My buddy is building a budget machine. He has everything now except ram. Just trying to see if there are any killer deals out there right now. I would look myself, but have a ton of things happening right now. Thanks guys.
DDR2 memory is so cheap right now. You can get great deals anywhere. I just picked up 2 gigs of DDR2-800 on Newegg for $65 after rebate. Check out the Patriot Extreme 2GB kit for only $80 after rebate.
Be careful though, prices have stabilized after pit-falling for 3 consecutive months. Some kits have started to pick up steam.
My personal favorite is the Crucial Ballistix DDR667, 80$/2GB. Based on Micron D9 GMH, it's the best you can get for under 100$. Runs at DDR900 5-5-5-15 and 2.1V without a problem, or at DDR700 @3-3-3-9 2.1V.
In Europe they were 80€/2GB 2 weaks ago when I've bought them, now they're 104€.
