Hey, I am building a new cpu, and I have some questions about DDR ram.
First of all, can you use any kind of DDR ram in a new motherboard. Are most new motherboards compatible with even the generic DDR stuff? I ask this because I am thinking about buying some of the cheaper DDR ram pieces. I was just wondering if the hardware has upgraded from what it used to be.
Basically what I am asking is this: Is ram still picky about which motherboard it will work in? SD RAM is this way, is DDR ram the same way?
