$500 for only 2 gigs of ram is expensive, doesnt matter what year it is.

the problem with DDR3 is theres no mid ground.
for $300 you get garbage ram.
for $400 you get slightly better garbage.
for $500 you can get some great ram.... but only 2 gigs of it.

want 4 gigs? then your looking at $700 to $800 for only ok stuff...

theres just no good mid grade ram/price.
so whoever said "a DDR3 board only, would sell less - they know that" or something like that, they hit the spot dead on.
