Trends: DRAM contract prices to continue rising in August
By
Following a rebound in contract prices last month, Nanya Technology predicts that the average contract price should grow 5% on tighter DRAM supply, according to Nanya vice president of global sales and marketing, Pei-lin Pai. Looks like DDR1 is on a steady rise while DDR2 keeps going down. From here on our DDR2 memory is no longer the memory of the future because DDR1 is getting phased out due to price alone now.
Tight supply for DDR and DDR2 will provide memory makers more bargaining power when negotiating contract prices, the paper sated. Nanya indicated that demand for DDR 400 remains strong, which should help bolster prices, Pai said. For DDR2, he noted that more than half of all PC OEM shipments now adopt DDR2.
