Chinese memory maker CXMT knocks on DDR5 market with supply commitments, raising concerns for Samsung-SK Hynix duopoly

China\'s memory chipmaker CXMT is preparing to enter the PC DDR5 memory market, raising expectations of changes to the global supply structure led by Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix and Micron. Industry watchers say the move may matter more for diversifying supply than for lowering prices, as CXMT\'s pricing is said to be similar to rivals\'.

China-led low-spec HBM front expands, raising concerns over impact on Korean memory profits

China’s memory push is moving into high-bandwidth memory, with CXMT seeking mass production of HBM3 and reallocating 20% of capacity, or 60,000 wafers a month, to HBM. While China may struggle to catch up quickly, analysts warn the bigger risk is price disruption as legacy DRAM output shrinks and AI-focused memory expands. TrendForce expects narrowing price gaps between HBM3E and DDR5, potentially squeezing margins below HBM4.
