Changing DDR2 for DDR3

Hello,
Can I remove all my DDR2 chips and replace them with DDR3?
Thanksw

No, DDR 2 and DDR 3 have different controllers. You need a new mobo that supports DDR3.

Depends on the motherboard. Mostly, mk is right, but there are a few motherboards that will accept both DDR2 and DDR3 RAM.

Thanks. That answers my questions, but, I didn't see the gold cup that I am supposed to click.

Thanks
