High-End Memory Prices - Week of March 20, 2006

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 charts did not move very much compared to our last update, and these listings showed an aggregate drop of only $8. Needless to say, the price cuts were not that common, and OCZ PC4000 EL 1-GB was the only module to drop by double digits, and even it barely qualified with a $10 cut. There were a few smaller price increases and decreases, which cancelled each other out, and left us with a very lackluster week in single module DDR. On the positive side, we did add a trio of new 1-GB PC4000 DDR modules, giving buyers more selection at the high-end.
