hi, i'm planning to buy a i3-6100 cpu and GIGABYTE GA-H170-HD3-DDR3 mobo. Will this setup works wirh DDR3 rams? on ark.intel.com it says, i3-6100 supports only ddr3L and ddr4 rams but what about ddr3?
 
Solution
Intel recommends (and even issued a warning) using DDR3L regardless of what the mobo maker says is compatible. They say it may affect the memory controller long term. So far, I haven't heard of any problems with using DDR3, but they haven't been out very long either.
