Abstract: The reduced ring order (rr-order) is a natural partial order on a reduced ring $R$ given by $rl{e}_{extrr}s$ if $r^2=rs$. It can be studied algebraically or topologically in rings of the form $extC(X)$. The focus here is on those reduced rings in which each pair of elements has an infimum in the rr-order, and what this implies for $X$. A space $X$ is called rr-good if $extC(X)$ has this property. Surprisingly both locally connected and basically disconnected spaces share this property. The rr-good property is studied under various topological conditions including its behaviour under Cartesian products. The product of two rr-good spaces can fail to be rr-good (e.g., $$), however, the product of a $P$-space and an rr-good weakly Lindel"of space is always rr-good. $P$-spaces, $F$-spaces and $U$-spaces play a role, as do Glicksberg's theorem and work by Comfort, Hindman and Negrepontis.
