Why are IT devices becoming more expensive? This is what is happening in the chip market
Britt Hillewaere

The market for IT hardware is under pressure due to a global shortage of RAM memory chips. This scarcity is impacting the availability and prices of various electronic products.

According to current information, this situation may unfortunately continue until 2027.


What does this mean in concrete terms?

The chip shortage may have the following consequences in the coming period:

  • Longer delivery times
  • More limited availability
  • Price increases

We are closely monitoring these developments and will continue to keep our customers informed as best we can about changes in supply, availability and delivery times.
