When I first looked at various DDR3 memory modules back in July they were running 1333MHz and had timings that ranged from 7-7-7-20 to 9-9-9-24, which didn't sound too impressive to enthusiasts. For years lower timings have played a key role when it came to performance, but with DDR3 frequency is more important. These days nearly all enthusiast memory companies offer high end memory kits at clock frequencies of 1800MHz and beyond at impressive CL7 or CL8 timings. In just a few months performance memory companies have come out with faster parts and have managed to keep the memory timings the same. The timings haven't gotten any lower though and even today people shrug off DDR3 when they hear the timings even though comparing DDR2 to DDR3 by timings is not the proper thing to do.
