Europeans have until 2027 which is when they’ll renegotiate tariffs (EU will probably follow the US’ directives, I don’t think they’ll warm up to China). But the rest of the world doesn’t have a stake in the tech trade warfare, on the consuming side at least, so Chinese ram will eat into western ram sales everywhere else in the world, like what’s happening with cars.
China’s PC component sales can’t “eat” into what doesn’t exist. Western parts producers don’t care about selling to the rest of the world. It’s all being bought up by AI and data centers. They just want to make sure the population can’t get any tech for themselves. They want all of it to be on a rent basis. They don’t want people to have access to their own PCs and devices. They want them to have to pay for space on a data farm where they can log and control all the information.
So just like the cars, the Chinese components will be banned in the west, or be hit with extreme tariffs. Primarily the US.

Yeah, I was comparing what I was talking about to a world prior to the AI bubble, not to the present state of things, my bad
