Roland Of Gilead So, just to be clear. This is an article about a new design of DDR5 DIMM that are the same or thereabouts as the existing DDR5 tech in cost!? It's from a Chinese manufacturer, who may or may not have the best quality control, or supply chain to make a dent in the current Rampocolypse. Ok…. Reply
Uuman Been calling this. They ain’t rushing to market to ease the shortage. They’re rushing to market to take advantage of the inflated pricing, regardless of quality. Anyone that thinks this is going to help is delusional. They can jump right in on the price fixing since they will face zero repercussions from governments and justify Samsung and Hynix keeping their prices higher for longer. Bc where those two are once again VERY clearly price fixing, which they’ve already been busted for, they can now honestly argue that they are just pricing their products competitively. In the long run, this likely gets CXMT banned from the US and Hynix and Samsung fined less than a penny on the dollar. Then, after 2030 at the very earliest, prices start to go down for the long term. And that’s if none of these data centers hit it big. If 1-2 do, then we’ll see many corporations doubling down. Which is why some people are predicting mid 2030s before prices normalize again. Reply
