Default Did I get wrong mobo?

I ordered a mobo that is 770-C45 with DDR3 support. But I got a 770T-C45 which only supports DDR2 packaging says it all. Some stickers saying it is 770-C45. But I'm unsure which mobo did I get. And I cannot test it because I don't have case, ram, PSU and HDD. I can open it and look at it. But how do I find out if it is 770T or 770?

Who's the manufacturer of the motherboard? Sorry, I'm not too good with random model numbers lol.

A lot of motherboards are pretty much the same, but have some features disabled. Saves the manufacturer having to re-design etc.

So, you may have a "light" and cripped version of the same board which only supports DDR2.

Contact the vendor and ask them to send you the right unit? If they refuse file a complaint with your credit card company and have all supporting documentation ready. The vendor at this point is in the wrong as they sent you the wrong item.

Good luck!
