RAM prices might stay higher for longer than many people expect. According to insights shared by ASUS, the current DRAM shortage may not fully normalize until around 2027. And even if supply improves by then, prices may not drop quickly. A significant reason is the rapid growth in AI infrastructure. Modern AI servers require enormous amounts of memory to run large models and process massive datasets. As companies build more AI data centers, demand for DRAM continues to rise. At the same time, memory manufacturers rarely rush to cut prices. Lowering prices too early can hurt margins, so supply often stays tight until the market stabilizes. The global DRAM market is also concentrated among a few major producers: • Samsung Electronics • SK Hynix • Micron Technology Together, these companies produce most of the world’s DRAM. The AI boom isn’t just about GPUs anymore. Memory is quietly becoming one of the biggest bottlenecks in modern computing. Resource: Insights reported by ASUS ...
