Would this A-DATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 work with my Gigabyte GA-8I915P Duo-A mobo? I'm confused by the RAM speeds on the mobo and the A-Data.

Looks like that mobo has a pair of DDR dimm slots, and a pair of DDR2 dimm slots. An hold hybrid motherboard to fill a gap from long ago?
Yes, those A-Data modules will work. They are rated at DDR2-800 speed, the board will just run them at a max of DDR2-533 speed. They will work fine underclocked.
Maybe there are some cheaper DDR2-533 or 667 modules that would work just as well...?

the motherboard will automatically underclock it for you
