Memory Pricing Guide

High-End DDR Memory Prices - Week of May 16, 2005

By SharkyExtreme.com Staff May 19, 2005

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 PC5000 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 was quite active this week, and in addition to posting a large overall drop, it showed quite a few big price cuts as well. OCZ PC3200 EL Platinum 1-GB and Crucial Ballistix PC4000 1-GB both posted decreases of over $40, while Crucial PC3200 1-GB and OCZ PC4000 EL 512-MB dropped by more than $30. It's obvious from the list that 1-GB modules again received the lion's share of the lower prices, although there were a few higher-end PC4000 to PC5000 512-MB module that also received double-digit cuts.
