DDR3/DDR2 price crossover reached
April 8, 2010
The day is finally here - DRAMExchange.com quoted that the session average price of 1Gbit DDR3-800 parts on April 2nd was $3.03 while 1Gbit DDR2-800 was $3.04.
Only DDR2 memory manufacturers will be celebrating... you should realize that this point has been reached because of rising prices on DDR2 to meet the DDR3 prices, not because of falling DDR3 prices. DDR3 has been holding relatively steady in the $2.50 to $3.00 per gigabit range over the last year, while DDR2 prices for 1Gbit have risen from around $1.00 a year ago to over $3.00 today.
