The Joker
Thread Killer MKII
Prices of computer memory have been increasing in the recent months due to undersupplying by the the leading manufacturers. Micron Technology, the world’s third supplier of dynamic random access memory (DRAM), claims that the limited production of memory will persist throughout caledar 2013 and 2014. Do not expect cheap memory in foreseeable future, says Micron.
“[DRAM market] supply dynamics in particular appears to be healthy looking forward. We believe the DRAM industry wafer capacity will be down in both 2013 and 2014 and process technology upgrades are being stressed out, thereby reducing supply growth compared to historical trends,†said Mark Durcan, chief executive officer of Micron, during a conference call with financial analysts.

Just more bad news for consumers, its already a struggle getting hold of certain brands at the moment.
Because of this prices have increased dramatically. The price on some 8GB kits have gone up by R200 in one go.
