RAM Prices

Last summer after classes were over, I bought computer parts off Newegg.ca to make myself a new computer. I purchased a pair of G.SKILL RAM sticks for a total of 4GB and thought I was the king.









Boy was I wrong. Months later RAM prices started to drop like a rock. 24 GB of Corsair DDR3 1600 RAM is selling on Newegg.ca right now for $147. The price of that RAM is $6.1 per GB. The RAM I purchased cost me $27.5 per GB. It's crazy to think in only a year and a half the price of RAM has dropped that much. We are only a couple years away from DDR4 RAM so get ready for even LOWER DDR3 prices, that is unless you actually still care about DDR3 when that happens!
