Ram Timings?

Edit:I just have another question about this same setup, but I didn't feel like making a new thread about it.

Anyway, I just installed the ram today and my computer gave me the bsod about 3 hrs later and another one about 2 hrs after the first one. I am thinking that it is a small incompatibility issue since both of my dual channels are rated to run at 1333mhz, 9-9-9-24. but together they are at 1066, 8-8-8-20. Just Seems kinda odd to me. I am thinking about just setting the speed and timings manually to try to override any differences. Do you think that this might fix it? Any other ideas?

Here are links to the memory

performance jump

Are you sure? I would think that you would see a bit better performance in gaming jumping from 9 to 7 cas latency.

From what I have read elsewhere the ram will take the slowest speed, which is 9 if I understand ram right. My main concern is that it will be fighting with each other and will disable one of the pairs. I can probably overclock them if I had a need to.

When you have 1333MHz to play with 2Hz doesn't seem too big :P

The RAM won't fight itself for timings, the slowest one will be used.
