Sperm cooking/wait time

RC

Am I right in thinking (I think I read it somewhere but can’t find it anywhere) that sperm needs to be inside for a certain amount of time to mature into being capable of conception? I’m probably not wording it correctly. In other words, you won’t be able to get pregnant if you ovulate and sperm arrives just after because it’s not had time to mature. Am I getting this all wrong??? I feel like it’s not true because I can’t find this anywhere else. Any ideas?
