Second this.
DDR3 is pretty old at this point. Their speeds go from like 800 to 2133mhz, while ddr4 starts at 2133mhz.
Fairly sure you can still use DDR3 on new motherboards (that want DDR4) but they must be 1.5 volts or lower.

No, you cannot. The notch/pin count are different.

Eh just because someone has ddr3 doesn't automatically need a major update. You don't know what their other parts or needs are. Ddr4 hasn't been the go to ram for all that long. And I got a 3 year old build with ddr3 and the ram is absolutely the last of the problems in it.

I always go with GSkill or Corsair when I can. Much better RMA service and warranty if something should go wrong.
