Nvidia’s Rubin AI platform will reportedly demand more DRAM than Apple and Samsung combined

If you think memory prices are high now, just wait. A new report from Citrini Research forecasts that Nvidia’s next-generation Rubin AI platform will require than 6B GB of Low-Power Double Data Rate memory (LPDDR) in 2027. LPDDR is the low-power memory used in devices like smartphones, tablets, and ultra-thin laptops. If Citrini is correct, Nvidia could consume LPDDR memory than Apple and Samsung combined. That could spell bad news for consumers looking to upgrade phones and other personal devices, especially as rising memory costs are already affecting prices across consumer electronics.
