i need a motherboard that can support up to 24GB(for home) DDR3 and can support Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83GHz 1333FSB 12MB Cache processor

8GB DDR3, best I can find on Newegg. All the others are for Core i7.

First of all, why would you need 24 gigs of ram?
And instead of getting that processor, get the i7 if you're going to be using DDR3 rams.

1st of all i was going to host a private server(home pc) and secondly my country sells i7 vry expensive

Protip: no application, server software or otherwise, will ever use 24GBs of RAM ever unless you have some serious memory leaks/optimization problems going on. Realize that, with most games, each active user will typically use no more than 3-5MB of RAM at any one time. Unless you expect thousands of simultaneous players on any any given time, 80% of that RAM will go underutilized in all likelihood.

Also, why would you want DDR3 RAM over DDR2 RAM? If you're not going to be running it in tri-channel mode (something that no LGA775-based-systems, yours included, can utilize), DDR2 RAM actually performs better than DDR3 RAM thanks to it's much lower latencies.

It's dual vs tri-channel. If you're running tri-channel RAM in dual-channel mode, what's the point of ever having gotten the tri-channel RAM when cheaper dual-channel RAM would perform just as well, if not better?

Then there's the issue of speed. A DDR2 DIMM clocked at 800MHz with latencies of 4-4-4-12 is approximately equal in data transfer rates to a DDR3 DIMM clocked at 1600MHz with latencies of 8-8-8-24 however a DDR2 DIMM clocked at 800MHz with latencies of 5-5-5-15 would perform slightly slower than DDR3 RAM clocked at 1333MHz with latencies of 7-7-7-21.

Really, though, you won't notice any difference whatsoever between the two technologies unless the clock speed of DIMMs are ridiculously low and the latencies ridiculously high. Just get whichever can be found cheaper and invest however much you may have saved into something that's actually useful.
