When DDR3 was first released, you'd have thought it was handcrafted from a block of solid gold it was so expensive.
While the price isn't high enough to make King Solomon blush anymore, it's still a fairly hefty investment. If you're spending so much, you want something to show for your money, but memory performance is harder to quantify than CPU or graphics chipset performance.
If you're planning on upgrading to Intel's new Core i7 micro architecture, then DDR3 is going to be an essential part of your system, but even for those sticking with P45, DDR3 is still very much a requirement.

Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.

Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
ddr3 ftw!
So DDR3 is all I can buy. Thankfully, the performance is top notch for graphics rendering.
Still not sure on DDR3, well not until the price goes down that is. DDR2 still gives you good performance for a cheap price though.
Wow, I still don't know any more about DDR3 than I could find shopping for modules on newegg.
