DDR3 graphic will work on DDR2 Board?
Yes, it should without a problem. Video cards have their own memory, and it doesnt matter if the video memory is a different type to the motherboard memory.
Will A video card whit DDR3 work whit A DDR2 motherboard?
GPU memory is independent of the motherboard that runs its own memory. You can have only one type of memory on a motherboard, ie. DDR3, and have a graphics card with built in DDR5 memory. Short answer is yes, they are independent of each other.
What component must be installed in a ddr2 dimm slot on a motherboard?
Memory Ram
Can a motherboard installs different size DIMM memory?
No. A motherboard will specify what type of memory it supports. The DIMM slot for DDR,DDR2 and DDR3 have different footprints.
Does ddr2 memory work in a ddr motherboard?
Unfortunately not. DDR has a different amount of pins compared to a stick of DDR II. Also the slot position is slightly different. Hope this helps Be Safe Cadishead Computers
Will a video card with DDR3 memory work with DDR2 desktop memory?
Yes. These memories are independent of each other. Just make sure it uses the correct type of slot and that the power supply you have will be sufficient to power it
Can you use ddr3 memory with ddr2 chipset?
Unfortunately, no. DDR RAM will not work in a DDR2 motherboard, and DDR2 RAM will not work on a DDR3 motherboard. There are a few motherboards that have slots for both DDR and DDR2, so it is conceivable that there could be motherboards with slots for both DDR2 and DDR3.
Is PC2-6400 800 MHz compatible with ddr2 533 memory?
I just put a PC2 6400 in the slot that had DDR2 533. The motherboard beeped when I turned the computer on. This beeping is an indication that the memory is not installed. Therefore in my case the answer is no.
Is DDR3 graphics card works with DDR2 mobo?
Short answer: yes it will work.The DDR3 memory on the graphics card is mounted in the GPU's PCB. Power regulation and clock signals for that memory is regulated by the GPU.The DDR2 memory on the motherboard is a completely separate situation with the voltage and clock signal being regulated on the motherboard. The two memory banks have little, if anything to do with each other.A PCIe GPU will work in any PCIe motherboard slot.
Ddr 400 will run in ecs l7vta2 v2.0 motherboard?
Yes, DDR 400 memory will work in that motherboard, however only at a maximum speed of 333MHz. The memory will be underclocked to the maximum speed the motherboard can handle. Be sure not to try to put in DDR2 memory, as they are physically different and will not fit.
Is DDR3 memory backward compatible with DDR2 and DDR?
AnswerNo. DDR3 is not backward compatible with DDR2 and DDR. e.g. DDR3 has 1.5V power, DDR2 needs 1.8V and DDR needs 2.5V power. In terms of standard motherboard slots also the notch or the key for different memory modules is at different place for the three type of memory thus preventing any accidental insertion in memory slots which can damage the memory and or the motherboard. More Information:Gateway Tech Support said their Gateway MD7820u Notebook is compatible with both.SODIMM DDR3 might have the same pins as SODIMM DDR2.
If you are throwing away an old computer can you still use its memory on a new computer?
Absolutely. Considering your new computer's motherboard supports the same type of ram. I'm assuming you have a ddr2 ram compatible computer and that your purchasing a new computer with a ddr2 compatible motherboard.
