Samsung is set to prioritize the production of high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips as it outsources its dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) manufacturing completely. Sources reveal that the electronics giant is in talks with manufacturing partners to expand DDR5 production, freeing up internal capacity for HBM production. This move aims to capitalize on the surging demand for HBM chips driven by the rapid growth of the AI industry.
Samsung is actively seeking to grow its exposure to HBM while reducing the capacity dedicated to lower-value DRAM products. Discussions are reportedly underway with manufacturing partners in India, Vietnam, and the Philippines to accelerate DDR5 production and increase outsourced manufacturing capacity. While this transition could potentially heighten pressure on the conventional DDR5 market due to its already tight supply, Samsung is primarily concentrating on bolstering HBM capacity and relying on external partners for conventional DRAM production.
