Memory timings are in Clock Cycles, not Nanoseconds. A CAS Latency of "9" on DDR3 means 9 cycles, not 9 nanoseconds.

DDR3-1600 CL9 = 1.25ns per clock = 11.25 delay

But if you can overclock that memory to 1800...

DDR3-1800 CL9 = 1.1ns per clock = 10ns delay

And lets look at performance:

DDR2-1200 CL5 = 1.66ns per clock = 8.3ns delay

DDR3-1866 CL7 = 1.07ns per clock = 7.5ns delay

As stated in the other thread, it was a notation issue, and I went ahead and removed it instead of adding Hz notations. But thanks for pointing it out.
