As the Spring Festival holiday approaches, there have been continuous reports in the domestic market of "flash crash" in memory prices, while in the North American market, the stocks of storage giants have also seen high-level adjustments. Recently, reporters visited Huaqiangbei Market, where several merchants commented on the news of a 20% drop in prices for some DDR4 memory specifications, stating that the actual price adjustments are limited. "DDR4 has increased five or six times from the end of last year to now. Now it's only dropping by a few tens of yuan. Some models of DDR4 still cost 1800 yuan, which is still expensive." Some merchants also mentioned that certain DDR specifications are currently out of stock, so they can only give a price quote. "If your computer is still functioning, it might be best not to change the memory."
