The DRAM market in 2026 is no longer moving as a single cycle.
DDR5 prices are finally declining at the retail level, driven by weakened consumer demand, inventory liquidation, and improved AI memory efficiency. At the same time, enterprise demand continues to surge as massive AI infrastructure investments absorb global supply.
This isn’t a crash—it’s a divergence:
Retail prices are correcting
Enterprise pricing remains elevated
Structural supply pressure still exists
Understanding this split is critical for making the right buy or sell decisions in today’s hardware market.
