they will work in dual channel but u need to set their speed to the same mhz

DDR2-800 for both should work fine

they will work no problem... only issue will be that the limit if any ( for overclocking) will be the lower limit memory (8000) will determine settings... as in a chain is only as strong as the weakest link ;) ;) ;)
