Over the last few months, Framework has been doing a pretty good job of keeping RAM prices for its modular laptops\/mainboards\/desktops from climbing too high as a result of the global memory shortage<\/a>, though storage hasn’t fared quite so well<\/a>. And now, RAM unfortunately isn’t faring so well, either.<\/p>\n

The company explains in its monthly memory and storage pricing update<\/a> that its memory module supplier has raised its prices substantially. And unfortunately it’s to the extent that Framework isn’t going to be able to eat the extra cost.<\/p>\n

“We recently received a cost update from our LPCAMM2 supplier that goes far beyond anything we had predicted and anything we\u2019re able to absorb without placing our ability to operate at real financial risk. Rather than the low-to-mid double digit percentage increase we had forecast from Q2 to Q3 on LPCAMM2 costs, we received prices that are more than double that of the prior inventory we had brought in.”<\/p>\n
