Good choice.. Be made aware you may need a beefy PSU to power that lot

Agreed, no need to get a top of the range 590 SLI board. Just get an Abit Ultra (MB-096-AB) or MSI Platinum (MB-070-MS). Wonder when we'll get AM2 crossfire boards.

Yes, you need DDR2. If you don't have that (or don't want to buy it) then consider a Socket 939 spec.

any socket 939 specs then?
