No, CAS latencies in SPD remain consistent regardless of overclocking.

Hello, the SPD latencies do drop when you slightly overclock them to hit 3600 MHz. It seems the 30£ investment could be worthwhile if it leads to a better configuration. Your Corsair kit runs at 3200 MHz and supports XMP 2.0, which should work well with your setup. Pairing it with a 3900X and an older 1080 Pro should give you a solid upgrade path. Your gaming and streaming needs are covered, and the audio setup with your Samsung TV looks fine. Just double-check if the Anthony mentions this—your presentation skills are impressive!
When the motherboard uses the XMP profile with a custom frequency, it generally maintains the expected frequency-to-timings relationship. Still, this doesn't guarantee performance or stability. The decision to use a 3200MHz CL16 kit instead of a higher frequency like 3600MHz CL18 is due to reliability concerns. It's not recommended to purchase cheap options; opt for better quality or consider alternative brands if budget is tight.
I’ll choose the AMD versions they recommend, especially at 3600mhz. Thanks.
