[World DRAM Price] 128MB DIMM Spot Prices Rise More Than 5 Pct. July 19, 2000 (TOKYO) -- Spot prices of 128MB dual inline memory modules (DIMM) rose more than 5 percent in the world's three major markets. In the United States, the module prices rose 6.99 percent to US$126.85, making DIMMs too expensive to be used for the so-called US$1,000 PC as the standard specifications. The introduction of 128MB DIMMs in PCs is expected to occur after 2001. According to a worldwide DRAM price survey conducted by ICIS-LOR, the spot prices of DIMMs (PC133) increased 6.99 percent from the previous week to US$126.85 in North America, while they rose 5.43 percent to US$125.36 in Europe, and jumped 6.41 percent to US$118.57 in Asia. The 30-day rolling average prices (from June 1 to June 30) of 128Mb DRAMs (PC133, 16M x 8) for large-volume users registered US$13.72 in North America, US$13.55 in Europe, and US$11.88 in Asia. As compared with the previous week (30-day rolling average through June 23), the price rose 2.80 percent in North America, 1.21 percent in Europe and 3.42 percent in Asia. nikkeibp.asiabiztech.com
