hello i did some research on my side to have better performance from my RAM in game apart from the cas latency i have trouble finding reliable information on timings i have a 4080 i play in 4K but despite everything it is a very powerful card that even on a game like Plague Tale Requiem is always beyond 80 fps and i often feel drops of fps i Know that improving the timings of the RAM can help to have better low fps not so much for the average so here my question is what are the best timings to improve to have better low fps that's really what i want having +5 fps at 150 fps i don't care thank you
PS: If it can help you here are my specs
rtx 4080,ryzen 7 5700X,16 go ram 3600 mhz full specs of my ram i don't know if they are good or not i guess good enough if my system is perfectly stable for hours now with everything https://zupimages.net/up/23/10/8jkw.png
edit: my def timing was 18-22-22-22-64 now it is 16-18-18-18-36 i also modified trc to 36 trrds to 4 trrdl to 4 tfaw to 16 trdrdsc-l to 3 and twrwrsc to 3 this is perfectly stable many hours with prime95 and memtest combined 0 errors i tried again to improve cas latency with 14-16-16-16-34 but memtest failed in 1 min now what would be the best set back to default all secondary and tertiary timings to try c14 or leave it as it is now
original timings :https://zupimages.net/up/23/10/efz3.jpg https://zupimages.net/up/23/10/u7lx.jpg

Your minimum fps is not going to improve to any noticeable extent past this point.
 
RAM timing is micro optimizing. You're not going to see much improvement FPS wise from getting into the nitty gritty with them.

Do you already have (smart memory access) SAM / resizebar enabled?

Improving tRFC may help in your ram overclock as well but I wouldn't expect any dramatic increase in fps.
