6GB DDR3 kits getting cheaper than DDR2

FUD Zilla spotted that the price of 6GB DDR3 memory has dropped below the price of DDR2. The site also notes that prices of DDR2 memory modules are slowly starting to rise.
We took a look at current memory prices and DDR3 6GB kits are no longer a premium product as their price has dropped below the €100 mark. We are not taking about Kingston's ValueRAM line that has dropped below €80 a while back, as today you can buy some quality DDR3-1333 6GB kits with CL7 latencies.

You can choose between several manufacturers depending on your taste and all of them are mostly listed at below €100. For example, OCZ's Platinum Low-Voltage 6GB kit working at 1333MHz with CL 7-7-7-24 latencies retails at €87,39 at Mix-Computer.de. Patriot's similar Viper kit retailing at around €90, and Corsair's XMS3 1.5V kit can be found for €94,67. These are all high quality kits with lifetime warranty.
