This week

K-byte 256MB DDR $34.99 after $10 rebate.
Question.......... What is K-byte?

Dunno what K-Byte is, but do you know what speed the RAM is at PC2100, PC2700, .....

 

[Nosferatu]

k-byte is a brand name
a generic brand though

K-Byte is associated with a company called Reptron. K-Byte has been around for awhile. I would consider their memory products as average, maybe mediocre. They normaly use generic memory chips. BB, Staples, CC and other retailers carry K-Byte memory products from time to time.

Reptron 256MB PC2100 DDR DIMM Memory. Currently sells for $99.99, so probably there is a $55 Instant rebate, and a $ 10 Mail-in rebate????

Nothing yet in their website about any other K-Byte except for a 256MB 32x64 PC 133 SDRAM Memory for $89.99. We'll find out later when the ads will be posted.

Looks like they are using Spectek memory chips. From what I understand Spectek is associated with Crucial and they use chips that did not pass the high standard of quality to be used on Crucial sticks. So they brand them as Spectek and sell them to low end memory stick makers. I guess like K-Byte.

Crucial.com 's prices are about the same as this at the moment.

I don't know the spec. The ads states
$79.99-$35 INSTANT REBATE
and - $10 mail in rebate.

My cousin once bought a stick of PC133 ram from Ubid.com....on the web it stated as Micron chip....but the memory he received has the big S on it.....so...either Ubid made a mistake, or it is micron, just under Spectek's name.....
