The last few months have seen the computing industry shift in a massive way. On one hand, we've seen the likes of the Intel Core Ultra Series 3 chip deliver a huge boost in local performance on a laptop (especially for integrated graphics), and on the other, the RAM crisis is causing prices on tech to skyrocket.
The key factor connecting it all? The push for AI. With the largest memory manufacturers shifting priorities to allow AI data centers to flourish, with even Micron stating, "DRAM shortages could persist for quite some time now," it's become clear that PCs, phones, gaming consoles and everything in between will become a premium as soon as this year. Heck, there's even a scare that some of Nvidia's RTX 50-series GPUs are on their way out.
