High-End Memory Prices - Week of January 8, 2007

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 chart is back to its old tricks, and shows extremely stable prices across the board. The largest price drop was a measly $6 cut to Kingston HyperX PC3200 1-GB, and there were only six total decreases in the entire chart. There wasn't exactly a deluge of higher priced DDR modules either, and a $10 jump to the cost of Crucial Ballistix PC4000 512-MB was the largest, and one of only four price increases in the listings. The aggregate chart movement reflected this consistent pricing trend, and the single-module DDR listings dropped by a total of only $4 in this guide.
