American IC Exchange Expands DRAM Line With PC133 Modules; AICE Among First to Enable PC133 Purchases Direct From Web Site
Summary: 6 ALISO VIEJO, Calif., May 15, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- American IC Exchange (AICE), a global leader in the distribution of commodity semiconductors and computer products, Monday announced that it has added PC133 modules to its DRAM line. 6 Initially, AICE will offer 64 and 128M synchronous PC133 modules. As the popularity of this architecture grows, the company anticipates further expansion. 6 "Demand for PC133 products is increasing as PC manufacturers recognize the benefits of this cutting edge, high performance architecture," said Jim Binford, president of AICE. "As an alternative to RAMBUS and DDR modules, PC133 products offer high availability and lower cost. This is an attractive solution for manufacturers looking for ways to cope with a transitioning market." 6 Through its Web site, AICE offers products from a variety of manufacturers at spot marketing pricing. Today, its product line and pricing service include a wide range of commodity semiconductors including DRAM, memory modules, CPUs, flash and SRAM. This capability distinguishes AICE from its competitors and ensures its customers that they are acquiring products at fair market value. 6 In 1996, AICE launched RAMDEX, the first Internet-based service tracking DRAM pricing and changed forever how DRAM was bought and sold throughout all channels. Today, RAMDEX is recognized worldwide as the leading source of open market pricing information for the semiconductor industry. 6 Updated twice daily, RAMDEX is also the most current resource. It is relied on heavily by industry insiders including analysts and editors for accurate market intelligence. RAMDEX pricing is published by several media outlets including Bloomberg LP Financial Markets Commodities News Service, Global Sources, the Asian Wall Street Journal and the San Jose Mercury News. |
