Isn't that telling you what will work?

By "incompatible", what is really meant is "the motherboard doesn't support the maximum speed of the RAM, so it will run slower -- at the max speed supported by the motherboard".
RAM which is faster than your system supports costs more for no gain, in other words.

So any RAM will work in any machine but if you get say DDR4 RAM for a motherboard that will only support DDR2 you're wasting your money?
