Does my motherboard support ddr3 ram?

[TechyAlex]

So im gonna buy a new motherboad probably a Asrock H110M-HDS or a MSI H110M PRO-VD and i have 4,00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 669MHz (9-9-9-24) will it support it?

You need DDR4

No, the H110 chipsets supports only DDR4. Google both products, and you will see.

No, neither do.

There are boards that support DDR3 but its recommended that you use lower voltage DDR3L as DDR3 can damage Skylake CPU's

The chipset supports no memory whatsoever since the memory controller is built into the CPU and Skylake supports both DDR3 and DDR4. Since the two standards have different slot pinouts though, most motherboards only have DDR4 slots.

So no they cant support ddr3?Is there a motherboard then to support a i3 6100 and ddr3?

I don't think you should worry about your current DDR3 ram..all you have is 4 gig, and you're going to have to buy ram regardless so just go with DDR4

Yes but its recommend you dont as normal ddr3 1.5v can damage the CPU, you should only use DDR3L 1.35v

Is the Gigabyte GA-H110M-A using the same ddr4?

There is next to no DDR4 made specifically for any one motherboard.

As stated previously, the vast majority of Skylake motherboards are DDR4. As also pointed out by someone else, 4GB is far too little for a modern PC, so you need new RAM anyways and should simply get DDR4. (Unless you only plan to play minesweeper, basic web browsing and other trivial stuff on it.)
