DDR3 backwards compatible with DD2?

No it won't, even though DDR3 and DDR2 have 240 pins, both have different slot layouts to prevent people from using one in the wrong slot.

Tell me thats not what Mike bought...
 
That would be like trying to run PC66 memory on a PC133 board there. The memory standard is DDR3 1066 probably supporting DDR3 800 not DDR2 800.
 
Ok, I thought so. But I was just second guessing myself and thought I'd ask. Thanks guys.

NOOO... we wouldn't have been able to use his new computer and post overclock results if he had that motherboard. He got the MSI Neo2 P35, not the P35 Platinum.
