    Yep, I did say...
    Now that they're no longer being manufactured, the pricing for those still around is going to soar!

    You did? Selective hearing :S

    This couldn't have happened at a better time! I feel for people in a different situation, but this really benefits me :p That will definitely fund the Ram I wanna purchase! I might even try and acquire enough for 32Gb. But that is pretty extreme LOL!

    Eh hem, forget that last statement. 32Gb is stupid expensive! Plus my current board only supports 16. Guess I know what I'm getting.

    sytyguy,

    I must have selected the wrong one, because the one I looked at was about 285MB/s. Sorry about that.

    Well, as you know, you gotta be fast on some of these deals. I know I've lost out of some due to being late seeing the deals.
