Wccftech reports Google reusing DDR4 modules from retired servers in AI hardware.
Wccftech states that Google is pulling DDR4 modules out of retired servers and reusing them in new AI servers. The article notes that high-performance memory now eats around 75 percent of an AI server's bill of materials. It describes this cost as forcing Google into salvage mode for components. The claim appears in a Wccftech tweet linking to its own story, which includes images of a TPU 8I chip. No first-party announcement from Google or independent corroboration is present in the packet.
