ASUS offers the A8N-SLI series, tho looks like the 'Premium' doesn't support X2 dual cores..strange .AMD CPU's have their memory controllers on-die(inside the CPU) and do not support DDR2 RAM at this time. It has nothing to do with the mobo or chipset. If you are building a gaming machine with SLI, make sure you have a powerful quality PSU. I would suggest 550Watts or more. Some reasonably priced quality names are Antec and Enermax. I would also suggest GB RAM to compliment your SLI and dual-core. Be aware that games that are optimized for dual-core tech are non-existant at this point, so your systems weak link may be the CPU. The San Diego core will outperform your dual core in most cases where games are concerned.
