The new mobo says that it "accommodates 2 DDR (184 pin 2.5V) + 2 SDR
(168 pin 3.3v) DIMM sockets...." Does this mean that I cannot use my
old RDRAM in the new board?


Yes. RDram is proprietary technology that intel was trying to push at one
time, but nobody with half a brain bought into it. Thus, hardly any
motherboards support it.


That's IBM for you... So, since I'll need to purchase new RAM is
there any particular difference between the two types this board
supports? Is one faster, or cheaper, or whatnot?

Cheers,
Will
