What FSB would be of DDR 3. I think from 533 mhz to 800 mhz is DDR2 ??

You are very right my frnd ..

The DDR3 SDRAM devices will offer data transfer rates up to 1600 Mbps (megabits per second)

Intel G35/P35 or better known as 'Bearlake' chipsets are the ones supporting DDR3.Since current boards already support Quad Core,its common sense that the boards based on P35/G35 will support Quad Core.
Motherboards based on these chipsets are just around the corner,not yet launched.Mostly they will be launched in DDR2 models first and then DDR3 ones for better acceptance from the consumers.
DDR3 will debut with speeds of 800,1000,1066,1333 MHz
Later on DDR3 will come in 1600MHz. As was the case with DDR2,Jedec specs have horrible latencies for them.IIRC 1600MHz ones will have CAS 9 :D
Nothing to worry though,performance memory makers will do some extremely high binning and get Kits with lower latencies at high speeds out but it will take time.
DDR3 is rated to work at 1.5V
Expect 4GB kits to be common in the near future and at affordable rates.The future is exciting :D

Yeah ECS has come out witha mobo based on P35 chipset (ECS P35T-A) which supports both DDR2 as well as DDR3 mem types,but only one mem type can be used at a time.
these new chipsets from Intel will hav native support for 45nm fabricated proccies.
the best of all these new chipsets will be X38 which will sport support for only DDR3 and dual pci-e x16 gfx slots.X38 will repplace Intel 975 chipset.

wat do u mean by onboard memory???:confused:
P5N32-E SLI supports a max of 8GB of installed mem.
as far as DDR3 & Quad Core r concerned,u'll hav to wait 4 bout a year before prices drop and they become mainstream.
