• Samsung hikes prices of server chips by 30% to 60%
• Steep price hikes seen adding to stress for data infrastructure firms
• But a boon for Samsung who has lagged rivals in advanced AI chips

Samsung Electronics this month raised prices of certain memory chips - now in short supply due to the global race to build AI data centres - by as much as 60% compared to September, two people with knowledge of the hikes said.

The move follows the world's biggest memory chipmaker's decision to delay a formal announcement of pricing for supply contracts in October, they said, adding that pricing details are typically announced each month.
