Problem

What will happen if i use DDR3 and DDR2 RAM simultaneously on a single motherboard that suports both? Will the motherboard and Ram get damaged? Also, what will be the result of using DDR2 Ram in DDR3 slot and vice versa. Won't try such things though. Asking out of curiosity

Low Risk

Its Simple - You cant. The motherboard will refuse to power on at best, or fry the ram at worst. What mobo supports both anyway ?
