Not according to the ABIT website it can't.

I wouldn't get DDR3 for my Abit motherboard anyway unless i was getting a completely new system.

It's saying the memory controller supports DDR3, not that your motherboard supports it.

Figured it was too good to be true LOL

What RAM would you guys recommend? I want to max it out with 8GB

more of the same? you could upgrade to 1066 or something but the real world performance will be negligable. Get more drr2 800 and then save the other money towards a new mobo/ram/cpu pack

In my Quad GT needed some more volts but its running happy enough.
