CL2 vs. CL3

[katdak]

Hey All,
Have a quick question on Cas LAtency speeds.
How much of an improvement are the 2225 speed memory sticks over the 3... sticks?

Newegg has a few of the 222 sticks and I have read that this is a fast stick. Im wondering how much faster they are.
I will be playing alot of EQ2 soon and am thinking of buying new memory.

My specs are Abit IS7 MB, Radeon 9800 pro, P4 2.8 (800 fsb)

Thanks in advance for the help.

CL2 can EASILY provide a 2% advantage over CL3 IN GAMES.

CAS 2 also speeds up boot time from CAS 3

Low CL will provide an more noticable difference when used with AMD athlon CPU's.

I have heard people say that low timings are not that important with Athlons...
