It looks as though the shortage of DRAM will continue well into 2014.
A fire at an SK Hynix factory last year was primarily responsible for the run on DRAM and even though the company says that production has resumed, there is still an element of catch up.
According to Taiwanese wire Digitimes, speciality DRAM chips are particularly badly affected due to increased demand from various sectors for SDRAMs.
Spot prices for DDR3 memory have risen and are expected to rise even further as the year goes on.
