A lot of motherboards don't allow you to tweak the memory timings.

The settings that you wrote about aren't always an option, but there are other settings that you can tweak. CAS or cycle length can be set to either 2 or 3. 3 is more conservative & stable, while 2 is faster, but can be unstable depending on your RAM. There should also be another setting with choices of Normal, Fast, Turbo. Turbo is usually the best setting, though sometimes Fast is even better. Experiment & see what happens...
