  • Can anyone see into the future?

    I picked up some DDR back in September and like many others I wished I had the foresight to purchase more.

    With prices as they are at present, does anyone know when a good time to buy will be? Should we expect any price drops in the coming months?

    If I'm not mistaken we've had a poll on this subject... and the result was it'll go up. It has now... when it's likely to drop?.... I doubt very soon seeing the manufactures are just now making it back to profitability.

    Is that the consensus on planet Guru?

      RAM prices can't rise much more just look at sdram prices for example (256MB SDRAM CAS3 PC133 ~100€) so they have to come down in the near future! If I were you I would wait for a month or two!
      According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless...

        I still expect prices to rise in the short term. Even then there's no speculation about whether they'll fall. It's just as likely they'll just level off.

          It was my poll. I bought 512MB PC2100 from Crucial on the strength of it. It seems that the bigger sticks haven't moved anywhere near as much as the 256MB sticks, so they don't have quite the same premium as they once did.

          XP certainly benefitted from an extra 256, so if you need it, buy it.
