DDR5 already facing production issues in wake of global chip shortages

Citiraj:

DDR5 is being directly impacted by the current logistics issues due to lack of adequate Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) chips - which DDR5 has integrated in the DIMM proper. Currently, lead times for PMIC orders are estimated at 35 weeks, placing additional strain on system assemblers and DRAM manufacturers - and forcing delays and bottlenecks throughout the supply chain. Additionally, the fact that PMIC chips for DDR5 are ten times as expensive as equivalent DDR4 power management solutions doesn't bode well for future price action on DDR. Should this situation continue, higher prices for DDR5 modules are to be expected due to a deteriorating supply/demand ratio - particularly relevant if you're thinking about putting together a build based on Intel's Alder Lake platform.

Fast memory: Samsung talks about DDR6, DDR6+ and GDDR7

Citiraj:

With DDR6, the doubling continues and for DDR6 up to 12,800 MT/s are planned, for DDR6+ it should be 17,000 MT/s. Samsung is working with other JEDEC members from DRAM and SoC manufacturer circles to complete the DDR6 standard, which is currently scheduled for 2024. In the run-up, one of SK Hynix's chief engineers had indicated that it could take a little longer with this generation. Samsung now admits that it is still in the"early stages of development"of DDR6. The number of memory channels per module is to increase to four with DDR6 and thus be doubled again compared to DDR5. The number of banks also increases by a factor of two to 64, which in turn means four times that of DDR4.
