC in EVGA BIOSes, I haven't identified it. I think Crusheddream is right about 2t, in your case thatKingKong, set 2t. I have never seen any CL9 mem that was 1t.

    its actually a speed thing mine up to 1600 can run 1T anything over that is recommended 2T no idea why my guess would be the IMCs on the i7s not all being equal.  The way it was explained to me by Kmoore is 2T gives the IMC a little longer to lock onto the specific memory bank.  1T is faster but will you ever notice it probably not.  Just follow the XMP profile for your RAM. What RAM is it exactly you are trying to setup?  That would help a lot.   for 2k mhz use 88 for 1800mhz range use 88 1600 use 74.   Those are the generally excepted values.

    It looks like tRFC is four times tRC, mine 50x4 = 200.
    KMore 36x4 = ~143
    I have these sticks: http://www.newegg.com/Pro...x?Item=N82E16820220543
    As for the Command rate, I have it AUTO and it sets as 1T.  No issues with 1T though.
    I ran memtest86 5+ hrs at 9-10-9-27 100, 1T with no errors.

    My tRFC is 88, tRC is 40 and my timings are 6-10-6-25 with a cr of 1.
     
    But that is only at 1996Mhz though, never was good at math, stupid unlocked multiplier 
     
     
    EDIT: that is on a classified3, if it matters to ya OP.

    Not true. As you can see from my post above (RE: Corsair XMS3), and wdflyer's post, tRFC is not four times tRC. I am only reporting what AIDA64 reports as the programmed spd XMS profile is. What's more:
     
    Wikipedia: Memory timings
     
    That page says "TRC = TRAS + TRP"
    And that's apparently wrong too!

    As for the Command rate, I have it AUTO and it sets as 1T.  No issues with 1T though.
    I ran memtest86 5+ hrs at 9-10-9-27 100, 1T with no errors.

    Yeah, the first time you fold you will BSOD. Memtest is only a preliminary test, it is not a last-word test, LinX or Prime95 blend does a MUCH better job of testing memory for that sort of thing. Remember this when you get your unexpected BSOD someday.
