Is it true that Corsair fumbled the ball when making the transfer to DDR3? And that Patriot is owning the RAM Market now?

Good to see there is another person who sees the value in Super Talent memory.

I have a stick of DDR400 1GB Supertalent memory. It is a great stick of memory... Runs cool and great.

DDR2 is still the standard... DDR3 will become more popular when more DDR3 boards come out, prices drop, and cas latencies drop.

Not enough boards support DDR3. DDR2 is still the dominating RAM on the market. I think if some of the companies released DDR3 later it would have more success. Also it is ridicoulosly priced.
