A system and method of performing microelectronic chip timing analysis, wherein the method comprises identifying failing timing paths in a chip; prioritizing the failing timing paths in the chip according to a size of random noise events occurring in each timing path; attributing a slack credit statistic for all but highest order random noise events occurring in each timing path; and calculating a worst case timing path scenario based on the prioritized failing timing paths and the slack credit statistic. Preferably, the random noise events comprise non-clock events. Moreover, the random noise events may comprise victim/aggressor net groups belonging to different regularity groups. Preferably, the size of random noise events comprises coupled noise delta delays due to the random noise events occurring in the chip.
