I'm looking at upgrading to the new Skylake processors but don't have the money to upgrade my ram at the moment and i was wondering if my DDR3 Ram would be compatible with the Gigabyte Z170MX gaming 5 mother board. Any help?
There are only 4 Z170 motherboards that support DDR3 RAM. The Z170MX Gaming 5 isn't one of them.
Here are the motherboards that you will have to choose from: http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/compare/asrock-motherboard-z170gamingk4d3%2Casus-motherboard-z170med3%2Casus-motherboard-z170pd3%2Cgigabyte-motherboard-gaz170hd3ddr3/
