## Intel's PC Market Decline
Intel expects PC consumption to fall low double digits percent for all of 2026, impacted by rising memory prices and constraints.

> Intel's management expects PC consumption to fall low double digits percent for all of 2026, impacted by rising memory prices and constraints.
## CXMT's Threat to Micron
CXMT's added capacity targets DRAM pricing, which Micron sets through high margins.

> CXMT's added capacity takes aim at exactly that pricing.
## Micron's Take-or-Pay Contracts
Micron has signed 26 Strategic Customer Agreements covering over 35% of revenue through 2030, all with take-or-pay volumes.

> Micron has signed 26 Strategic Customer Agreements covering over 35% of revenue through 2030, all with take-or-pay volumes.
## Intel's Exposure to Cheaper Chips
If CXMT supply grows, cheaper DRAM could lower PC and server costs and help Intel's client business recover.

> Intel's exposure runs in the other direction. If CXMT supply grows, cheaper DRAM could lower PC and server costs and help Intel's client business recover.
## Key takeaway

CXMT's new server memory product could hurt Micron's pricing power more than Intel's PC business.
