I keep seeing people asking about DDR3. So I asked myself...each memory is different, so far. They do not fit in the same socket.
Are there mobo's out now that have DDR2 and separate DDR3 sockets?
From what I read:
Q. Can DDR3 DIMMs be plugged into DDR2 sockets or vice versa?
A. No. Memory modules (Unbuffered, Registered, Small Outline DIMMs) have a special key or notch in their connector. These keys must align with a key in the memory socket to allow the module to be inserted. All DDR3 and DDR2 module types are keyed differently.
