I thought I understood RAM, but I find myself confused now. Looking at two
240-pin DDR3 SDRAM specs.

 

RAM 1: rated as DDR3 1066 with timing of 7-7-7-18

 

RAM 2: rated as DDR3 1600 with timing of 7-8-7-24

 

What I don't understand is why RAM 2 has a faster clock interface (1600MHz),
but its timing is slower! Which will be faster in a system? Any explanation
or pointer to references will help. Thank you.
