new to Mac and recently i have found a white Macbook with 2GB DDR3 RAM and 160GB hard drive for £700 from argos.co.uk, my query is whether this model actually runs DDR3

The white Macbook does not use DDR3. Only the new unibody models use DDR3.

Don't need to look at link - their product info is wrong. That's what happens when they have people entering data that don't know a thing about a product.

did check it out though- the video card specs are wrong also - the right card, but it is integrated and uses shared memory from RAM - the 719 one has the correct specs

But it has the wrong picture. I sent them a quick mail about it.

Yes, The info is actually wrong. Apple quietly updated the white MacBooks recently and they still don't have DDR3 RAM in them.
