High-End Memory Prices - Week of September 17, 2007By SharkyExtreme.com Staff September 18, 2007The 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 listings are mostly stable this week, but we do find one entry showing a noticeable price decrease. Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC4000 512-MB fell by $21, shaving off a good portion of its original price, but the next-largest drop was only $9, hitting Mushkin Hi-Perf PC4000 1-GB. Thankfully, there was absolutely no activity on the other end of the list, and in the absence of price increases, the overall chart dropped by an aggregate total of $40. The most popular option again this week was to have a "0" in the Price Change column, and the vast majority of listings went along with this trend.
