    Ya its pretty bad. All AMD memory I have seen labelled as such has been horrible :/ Most definitely skip on this one.



    The reason they are slow and loose timings is because it is meant to be "100% compatible", which means it conforms 100% to JEDEC specifications. Unfortunately, no one cares about running RAM at JEDEC specs unless you are buying a server. All good RAM in the consumer world is sold out of spec because it is much faster than the spec is for. No one here should be buying RAM to official specs.
