Hi..

The perfect motherboard to use witch supports ddr 2 and ddr 3 is the Foxconn DIGITALIFE P35AP-S..
If you can get hold of February 2008 PC Format, they do a review of 10 Motherboards and this Foxconn motherboard got the highest scores of them all! (and a great price of only R 1400.00)

It has the latest Intel 775 socket and supports ddr2 800Mhz and Ddr3 1333Mhz. Its got 2 Pci x16 slots if you decide on Sli. It has a total of 6 RAM slots and also 6 Serial ATA ports.

You wont go wrong with this beauty believe me..
