im getting ready to buy a new computer and i was just had some questions.

1. will a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard suport DDR2?

2. Is DDR2 better then DDR?

3. what is better nForce4 SLI or the Ultra?

From what I can see, no it will not support DDR2
google ddr vs ddr2 to determine for yourself which you would prefer

We can fix this, but you're gonna need a butter knife, a roll of duct tape, and a car battery

Dual Channel means TWO memory controllers. DDR & DDR2 are different memory types. The specs don't state that board will support DDR2 so I assume it won't.
