A fix for Corsair memory with Intel's new chipsets

The Tech-Report seem to have received a response from Corsair regarding certain compatibility issues with their memory modules and Intel's new i865 and i875P Pentium 4 chipsets.

"The problem is the chipset won't handle a tRCD (RAS to CAS Delay) of 2. We've done a revision of the SPD to make the LL's work on the 875 and 865 chipsets, the settings are now 2-3-2-6 by default.

We will, of course, warranty any modules with the older SPD but it should be noted that the end user can simply manually adjust the BIOS to the settings noted above."

Evidently, the issue can be fixed with a simple BIOS update, which should work for most motherboards experiencing these issues.
