There is supposed to be a new bios within a week to fix the Micron D9 issues.
My voltage was always 2.1v - 2.2v... My OCZ was 2.1v so I initially left it at that... I think that when you change your memory it might be best to 'Load optimized defaults' in bios instead of thinking that you can just pop them in and the DS3 will just adapt to the new memory... Granted, I never did load defaults but from the 7-8 restarts I did trying different speeds the DS3 eventually liked my 450MHz settings with the Crucial Anniversary...
I am happy and I know that this is SOLID memory that won't be my bottleneck. Don't be bummed, you bought great memory as the 4 pages in this thread can attest to.... Now I may just be tempted to switch to an Asus P5B-Deluxe like some of the people in this thread :p: but the DS3 is a great board and I really like it... and hopefully next week after the bios update I will be cranking up this memory to where it was meant to go!
