If you shopped for RAM put into your computer to make sure your
gaming is the fastest it can be, then the lower the latency the
faster the RAM. Latency is the time when the memory controller
starts to grab a line of code, there is a delay and when RAM sends
out the line of code there is another delay. The time is takes RAM
to find and send code is called latency. So when shopping find RAM
with the lowest latency.
