Rimm vs Dimm

[maxtlemntIL]

I'm new to the computer building deal. I was wondering if you can use Dimm compatible slots for Rimm memory? If not, what is a good motherboard that can support a Intel Duo Core processor, and overclock "compatible" with Rimm compatible slots?

Rimm memory is RDRAM and Dimm is DDR, so not sure what you are trying to find out?

Plenty of boards are great for a core Duo CPU, but none will support Rimm/RDRAM Memory

More specific about this memory is needed if that is not what you was asking

Don't buy RIMM :P

I got caught out with this about 7 or 8 years ago. RIMM was supposed to be the future of RAM.. It was, and still is, overpriced for what it is.. Stick with DDR 2 and 3 RAM.

If anyone wants to counter that, please explain where/how RIMM is better, because I hated it.. It was slow, had to be bought in pairs (and you were talking about £200 for either 128 or 256Mb and it was unstable.
