Can you use ddr3 in ddr2 slot

[00101]

thread name is self explanatory. want to get ddr3 for further upgrade purposes but only have ddr2 slots on my current motherboard. Also i can get much faster ram for about $10 less than the ddr2. i hate the inflating ram prices...

No. If your board only supports DDR2 you cannot use DDR3.

all you need to do is look at the spacer gaps to see they don't line up.
