Hi Folks

I'm thinking of upgrading my ram from DDR2 to DDR3 and i checked on Everest and it says it does support it: Supported Memory Types: DDR2-667 SDRAM, DDR2-800 SDRAM, DDR3-800 SDRAM, DDR3-1066 SDRAM, DDR3-1333 SDRAM


However, DDR2 and DDR3 both have a different key notch so DDR3 would not fit on the board. Why is Everest stating this if the ram won't fit?
