High-End DDR Memory Prices - Week of March 8, 2004 - Page 3By SharkyExtreme.com Staff March 9, 2004The desktop market for registered DDR begins and ends with the Athlon 64 FX-based platforms. This is due to its Opteron-based lineage, and the Athlon 64 FX requires registered DDR, rather than standard unbuffered DDR. It has created a market need for 400 MHz PC3200 Registered DDR, and several manufacturers have jumped in to supply this enthusiast market. Due to the lower number of available registered DDR modules, we've gone a bit outside the Top 5 manufacturers, and also listed both the single module and matched pair PC3200 DDR prices. This is still mostly a niche market for desktop buyers, so overall vendor and module choice may be limited for the near future. The Registered DDR list was also quite stable, though overall prices are starting to inch up. This is especially true on the Corsair side, with these modules chocking up the largest registered DDR price gains of the week.
