The contemporary mobile platform Intel allows the use of both memory type DDR-2 and DDR-3. New memory types gradually replaces old, since it possessed not only the higher storage density , but also lower energy consumption, or lower prime cost due to the use of advanced lithographic technologies.
As reports associate, acer company decided to use a part of its laptop computer DDR-2 memory , although recently it declared about the intentions to completely transfer laptop computers to the use of DDR-3 memory . At the given moment, the half of acer laptop computer is equipped with DDR-3 memory, but recently on the market arose the DDR3 memory scarcity . The Prices of DDR-3 proved to be above the prices of DDR-2 to the value from 10% to 60%, depending on contract conditions. According to the forecasts of experts, the price of DDR-3 will grow in the second-half of this year. To Taiwan memory producers this is profitable, since they predominantly release DDR-2, for which demand will now grow. With the release of Intel calpella platforms, the popularity of DDR-3 will grow, since Intel processors with the integrated memory controller can work only with this memory type . Related Products :
