DDR2 has finally dominated the DRAM market

After a long delay, both Intel and AMD built products supporting DDR2 and turned it into the most commonly used memory chip in desktop and laptop systems.

DDR2 has been on the market for a long time but it has not confirmed its position due to some temperature problems.

DDR-400 series, leading the semiconductor memory industry for the past few years, was initially considered a "filler" in the transition to DDR2. However, when DDR-400 was present in Intel's product roadmap at the end of 2002, many companies that produced PC components immediately switched to DDR-400 and delayed developing DDR2 compatible components.

AMD also "contributed" to slowing down the popularity of DDR2 when the world's second-largest microprocessor-producing group waited until the middle of this year to release the first chip to support DDR2.

However, DRAMeXchange believes that price is still a big problem for DDR2. The price of this chip has increased by 8.8% last week due to increased demand for new computers during the opening of the school.
