and isn't DDR2 pinned the same as DDR2? maybe its goign to be interchangeable? or maybe the change from DDR2 to DDR3 isn't enough to warrant a new mem controller or there could be new sempy's and A64's coming out for AM3 thats my guess they can't all be phenoms
Well, I can't comment on the photoshop thing.. I'll leave that up to other folks. But, DDR2 and DDR3 are not keyed the same way, so they're not interchangable.

DDR2 has the key closer to the middle of the slot, while DDR3 has it more offset to one side.

Heres a link to a pic of the Asus 79-T. If you compare the pic to the Asrock board you can see the difference in the key position..

But yes DDR2 is pinned the same as DDR2...
