The Big Three DRAM vendors saw Q2 server revenues rise 30% in Q2 over Q1, reports DRAMeXchange, as shortages hike prices.
“Thanks to the increase in the average memory density of server systems, as evidenced by the adoption of high-density 32GB RDIMMs and 64GB LRDIMMs in this year’s first half, the profit margin of server DRAM surged,” says DRAMeXchange analyst Mark Liu.
Server DRAM supply is expected remain tight throughout the remainder of 2017.
H2 2017, server ODMs and OEMs See rising demand from data center projects.
Hynix transferred some of its manufacturing capacity from low-power DRAM production to server DRAM production to take advantage of the market. Hynix’s output will mostly be in 21nm.
Micron’s server DRAM output is currently 30% of total DRAM output and this proportion is expected to grow throughout the year.
