„RAMageddon” pune presiune pe piață tehnologiei

The rise of Artificial Intelligence is driving up the prices of essential components for electronics, particularly DRAM memory, which has increased fivefold in the past year. This surge has led manufacturers and retailers to raise prices of devices by up to 20%, with Apple increasing some laptop and tablet prices by up to $300. The gaming industry is also feeling the impact, as companies like Microsoft and Sony struggle with higher costs. Analysts predict that the chip shortage may persist until 2027, keeping prices elevated as demand for AI infrastructure grows. Consumers are advised to consider their urgency in purchasing new devices, as prices may continue to fluctuate.
