DDR is more expensive than DDR2 nowadays. Which really sucks because my RAM modules can only take on DDR.

There is no other way to be able to shift to using DDR2 without replacing the mother board, right?

How much do DDR2 and DDR rams cost in your area?

You have to get a new motherboard if you intend to use DDR2 RAM.
You can't insert them in old DDR sockets.

DDR costs twice of DDR2.
