Do socket AMD Socket 939 CPU's support DDR2 Memory?

Question

I didnt think they do, but i was looking in a ad, and it had a socket 939 with DDR2 memory, the reason i am asking is because i am building a custom computer and i need to know if DDR2 would work with it. The Motherboard, and the CPU are posted below.

Answer 2

Sorry to say but that's not possible. I haven't seen any MoBo's that have support for both DDR and DDR2. My advise is to get a new computer =P

Answer 3

Acutally, i thought, and have always built computers along the lines of, sdoes the mobo support the memory.

I know some CPU's are finicky but, why would some one build a board that the CPU wouldn't play nice with the memory?

and the board appears to support DDR and not DDR2 memory

Answer 4

Hi, hi
I don't think it will, but most important: it doesn't matter. AMD was slow to support ddr2 memory because performance gains are negligible on its processors (as opposed to Intel's). This has to do with the different arquitecture and AMD's on dye memory. So even if you could use ddr2, the results would be the same as the cheaper ddr.

Answer 5

I don't believe AMD cpu's support DDR2 memory yet. I believe its only the Intel 775 chipset that supports it so far. The Asus board is a solid board and you will not be disappointed. You also have room to upgrade to a faster CPU as prices drop or when you when the lottery.

Answer 6

The mobo and CPU are compatible but you cannot use DDR2. The mobo supports only 128 bit DDR.
For DDR2 the supported socket is AM2.

Answer 7

Hi,Hi,,
That board ,,ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe .....
WONT support DDR2

EDIT:

OOPS!!!
I got that Motherboard List from MOBOT search,,
The List is all messed up,,and ALL wrong.

My APOLOGIES,,I dont even have a good excuse for not Thinking/Checking,,,I just Stuck on STOOPID today I 'spose:)

Only AMD DDR2 Support is Sckt 940 AM2.

NO Sckt 939 ddr2 support.

<< ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Look Close at any board's Specs in the Ads,,
It will say what type of RAM it supports

184 Pin RAM ,,is plain DDR

240Pin =DDR2

Sometimes it's called PC2,as in
"PC2-4200"

Hope that helps

Answer 8

Yes, 939 is the new CPU comparing to DDR2 which is little old.

Answer 9

if you want a good motherboard , look at the machspeed mk8-939a at tiger direct .com
