The 1Q26 DRAM market has entered a seller-driven super-cycle fueled by robust AI demand. Capacity crowding is triggering broad price surges, with forecasts being revised upward. As manufacturers prioritize high-margin server orders, the PC and consumer sectors face severe shortages and soaring costs.

Key Highlights

  • Market Trend: A distinct seller's market prevails. AI-driven capacity displacement is fueling aggressive price hikes across contract and spot markets, with forecasts being revised upward.
  • Supply Side: Manufacturers prioritize high-margin server output amidst low inventory, causing severe supply contraction for traditional specifications and restricted selling strategies.
  • Demand Impact: While CSPs secure supply via long-term contracts, PC and mobile OEMs face soaring costs and shortages. Panic buying risks compressing margins and dampening terminal shipments.
  • Outlook: Upstream suppliers benefit significantly, whereas downstream players face immense cost pressures, creating risks of demand destruction due to high prices.
