OK I just bought a phenom ll x4 955 3.2 GHz black edition cpu. My current motherboard with an AM2 socket is reading it as 803mhz and dropped my wei to 4.7 from 5.3. My motherboard is the weak link I believe. I was looking at the GA-MA785GMT-UD2 AM3 785G mATX Motherboard from Gigabyte, my question is:
1. This is a DDR3 motherboard...I have 4gigs of ddr2. If I get this board will I also have to upgrade to DDR3 ram?

2. It comes with a ATi Radeon HD4200 Graphics Chipset, I have a PNY XLR8 GTS 250...will this cause some sort of conflict?
