DDR3 is not expensive as you all think it is.

It has come down a lot in price in the last few months.

New technology? Sorta. Expensive? No.

That may be, but you have to buy all new ram, and your current ram is unused, and you either have to eat it, or sell it, probably at a loss.

So if I were building a new computer from scratch, DDR3 isn't too big a deal, but when you are just transplanting the mobo and cpu, adding all new ram turns it from a medium cost upgrade to a high cost upgrade.
