High-End DDR Memory Prices - Week of February 23, 2004

Single Module DDR

The following chart outlines prices on name-brand, single module DDR prices. We've taken a cross-section of the top name brands (as voted by Sharky readers), and when possible, used the highest-end module possible. In the case of Corsair, this translates into "LL" or Low Latency, while Kingston HyperX, Mushkin "Level 2" (L2), and OCZ Enhanced Latency "EL" modules are also featured. Not all DDR clock speeds are available at these enhanced memory formats, and some of our PC4000 and up listings naturally use more standard timings and brand names. Tracked DDR is in the PC2700 to PC4400 range, but each vendor may have a different "high-end" speed, and might not offer all of the clock speed permutations.

The price of high-end DDR can be quite volatile, and this week's guide has a few prime examples. To start off, the price of Corsair PC2700 1-GB dropped substantially, and it's now within striking distance for those who want to take a shot. Kingston HyperX PC3700 512-MB continues to be a strong deal, and is now lower priced than PC3200 equivalent. The only real trend is that PC4000 is not moving down, and in some cases, prices increased by double-digit amounts.
