DRAM makers slashing DDR2 prices to clear out inventory
By
In an attempt to stimulate demand and clear out inventory, several DRAM makers have slashed the spot prices for their 512Mbit DDR2 eTT parts to a new low, according to sources.
Analysts hold the viewpoint that DDR2 prices will continue to fall in the near future, as DRAM buyers will be cautious in buying parts since DDR2 supported chipset supply from Intel is still unstable. Spot prices for the segment have slumped to US$3, down from US$3.5 before, according to research firm InSpectrum. The situation comes as DRAM makers that do not sell NAND flash have to continue to lower prices for their DDR2 memory, sources said.
