GDDR6 Memory Demand Surge Could Be Bad News For Sony’s PlayStation 5 & Gaming GPUs

Tesla reportedly asked Samsung to sharply ramp up GDDR6 output for its vehicle systems.

Samsung expanded production, but the extra demand may tighten supply for other GDDR6 users.

That could pressure availability and prices for products like the PS5 and current-gen gaming GPUs.

Analysts warn the ripple effect may worsen memory shortages and raise spot prices.
