    look how much is updated chipset (990fx)? Not much. 8xx is even compatible with BD. (some, of course)

    Thubans die when old Crucial D9 at volt 2.4 is used (my old 955 loves it!!) Sure it is exaggeration. My 790Fx dont support volt 1.35 mem so I run 1.65v on Gskill Eco as lowest setting. All this is an example when a compatible Cpu is not enough.

    Ddr4 mobos could have finer voltage regulations and other small stuffs so the new stuffs work together better. We dont know how sensitive BD IMC is for both ddr3/4. Probably less than ddr2/3.

    But im going switch to ddr4 very fast especially when I stayed in ddr2 too long before I got ddr3.
