Dell agrees, the memory crisis will continue in 2027 and will leave a worse year than 2026
The current memory crisis It is leaving a complicated year 2026 for consumers in terms of component prices. A year that server and data center manufacturers are also suffering, as they accumulate orders without being able to be served due to a shortage of HBM or DRAM memory. Dell believes that this situation will not improve in 2027, but rather that next year will be worse than the current one.
Dell warns that memory shortages will worsen in 2027
It was Michael Dell himself who declared this situation before The Wall Street Journal, stating that the situation will be worse in the next year. Data center expansion continues and is depleting supplies of HBM memory and DRAM. The solutions seem to be far away, since construction of new factories takes at least 4 years. Thus, productions with greater volume will not arrive until at least 2029 or 2030.
Dell has no problem with the lawsuit, since it currently has its longer delay in server deliverysince the company has orders worth 95 billion dollars that he has not been able to deliver due to memory. Dell is coping by purchasing memory closer to final assembly, as well as signing long-term purchase agreements.
Micron and SK Hynix also do not expect an improvement in the short term
A situation that coincides with other great experts in the industry, since Micron Nor does he believe that the situation will improve in 2027 or even 2028. SK Hynix has also cited 2030 as the year until which this current crisis and lack of memory will extend.
This has caused RAM memory prices have multiplied by 5 in less than a yearwhile graphics cards with the highest amount of VRAM have also reached an unpayable price of up to 10,000 euros. Prices for server and data center components are not much better.
The crisis also makes PCs and other components more expensive
Manufacturers have also been forced to raise the prices of other components and peripherals due to the current situation. Dell has raised the prices of its PCs by up to 20% by the end of 2025and also plans to raise the price of the monitors during this month. The worst thing is that prices seem like they will continue to rise in 2027. Far from stabilizing, we will find ourselves in a worse situation that will last throughout next year.
