MarcusarilliuS Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I bought the TW3X4G1800C8DF kit when it came out and was recently thinking of buying the same again to go to 8gb but notice the price has doubled in 2 years!!! How can this be? aren't things supposed to get cheaper over time? Can't figure this one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wired Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 IC prices fluctuate constantly. That memory in particular is probably more expensive because I think it hasn't been made in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusarilliuS Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 Thanks for the replies guys. Just thought it was strange that the price has doubled over past 2 years. Just my luck :D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
