DDR3 price is 3 times higher than DDR2 price
Kingston has become the first DRAM manufacturer to announce the price of DDR3 products. Accordingly, DDR3 prices will be three times higher than current DDR2 prices.
According to Kingston's new product price announcement at Computex, the lowest price for a DDR3 2GB RAM is $ 443 and the highest price is up to $ 708 depending on the speed of the memory chip.
The Kingston representative said the price is the recommended retail price. In fact, when the market is launched, the price may be a little cheaper.
Analysts predict the market will start switching to DDR3 sometime in mid-2009. Kingston thinks this transition will take place sooner. However, this depends much on the choice of PC manufacturers.

The product price is 1,066MHz, which is slightly lower. The 2GB version is priced at $ 443 and 1GB costs $ 228. The product operates at 1,333MHz at the highest price. The 2GB version is available for $ 708, 1GB for $ 373 and 512 for $ 187.
