holy crap ram prices! ddr cheaper than sdr

checked canadacomputers (local store here in toronto with great prices)

check this (cdn prices):

512MB PC-133 $100
512MB PC-2100 $90

now my question is considering the price has dropped dramatically lately, will it continue to fall?

hey I know it's off the Ax subject, but my PC takes 133 RAM - but it says it maxes at 512 (2 slots...2 x 256) Does anyone know what would happen if I dropped one OR two 512 Mb chips in?

You might just end up wasting your money and your mobo wouldnt recognize the module cuz of the size. I have seen it happen although there may be an update for the bios on your mobo that would enable you to put the 512 module in. I updated my bios and I can now update to a P4 with Hyper Threading Tech. :D
check out your mobo site and find the latest bios. Or just go to best buy and purchase a 512 mod. and if it works order the much cheaper module from newegg or whatever and return the module to Best Buy for your money back. If it dont work then....
