Crucial 512MB PC3200 400Mhz DDR

Not sure when this sale ends. Crucial, one of the leaders in memory, has this memory on sale at Newegg for $78/stick. Probably one of the hottest memory deals out there right now.

Link for the lazy.

For the ignorant among us, what sort of backward compatibility in this PCnnnn DDR memory market?

In otherwords, if this is a hot deal, could this item be used instead of earlier / slower sticks?

Yes, pc3200 just means it's capable of ___ MHz. It can go lower.

 

[memize]

wow it went down $2

It's not a bad deal, but not much to get excited about. Crucial is good stuff, but it's also CAS 3; there's a Mushkin stick that does 2.5 for only a dollar more.

 

[PinchyCM]

those sticks are advertised for 2.5, but i hear they're not.

I grabbed one of these.. looks good =) Of course, it isn't the best deal, so I'm not grabbing the two more sticks of 3200 RAM that I need,

Pretty good price. But I'm going to wait. I heard memory prices should be bottoming out again in a month or two, because of over-supply. If PC3200 512MB, hits $30-40, then I'll buy.

512mb Corsair Value @ cas2.5 for $85

I've been looking at this for the AMD64/ASUS promo deal. NE has several 512 PC3200 sticks in the $76-$80 range. Some peeps said they received Elixir CAS 3 on their Mushkin sticks. Most people around here will not be able to tell a difference in performance between CAS 2.5 and 3 according to an article I read that was posted around here awhile back. Maybe I'll do like MrCoyote and wait until prices bottom out. I can use some PC2700 until then.

There really is no need to thread crap. Stop trolling.
