You recently purchased a CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB RAM package with two 8GB modules. You're considering upgrading your motherboard and wondering if DDR3 is significantly slower compared to DDR4.

You can find DDR3 kits that surpass the standard DDR4 2133MHz, but I prefer DDR4 when possible.

For the latest advancements, stick with DDR4 instead of newer options.

^ Yes, different generations have varying mounting slots across the dimm. You can't apply DDR3 to any new device and vice versa.

It doesn't matter if it's slower or old, as long as it works within current systems—different connectors mean it won't fit.

It's true that nearly all recent Intel hardware uses DDR4 memory only.
