The price of ram will continue to rise for months
Table of contents:
The high demand for mid-range and high-end smartphones makes RAM and NAND in short supply, so we are seeing a rise in the prices of PC memory modules and SSDs. The bad news will continue as the upward trend in prices is going to continue for several months.
The price of RAM will take time to stabilize
The arrival of the new Intel Kaby Lake processors and the imminent arrival of the AMD Ryzen processors is going to cause that the main manufacturers put on the market new preassembled equipment so that the shortage of RAM and NAND will be even greater, especially in the case of RAM. With this, the availability of RAM chips will be even lower, so the prices of PC memories will continue to increase for at least another half year.
We recommend our guide to the best memories for PC.
This rise will continue to affect both DDR4 and DDR3 since both standards are the most used in the bulk of smartphones that hit the market. Pei-Ing Lee, President of Nanya Technology, says that prices for PC RAM will continue to rise until the second quarter of 2017, when they should start to stabilize.
With this, if you are thinking of updating or expanding the RAM of your computer, we recommend that you buy the new memories as soon as possible, because each day that passes will be more expensive.

The price of ram memories will continue to rise in 2017
In 2017 the price of RAM memories will increase over the months by the main manufacturers, Samsung, Hynix and Micron.
The dram and nand memory will continue to rise in price
It will not be until 2018 when the supply of DRAM and NAND chips increases and therefore prices begin to decrease appreciably.
The price of ram will not only not drop in 2018 but will continue to rise
The increase in the price of silicon wafers will cause the price of RAM and SSDs to continue to grow in 2018.
