I'm not sure about the D9 thing but...

Tiger direct has a questionable reputation at best. If you want some serious customer service take a look at www.newegg.com

Do not get 1GB sticks of memory for 2 reasons. First, it is much harder to find a stable overclock if your using more than 2 DIMMS's. And second, if you ever want to increase your memory in the future you'll have room to upgrade without tossing any existing components.

getting 4x1 gig sticks is not cheaper than 2x2 gig sticks, I dunno where your looking but you not looking hard enough, you can get good 2x2 gig sticks for $100-130. Also 2x2 is far better to work with if you plan on oc'ing. Plus it's possible your board might not like having all slots filled (it happens alot)

There are just 3 that took me 12 seconds to find. I personally would get the crucial they have the d9 chips.

edit I didn't see the deal for $20, in that case buy the 4 gigs for 40 bucks and be done with it lol
