2x512MB PC4400 with TCCD chips @ Newegg, $239.93 shipped

[OCNewbie]

A little naive when it comes to RAM, so perhaps this isn't such a hot deal.

It's G.skill brand, 2x512MB (1GB) dual-channel kit of PC4400, 2.5/4/4/8 timings. Samsung TCCD chips, lifetime warranty.

Is normally $250 I think, and it's $15 off when added to cart, +$4.93 shipping, so $239.93 shipped, no rebates.

If this is warm at best I'll just remove the post.

nothing wrong with that brand according to the review of it here on anandtech, its just too expensive! in general ram is wayyyyyyy too high right now, but if your gonna spend 240 on some g skill spend like 275 and get some corsair, geil, crucial, etc....

Ok, lots of things are wrong with the above statement. First, RAM is finally starting to some down, 6 months ago you couldn't buy 1GB of anything for under $250. I would say for the money these sticks look good, especially PC4400. I personally will end up going with the 1GB PDP XBL sticks, TCCD with Brainpower PCB, seem to be overclocking very nicely. Don't waste your money with Geil, Crucial Ballistix is good RAM, and Corsair is great, but only certain sticks are worth the price premium they charge.

ram prices are still on the high end, i remember when i got my kingston hyperX 3200 1 gig kit for 190. so they still seem way too high for me, although that PDP ram you metioned does seem to be the best value as of right now. I want some of that for the new athlon 64 rig i am building.

RAM prices are just way too high. I remember last year when Officemax repeatedly had Kingston PC2100 for free after rebate! :roll:
