First cheap Chinese DRAM, next hopefully cheap Chinese GPUs. The arrogance of big US and Taiwanese tech companies pays off for consumers in the end.

In the short-term. Yes. Long-term though China is still a state with their own bourgeoisie. They will turn protectionist and exclusionary the moment they think it makes sense. It's nothing unique to the United States even if we are one of the biggest examples currently.

It absolutely will be nice in the short-term at least to see the cartels get their comeupance for a short time.

Isn’t most RAM produced in South Korea these days?

Yes. I was thinking of Samsung and then I said Taiwan. Brain fart
