In a move that underscores the seismic shift sweeping the semiconductor industry, Micron Technology announced on December 3, 2025, that it is shuttering its iconic Crucial consumer brand—the line of RAM modules and SSDs that powered countless gaming rigs, laptops, and DIY builds for nearly three decades. Shipments will continue until February 2026 to clear inventory, with full warranty support preserved, but no new Crucial products will ever hit shelves again.
