1st of all you don't know what your talking about!!
this motherboard is the best DDR3 memory motherboard out there with crazy overclocking ability..! if you did not make enough research on this mobo then you only have your self to blame. speaking of DDR3 memory , there are 2 versions on the X38 intel chipsets that ASUS tweaked. one is for the new DDR3 memory and the other for DDR2. If the price of DDR3 is too high in the meantime (which i completely agree with you on this) and you still wanted to take advantage of the X38 that enables crossfire configuration then you could have just got the ASUS Maximus formula or the P5E motherboard that uses DDR2 memory!
Needless to say that after the x38 chipset there won't be anymore DDR2 memory so you do the math.
if anybody is interested to know more about this amazing motherboard check out anadtech.com or tomshardware reviews of this motherboard or google ASUS P5E3.

Update the BIOS for Core 2 Duo CPU to work.

BIOS is old, unable to access Core 2 Duo CPU.....
Had to install older P4 CPU, flash BIOS, then install Core 2 Duo.
Asus should get their head out of the sand. They print that the MB can take Core 2 Duo, but they don't mention that you have to update the BIOS to make things work! Dumbbells.
The CPU Cooler can be no larger than 92mm x 92mm due to cooling cage that surrounds the CPU.
Other than this stupidness, the board is great.

I got this system to build a new VISTA based system. It had more than was needed, so it made a great foundation. This system was very easy to over-clock and runs very stable. Unfortunately I can't say that for VISTA! I ended up putting XP back on this system and it runs great. It comes with XP and VISTA drivers, so you can go either way. I would highly recommend this motherboard for the foundation on your new system!
