What is the best motherboard for the C2Q Q9550 that supports DDR3? It is hard to find one that supports DDR3. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm using an ASUS P5E3 Deluxe X38 chipset, they only sell the X48 version now (essentially the same chipset). It's a great motherboard.

unless you have already bought the cpu don't buy it. get a am3 board and a phenom 2 rather than the dead lga775 socket. ddr3 with 775 makes little difference over ddr2
