No, they don't. A SDRAM slot is 168 pins and a DDR DIMM has an 184 pins slot, so they won't fit.
And a DDR memory moherboard will only work with DDR RAM.

Do not make illegal copies of this post :wink:

Listen to svol.

However if you don't want to by new memory now you could buy a board that has both types on it. (ie. Elitegroup,etc.) I would personally choose against that option since DDR is so inexpensive at the moment.
