The price of vram rises 30%

Bad news for users. Throughout the month of July the prices of graphics card RAM memory have risen significantly. A rise of 30%. In a month they have gone from costing $ 6.50 to currently cost about $ 8.50. Although they are still not large quantities, the rise is more than remarkable.

The price of VRAM rises 30%

The price rise has been visible in the two market leaders, Samsung and SK Hynix. In large part, the price increase is due to the fact that both companies are focusing a large part of the production that they allocated to VRAMs for other types of memory, in this case for servers and phones.

More rises expected

This decision has caused said price increase. So users will not be very happy with these decisions that both companies have made. In addition, it must be taken into account that Samsung produces 55% of the VRAMs that exist in the world. While SK Hynix produces 35%. So both are the clear dominators of the market.

But the worst part of all is that prices are expected to rise again in September. And there are already voices that suggest that the price increase in that month will exceed 30% of the rise that has occurred now. So if we continue like this, we will see how prices multiply.

There were sources saying that Samsung was going to expand VRAM production around the last quarter of the year. Although it seems that this will not be the case, since it is said that they are producing more in this third quarter and thus reduce production at the end of the year. We will see how prices evolve in the coming weeks.
