AMD's can't use DDR2. well, they might be able to, but no faster than pc3200(i've heard slower with DDR2 ram)

they cant use DDR2. i think i mentioned this in ram 101 and/or CPU 101.

no need in network card onboard

unless you have some fancy fandangled nic setup then the onboard is prolly a good choice

what about Abit?!

just like ASUS: not for K8s.

Nforce is an Nvidia chipset, some Nforce 4s have SLI, but you won't see Nvidia making a crossfire chipset (I would think; it'd just be plain sense, you don't make a product that will benefit your competition).

I think it may be time to upgrade... The upgrade! My machine will soon be a 939 X2 4000+, 4x512 DDR400, and an 8600GTS.
