It has finally occurred to us that the ECS P45T-AD3 is a bit of an unusual motherboard for one simple reason. This reason being of course that it only supports DDR3 memory, which as you are likely aware costs significantly more than DDR2 and offers no real performance advantages on the Core 2 platform. Although DDR3 memory has dropped significantly in price recently, it still costs roughly twice as much as DDR2 memory, making it far less cost effective.
