    I have huge hopes fox CXMT entering the market and at least offsetting this nightmare. Just this week i've paid ~$1k USD for 2x32G DDR5 ECC, insane.

      They don't have the infrastructure to meet global demand.

        Depends on what kind of memory you are talking about.

        For DRAM, CXMT were only 1% of the global supply 3 years ago, and are now already 10%. They are growing extremely rapidly.

        If you are concerned about consumer memory - smartphones, laptops, desktops, then this is what CXMT are making. CXMT do make HBM too, for AI accelerators, but their volume there is held back by sanctions.
