Im using Crucial Balistix 800mhz@1000 4,4,4,12 2.2v on same board and works great! If couple of mems doesn't work with your sample then i thing that u have to change board to the new one...

You wanted 2x1Gb or 2x2Gb kit of the dominators? There is a very high chance that you won't be able to find Micron ones on sale because they now put some D9 replacement like Quimonda, Powerchip, Elpida etc.
2x1Gb 8500C5DF are 100% D9 based.
As for 2x2Gb kits they usually come with some Powerchip ic's but they overclock pretty well, check the bandwidth section to see.

Yy, they overclock pretty well considering what chips they gave and the density of the chips, also they don't need much voltage.:up:
