How We Track Prices

Data Sources

RamRadar tracks RAM prices from live retailer sources: eBay, Newegg, and B&H Photo. We use a combination of official retailer APIs and automated data collection to keep pricing current.

eBay and Newegg pricing comes from their official APIs (eBay Browse and the Rakuten Advertising feed), with B&H Photo collected automatically — giving accurate, up-to-date prices across thousands of DDR4 and DDR5 memory kits.

Update Frequency

Prices are updated on a regular schedule to balance freshness with reliability:

• Newegg: every hour via the Rakuten Advertising feed
• B&H Photo: a few times a day
• eBay: a few times a day via the Browse API
• Community deals: Every 30 minutes from Reddit

What We Track

For every RAM kit in our database, we collect and display:

• Current price — The latest price from each retailer
• All-time low (ATL) — The lowest price we've ever recorded
• All-time high (ATH) — The highest recorded price
• Price history — Full historical chart with 30d, 90d, 180d, 1y, and all-time views
• Price per GB — Calculated value metric to compare kits of different sizes
• Deal score — Our 1-10 rating based on ATL proximity, price trend, and value

Price Alerts

Set a target price on any product and we'll email you when the price drops to or below your target. Alerts are checked every hour when new prices arrive. We never share your email address — it's used solely for price notifications.

Accuracy Commitment

We strive for the highest accuracy in our pricing data. Prices shown are typically within minutes of the latest available data. However, retailer prices can change at any time — always verify the final price on the retailer's website before purchasing. If you notice a pricing discrepancy, please let us know.
