I'd ditch that motherboard with the Nforce chipset for an AMD (SB750)...since you have an AMD chip and you want a 5770....
Also, most motherboards will have 7.1 on it (that crappy motherboard only had 5.1)....so that will save you 90 bucks that you could put towards everything else. personally I'd get a larger drive and not worry about it being WD So, scrap that board -use the 90 you'd save on the sound card - and get a new motherboard....

Can anyone suggest a motherboard which supports my CPU, DDR2 memory, and crossfire?

GIGABYTE GA-MA790X-UD4P
Considered by many to be the best in its price range. It will do all that you ask and more.

There are two purple SATA ports. Is there a reason for the color difference?

Those are Gsata, Gygabyte SATA. I had this board and it is a great board. Easy to set up SATA, easy to use, great board.(Learned how to set up RAID on this board with the help of OC members. Turns out the the instructions in the manual are spot on and easy to follow) The others are Orange they are normal SATA, I believe the difference is how much "info" they can carry in the pipe. The GSATA are 1.5G, and the SATA are 3Gbs from what I remember. If I am wrong some one please correct me.
