DDR4 production is winding down industry-wide, and used DDR4 memory is trading at a real premium as a result.
Memory manufacturers have been shifting production capacity toward DDR5 and away from DDR4, which means the supply of new DDR4 is shrinking even as some servers and platforms still depend on it. That combination — falling new supply, ongoing demand — is exactly the setup that makes used DDR4 worth sourcing right now instead of writing off as outdated.
We buy both, but they're priced differently. Registered/ECC server DDR4 (RDIMM, LRDIMM) generally commands a stronger price than unbuffered desktop DDR4, since it can't be swapped in from consumer supply. If you're not sure which you have, send us the part number printed on the module and we'll sort it out.
These are examples, not a complete list — if your part number isn't here, send it anyway.
RAM trades like a commodity — prices genuinely move day to day, and any number we printed here would be wrong by the time you read it. The two biggest factors in your quote are simple: are the modules new or are they pulls, and what the market is paying that day. Send your part numbers and quantities and we'll quote against the current market, usually within one business day.
Because memory prices move daily — a printed price would either shortchange you or mislead you. The two main things that set your quote are whether the modules are new or pulled, and the market rate the day we quote. Send part numbers and quantities for a current number.
Manufacturers are prioritizing DDR4 production cuts in favor of DDR5 and high-bandwidth memory for AI hardware, which has tightened DDR4 supply and pushed used prices up.
Yes, we buy DDR4 SO-DIMM modules from laptops and small-form-factor PCs alongside standard desktop and server DDR4.
That's fine — send us a list or spreadsheet and we'll quote the mixed lot as-is.
Send whatever detail you've got. We'll follow up directly with a quote or questions.
