Yeah some could not, but it is on the sale Flyer Page as well, but when you look at the Normal Page it does not show the sale price, but it did last night, but not now .. so now i provided the sale page link in my second post for those people.

PPL remember this is DDR2 memory and will not run in a DDR motherboard so don't blame me for you buying it.. /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Really thats an awesome price, essentially what my ram is going for. After reading this it's a good thing ram is cheap as it's a waiste to spend extra for soemthing that performs the same across the board, regardless of the price.
DDR 2 comparison (http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=getarticle&articID=618)
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Furthermore, on the performance side, it has once again become clear that faster or slower DDR2 does not offer the performance increase for your entire system that you might have hoped for. The differences in performance situate in a 2-5% advantage for your system, across applications. For most of you it will thus not be worthwhile to invest too much in high end DDR2, as the return on investment is low. In that respect, a special recommendation has to go to the PC6400C3 Flex XLC kit, which stands head and shoulders above the others when it comes to price-performance.

Yes and it will be the same for DDR3 when it ever comes down in price, but in performance difference from DDR2 to DDR3 there is not much difference and DDR3 is like 2-3 times more costly.

Maybe in future years/months 1-2 years there will be better memory out there.

Basically what people want is bandwidth and speed.

No doubt this 2x2GB = 4GB dual channel kit is a good buy and being it is rated at 1000mhz that is fast enough for a 4GB dual channel kit of memory.

Here's the EVERYDAY price for those G.Skills sticks at a different place (http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=15380BD0409&vpn=F2-8000CL5D-4GBPQ&manufacture=G.SKILL). I may get a pair.... along with a few other things soon. /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

[Maryms]

Only difference is that place does not offer express RMA option in case of DOA on any products. Just ask for a price match at the place i listed and see if they will match it.

DDR3 not much faster then DDR2 and at times is slower then DDR2 and DDR3 is 4 times the amount in price. We had this discussion before and you lost... so you lose again... /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Does that make you a real loser now.... /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

[cybolynx]

lol ... nawww .. im not a looser ...

imma skip the ddr2 .. wait for ddr3 ... and i dont care if its not faster or not cause ddr2 isnt much faster than ddr1 ...

BUT ... ddr3 will req less voltage to run and will get better once its mainstream ...

[Maryms]

How So?

DDR3 will be running similar Volts and when Ocing them they will also require more Volts just like DDR2 is ... so you lose again.

DDR3 is not worth it to upgrade to until it comes down to DDR2 pricing.

[cybolynx]

yeah but im not running ddr2 now am i ... so ddr2 is worthless to me ... and then again im not going ddr2 ... cause intel is dropping it .. and amd will be soon to follow ...

[Maryms]

They will not drop such memory for at least another year as if they did they would lose millions in sales as millions of people will not upgrade to DDR3 cause of the prices right now.

You lose again... /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

MAN .. DDR3 = LOSER in prices and performance.

[cybolynx]

[Maryms]

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: CyboLynx</div><div class="ubbcode-body">yeah for now ... but once its MAIN STREAM those prices will drop ....</div></div>

Yeah maybe $50.00 on sale for 2-3 months then drop to maybe $100.00 off in regular price in 6 months after the initial $50.00 sale months = 8 months after main stream. That is a long time from now maybe 2009.
