Laptop Memory

[JAS21]

Guys, some of you must have recently upgraded your laptop memory. I’m looking for two one Gig sticks of 200 Pin SODIMM DDR2 PC2-5300 CL5 (667)..laptop memory. I would prefer matched, but if two of you have got one stick each then that would be ok. Please PM me if you can help. I know that I can try Pantip but thought I'd try here first..............thanks

I just upgraded my laptop *TO* 2X1gig for W7.

Good luck (and stay away from pornspam Panthip!)

DDR2 memory prices have sky-rocketed over the last month or so. About double the price as they were a month ago.

I ordered a GB stick for my laptop priced at 663 baht. The dealer got back with me and said the price had just gone up to 1,363 baht. Why? I have no idea.

^ Increased demand caused by W7 maybe.

The accepted answer seems to be that the manufacturers are focusing on DDR3, and so production of DDR2 has slowed right down.

Seem to remember the same thing (rapid price increase) occurred with DDR400 when DDR2 starting becoming popular.
