Phenom Motherboard questions (Re RAM)

With the AMD Phenon Multicore chips being released I have 3 questions that can be bundled together and a lot of People will be asking the same soon on all the Forums as they upgrade.

The first is....
As the Phenom Processor is Very Powerful(8 Ghz and more) What will be the Minimum RAM spec to cope with the output?
The New (AM2+) Motherboards are a Minimum 8GB RAM Capacity Max For now is 16 GB The older Current AM2 Boards are maxed at 4GB

And the 2nd is
What Speed value RAM Will be needed to Run with these Processors
and B) I Note the New Board supports the 16 GB RAM Yet there are only 4 slots on the Images .Question How do you shoehorn 16 GB of RAM into a space like that?


Q3
What Wattage PSU will be needed to Power this setup?
