DDR2 Motherboard

[bobafett573]

hey I saw some pretty cool DDR2 RAM on newegg.com but I couldn't find any motherboards that take that 240-pin RAM. does anyone know where i could find such a motherboard? i've heard DDR2 RAM is awesome for gaming.

You'll find it on Intel based mobo's. AMD hasn't switched to DDR2.

1.) your mobo doesn't support ddr2
2.) you'll need to intel (sucks) for ddr2
3.) how the hell is ddr2 better for gaming? it has higher bandwidth; big deal, ddr with better timings can easily reach ddr2 speeds and beyond

AMD is adding ddr2 but its for dual cores and supports DDR667

You also forgot that AMD with the on board memory controller makes up for the lost bandwidth that DDR2 has.
