Can i use ddr3 ram in a ddr2 slot

I'm pretty sure it was a joke fella's, no need to hate. If it wasn't, then I have to say that was pretty damn retarded. Best you not start attacking other members when I've tried not to offend you, son. I don't know if it's a fight you're starting or a fight you're trying to start, but if I were you I'd keep my mouth shut, tofu boy.

Nope, you're excatly mistaken, is that what they teach you at ITT Tech? Don't listen to these jokers, some people just don't know what they're talking about.

I'm pretty sure that the keys are placed differently too. However, I might be slightly mistaken about that. Comparing 2 different ram technologies and PCIe 1. You might as well tell me that a person is able to swap an intel socket for a and make that work, that's just how silly that is. Yeah, that's what I thought. As far as basic PCB layout, they are exactly identical, except with a key moved slightly up I believe it's about the position of DDR 1 However, as far as layout goes, that's were the party stops.

If the key's weren't located differently, it might of been a possibility that it could of worked with Nehalem. Since the memory controller is located in the northbridge, it's designed so that it will only work with what it was made for So if it was made for DDR2, it would only read DDR2.

With Nehalem having an integrated memory controller, I guess there might of been a possibility of getting it to work if they were keyed the same. Even then, I highly doubt that. Oh, and by the way, PCIe 1. I am ending this discussion right now. I am amazed that this discussion was even on going after we finished posting earlier lol. That is different. I will not getting into a belittling flaming war like you seem to be trying to start. Create a free Team What is Teams? Learn more. Ask Question.
