B BUGNUT Honorable Feb 19, 2012 4 0 10,510 Feb 20, 2012 #3 I just bought an ASrock N68C-GS UCC motherboard. It supports both DDR2 and DDR3. I believe to use DDR3 you must use an AM3 CPU. FYI, the N68C-GS UCC supports a max of 95 watt CPU's. I'm not sure if your CPU is 89 or 125 watts. Upvote 0 Downvote
