(these prices are at Newegg)
It has been about ten months now since I build my last computer. But with the recent FX-55 deal, I decided to build another, lower cost computer.
The only problem I am having is the RAM prices. In the ten months since I got my 2x1GB G.Skill RAM, it has gone UP at least $15, and that same RAM is the cheapest in the category.
While I am not looking at getting 2GB of RAM, but sticking with either a one stick GB of RAM or 2x512, I found that the cheapest I could find it is $114.99. Which hasn't gone down in price in the last 10 months, but might even have increased.
Is there a cheaper place to get RAM than Newegg? Am I missing something? Why havent RAM prices gone down, or at least stayed the same?
I am looking for something like THIS with a CAS latency of 2 (3 if the price difference is significant) if anyone wants to point me in direction of a better price.
