No, Asus isn't going into memory manufacturing — Taiwanese tech giant issues statement smashing rumor
Asus has denied rumors of entering the memory manufacturing market to address the ongoing shortage. The company clarified that it has no plans to invest in memory wafer fabrication and will continue to deepen its relationships with memory suppliers. Reports suggest that the memory market crunch may persist until at least mid-2028, with vendors not rushing to increase production due to high margins. Asus emphasized adjusting product specifications and optimizing product life cycles to meet market demands. The rumor, originating from an Iranian publication, has been debunked by Asus directly.
