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 single module DDR price list does show a bit of movement, but there are no significant price cuts and none of them even hit the double-digit mark. The largest price drops hit Crucial PC2700 1-GB (-$7), OCZ PC3200 EL Platinum 512-MB (-$7), Crucial Ballistix PC4000 512-MB (-$6), and Mushkin PC3200 L2 512-MB (-$6), which really tells the tale for single module DDR for this week. Thankfully, along with a ton of stable listings, there were very few price increases to contend with.
