Updating your computer with new RAM could soon cost you a lot cheaper than it is now, according to a new report just published.
Report; DRAM and NAND flash prices are predicted to drop significantly over the next few months, and gamers and home builders around the world are claiming great relief.
A significant drop in prices is expected
Prices are expected to crash in the second half of 2022 as hardware floods the market following the current global chip shortage, according to a Gartner statement. Producers; It is believed that the ‘oversupply’ of memories will suffocate the market as they try to bounce back from the worldwide chip shortage in 2021. The report notes that the most likely outcome of this is a ‘substantial price cut’, which means chip prices should drop significantly.
Report; He also points out that device manufacturers such as desktop and laptop computers have increased their production of products that need memory to take advantage of the abundance of cheap chips.
Global chip shortage; a consequence of the pandemic
Garnet also states that general market conditions for 2022 will be ‘unusual’, suggesting that further price fluctuations and changes may be the norm going forward.
The global chip shortage is considered by companies in the tech world to be one of the most significant impacts of the pandemic on technology as a whole. This is seen as the result of multiple factors, starting with the shutdown of manufacturing facilities due to health protocols, and the sudden increase in demand for technological equipment, including laptops and tablets, as people around the world have to work and study remotely due to the lockdown.
