High RAM prices are now eating into my profit margins. I typically buy around £100-£200 worth of RAM a month but I am now finding I can't pass on the full cose to my clients.
I am also getting very little discount on RAM. If I spent £100 on RAM I would expect maybe £4 discount.
I probably pay the cheapest price possible without buying it in bulk but its still far too expensive. An example if a Windows Vista machine running slow, it has two DDR slots on the motherboard with 2 x 512MB sticks in it. To upgrade I really need to make the machine 2GB. Now the computer may be three-fours old. 2 x 1GB of decent DDR2 will cost me £40 so the buy the time I have done a tune up etc the cost to client can easily be £80 and they won't see this as good value :(.
I don't think the price has anything to do with DD3 because DDR has not got any more expensive.
