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 is very stable again this week, and there was only a single noticeable price cut to report. Geil Ultra-X PC3200 512-MB fell by $20, and although there was also a few smaller price drops, a big $23 increase to Geil Ultra-X PC4400 512-MB helped cancel that out. In terms of overall price movement, this chart showed an aggregate increase of $15, making it a tough week for single module DDR buyers.
