Is your math really right? > DRAM makers make $10k per platter. A single line pops out 40k a month, a single fab has 20+ lines, a fab complex has up to 8 fabs.

> DRAM makers make $10k per platter. A single line pops out 40k a month, a single fab has 20+ lines, a fab complex has up to 8 fabs. Each DRAM maker has few fab complexes.
If I do this I get 10,000 * 40,000 * 20 * 8 which is $64 Billion.... per month.
Are you suggesting that the average DRAM maker should have revenue of $64 Billion a month or $768 Billion a year?
It sounds like you know the industry and I'm looking for some additional colour here.
- baybal2 8y agomy bad, my bad. Corrected my digits. We are looking at around 20 to 30k complete DRAM waffers per fab. For god knows what reason, digits for a line and a whole fab swapped places in my head.
