I would suggest Gigabyte GA-K8N51GMF-9 for the motherboard, it comes with onboard graphics & PCIe slot, so best of both worlds

AMD64 does not uses DDR2 RAM, it will in the future but not now

good mobo..I got the SLI platinum (Neo4 platinum)
advantages:
i) onboard Creative SB Live 7.1! audio
ii) SLI
iii) high overclockability

disadvantages:
i) High Price
ii) Can't think of anything else!

The K8N diamond has extra sata ports/ dual gigabit ethernet / more usb
than the Neo4 Platinum

extra sata ports/ dual gigabit ethernet / more usb --what kind of advantage they give us.i think no advantage of extra sata ports & extra usb
"ii)Can't think of anything else" ----what does it mean
