For 8GB, there is only one possible choice...

However, I must say that I only have experience with this board:
http://www.tyan.com/products/html/tomcatk8e.html

Which only goes up to 4GB.

My experience with Tyan boards are on the 2865 (K8E) above and 2881. I 
have had effectively zero crashes on these boards which I presume to 
translate to other Tyan boards made for AMD processors.

So I better make it clear that I was thinking of dualCore Opterons...I 
don't know if the socket 939 AMD X2 processors support 8GB of RAM. I 
only know that you can use a 939 X2 processor on the Tyan 2865 which has 
a 939 socket.
