High-End DDR Memory Prices - Week of December 26, 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.

This week's single module DDR price list shows a continued downward trend, but the overall shift was even more muted than in our last update. There were only two double-digit price changes, as Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC4000 1-GB fell by $32, and Crucial PC3200 2-GB increased by $28. There were quite a few price cuts, but none of these surpassed -$7, and the aggregate chart drop was a very small $25. This is certainly better news than rising prices, but it's still tough to get excited about.
