They will just resell all the RAM they just purchased at 5x the cost.

Ram chips are interchangeable. It's only the interface between the chip and mainboard that differs. So they are easily removed and put onto standard dimm/sodimm boards. The processors can not completely useless either, just maybe slightly more powerful than most consumer need.

They'll try, but we're already getting by on old DDR3 chips. I imagine a few unlucky companies with no other options are screwed, but most consumers are just going to wait for the price you crash.
