Ddr3 question

[veeco3110]

Just out of curiousity, would my iMac which has 4 gig of ddr2 ram benefit from 4 gig of ddr3 ram? Or would it be a waste by the computer utilizing the ram as ddr2 basically ovrkill?

Thanks

If your iMac came with DDR2, it can't take DDR3.

Which iMac do you have?

There are no iMacs with DDR3. You can't use DDR3 period.

Your Mac will not accept DDR 3, its not compatible. See here

Incompatible with DDR2 motherboards (under disadvantages compared to DDR 2)
