DDR4 memory will rise 12.5% ​​this quarter

If we were telling you this weekend that DDR4 memories will not drop in price until 2019. Rumors grow stronger with this increase from 12.5% ​​to 18.2% at the end of the year.

The big memory companies Samsung, Hynix and Micron are having trouble manufacturing memories: defects and improving 18nm and 17nm manufacturing processes. The worrying thing is that only DDR4 memories and SSDs will be affected (to a lesser extent), while the increase in the price of mobile or smartphone memories will be much less affected.

Looking at some everyday examples we will find that an 8 GB kit at 3200 MHz currently costs 97 euros, it is assumed that with the increase it will stay at 110 euros . A 16GB kit that is currently worth 140 euros, will go up to 157.50 euros and a 32GB kit that costs 267 euros will cost about 300 euros . A real crazy price and that will go up rapidly throughout the year. Companions… Now is the time to buy RAM!
